Recently got back into watching Babylon 5. I've owned the first season DVD for years. So long ago in fact, that I thought it was the entire series (not just the 1st season). I've finished Season 1... now what?
Thank you, eBay! Found seasons 2-5, same issue as my season 1, $25 for the whole bunch. That's $6.25/season, and since each season is 6 DVDs, $1.04/DVD.
Streaming media companies may continue to fuck right off, without me. 🤣

They completely lost me when they refused to allow gay clergy. I'm CIS, but that destroyed my faith. And once I started critically examining all of it (the Bible, bottom to top)... I realized I was done. Done defending all of it. The only defense of the Old Testament is the life of Jesus, because it replaces the Old Testament. (If you don't understand what I mean, perhaps you should read your Bible more, especially the New Testament?)

There's nothing wrong with Jesus, or his teachings. The problem is those who profess to be his followers, while emulating none of his life's example. I say this as an Atheist who was raised in the United Methodist Church... and those congregations are far from the worst examples.
