To add to my previous post...
Perhaps one would view that viewing an event taped on the Sabbath would be "ok-ing" it in a sense or approving the breaking of the Sabbath by viewing it. But then i wonder if that would differ from eating a meal prepared on the sabbath or as daniel said "watching news that occured on the sabbath". If i took enough time i could make a huge list of things that were probably done on the sabbath that we would be involuntarily supporting.
But i think that if one chooses to observe the sabbath then that person is the one responsible to keeping it. Therefore using the sabbath for anything other than the Lord would be breaking it, no?
It reminds me of the verse

Now this verse is talking about food of course but it came to mind. Can it apply to other things aside from food? I am led to believe so. In this case of sabbath observence i think that certainly some people are led to observe it and others are not.
Some people feel led to follow certain things and they should by all means follow as led.
Perhaps my stance will change as i investigate the matters of Sabbath observence but that investigation is for another time.
Sorry that my previous post was not as indepth. I think i better conveyed my thoughts with this one.
