Title: Chuck Swindoll Dropped from Radio Network for “Crude, Vulgar, From the Gutter” Language
         

Huh,
Chuck Swindoll? Yes that’s not a typo. It seems even Chuck Swindoll has
been not been able to pass the Christian censors at the VCY Radio
Network. Last week, VCY released a statement telling why they have
dropped Swindoll from their stations. Among the bad words Chuck has
used since 2000 (yes, they’ve been keeping a tally for 7 years now):
buns, heck, crap, balls, and also for mentioning (and encouraging the
viewing of) the Lion King.

skipping down a bit…

Knowing this was Part 1 of a message, VCY pre-listened to the March 6,
2007 broadcast. In this message Chuck Swindoll addressed
accountability, sensitivity, purity and integrity. These virtues were
compromised when he spoke the following:

“The battle still goes on. It will never end. In fact I had my
physical the other day and Cooper who has a finger that long (pause and
lots of laughter), that long (continued laughter). And while he was up
in there said, ‘Now that’s your prostate.’ I said (Swindoll yells) ‘I
know that’. Was this anatomy class? (Laughter). He’s a very sick man.
(Laughter). Got through prostate, checked out great. I bragged about
that to Cynthia about three hours. ‘I’ve got a great prostate.’ She
said, ‘get a life, honey.’” (Laughter)

Isn’t is heresy to ignore the body and its realities?

The November 20, 2000 IFL program promoted “The Lion King” (produced
by Disney) using it as an illustration. Chuck Swindoll stated on this
broadcast,

“Now I could ruin the rest of the story for you, but rather than
doing that, I’ll urge you to go down to your local video store and rent
for yourself, ‘The Lion King’”.

At that time VCY addressed concern to IFL pointing out that
researchers who reviewed this movie stated that the one who anoints
Simba as king, was Rafiki, who happens to be a witch doctor. Rafiki
carries his magical pack on the top of his staff. Viewers are taught
throughout the movie that you can align yourself with witchcraft to
overcome evil. It is also pointed out that the movie promotes talking
to the dead (necromancy). VCY questioned IFL why they would be
promoting Disney when so many Christian ministries were warning against
it and were participating in a national boycott. No official response
came to VCY’s inquiry, only that “the comment would be passed on.”

Hey Ingrid, I think everyone should go see Finding Nemo.  I have both mentioned it and encouraged its viewing. 

And this is a heck of an example of keeping score.  Jesus might not keep a record of wrongs, but The Slice sure has a pen that loves to put checks next to names.s

On the January 3, 2001 edition of IFL Chuck Swindoll used an
illustration of Art Linkletter talking to a boy whose father is a
police officer. Art asked if the boy’s mother was bothered by this, the
boy responded and Chuck emphasized, “Heck, No!”. A couple moments later
Chuck again made great emphasis, “Heck, No!”. VCY contacted IFL stating
“heck” is slang for “hell” and that listeners were offended by this.
The IFL representative assured VCY they’d pass our comment on.
