The advantages I would say are anything educational such as: news, national geographic, kids programs like sesame street, home and garden, cooking shows etc. You get the idea.

Anything that encourages creativity and I am thinking of our future writers and artists.

The biggest disadvantage is getting addicted to it. You won’t accept social invitations and become a couch potato. At this point you stop getting exercise and interacting.

Sitting here writing has some disadvantages.

The advantage is that my life is my own. I am the master of my own destiny and I am free to seek my own purpose instead of being a slave to religious propaganda, religious creeds, and stone age mentality. I life my life without fear of judgment upon my death. I have no fear of hell since hell does not exist. Death being the end with no afterlife motivates me to live THIS life to my advantage and and live my life up to my own potential. Disadvantages are being oppressed by religious groups. Having a god I don’t believe in waved in my face on a daily basis. The biggest disadvantage is the fact that the woman I love who is a Christian and I took 15 years to get where we are in our relationship today due to our extreme religious differences. It’s been quite a ride. Sometimes I wish I could believe simply because she and I lost so much time that could have been spent together. Life is short enough as it is without wasting over a decade.

The purpose of an essay question is to make you think deeply about something. If you are unable to think about TV and figure out the advantages/disadvantages of it, you’ve probably watched too much of it.

advantages, you can learn from watching the right programs. You can find out what is going on inthe world. You can get a weather report. Disadvantages, some watch the wrong programs and get dumb ideas in thier heads. They pick up on foul language.

+ Lear ning, relaxation, entertainment.

– Inactivity, seeing things you shouldn’t see, seeing something and thinking most people your age agree with the show, for example Friends.

depending on how much television you watch, you can gain weight from a sedentary lifestyle. You can also neglect other aspects of your life (spouse, religion, homework, exercise…etc)
