Still Valley 3/3

The Twilight Zone (S3 Ep76) Original airdate: Nov 24, 1961

Set during the American Civil War, it opens with two Confederate soldiers. They have been assigned to scout on the Union army that is marching into the valley below. Sergeant Joseph Paradine hears the army approaching but suddenly the sound stops. He decides to descend into the valley to see for himself but his companion refuses to come..

(opening narration) The time is 1863, the place the state of Virginia. The event is a mass blood-letting known as the Civil War, a tragic moment in time when a nation was split into two fragments, each fragment deeming itself a nation. . . This is Joseph Paradine, Confederate cavalry, as he heads down toward a small town in the middle of a valley. But very shortly, Joseph Paradine will make contact with the enemy. He will also make contact with an outpost not found on a military map - an outpost called the Twilight Zone..

I believe I saw them. They

re now dressed as state road workers working on I-81 in Virginia. . Not a one of them moving a muscle.

So they'd rather lose than do the devil's work? Can't say the same for politicians.

Cop out ending, again.

@philipsidney also, what a bunch of blinded people fail to realize is that slavery is 'alive and kickin' to this day. need proof? look around. sure, slavery has been "abolished", and that makes slaves content and think they're free when actually they never were.

@Abena20 yes, it's too bad the great TZ was used for propaganda occasionally.

@MrViTopol The Bible is a load of crap, but my point is, Christians ignore the bad parts of the Bible and claim to be more moral than unbelievers

[MrViTopol]

@Abena20 bible permits slavery.

Respond to this video Re: "This is idiotic. They held slaves but were afraid to revoke the name of God. Typical religious hypocrisy."

There's no hypocrisy here. Christianity is based on the Bible, and the Bible condones slavery. The O.T. lays out a few rules about how slaves should be treated. The NT exhorts slaves to obey their masters; and masters, to be humane towards their slaves. Nowhere in the Bible does it say that slavery 'per se' is wrong, and/or that it should be abolished.

This is idiotic. They held slaves but were afraid to revoke the name of God. Typical religious hypocrisy.
