Despite these comments of people trying to convince you to change your mind because the Roosh Hours benefitted them in some way, you are doing God’s will by giving up an activity that was sinful for you. I personally have been enjoying the Roosh Hours, but I do agree with what you’re saying about dwelling on the negative news. I’m seeking out negative information quite a bit myself and I’m starting to realize that it is no longer edifying. I understand the basics of the “agenda” and who the main players are. It is enough information for me to be able to avoid taking the vaccine and to avoid fear and prejudice against Russian people due to these current events, for example. I trust God will allow me to see the truth of things enough that I can make the correct personal choices. That is sufficient for me to live my life. Anything extra is a drain to be honest.
As always, thanks for being spiritually honest with yourself and with us. It takes a lot of maturity to realize that an activity that seems beneficial is actually flaring your passions. Last year, I quit attending a specific alcohol recovery meeting because it was mostly male and the attention I received made me start to act like my old self. I also sensed a demonic presence within in the meeting of lust and pride, perpetuated by specific members. One day, I saw what Was happening and I stopped going. Some people told me that I was wrong and just making excuses because I “need to go to meetings”, but in that case I was able to see that that situation was a trigger for me to act the way I did before I rededicated my life to Christ. I don’t regret giving it up. A sin isn’t always “black and white” and based on the activity alone. A specific activity that is a sin for me may not be a sin for someone else.
