How do you publicly burn an MP3?
If their faith is fragile enough to be influenced by modern media, probably not.Should Christians watch Game of Thrones?

On a related note, there's an ongoing drama/conflict/tempest in a tea pot about whether Catholics should do yoga. The dogmatic element mitigating against it is that such activities might open up a believer to allowing Eastern religion seep in.
Now, regarding GoT, it was recommended to me by someone who is usually a great reference point for me on entertainment. He did offer a caveat that if I couldn't make it through the first episode, then I'm not going to like it. But, if I could, then I'd probably really love it.
I didn't make it through the first episode. Almost to the end, but not quite. Did not find it entertaining enough to overlook the absurdly non-entertaining parts.
I can't picture Christ sitting down for an hour of gratuitous nudity/language/violence. Maybe that's my narrow-minded Baptist coming out. Darn baptists.

Love the Babylon Bee.
Read your linked blog post. Very interesting; I liked it.
Pertinent to GoT, Lot remained righteous. He didn't speak up against the moral decay, but he also didn't join it. And at least some of his family members were more like him.
So, perhaps not the intended lesson from the blog, but the idea is that it is possible to remain righteous amongst the filth.
Of course, temptations are tempting. Its in the name. If the righteousness is not strong enough, or rather, WHEN it wanes (not really "if"), is the person strong enough to resist/repent.
