Remember, Jesus said this would happen.

“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”

They treated the Prophets and they treated Jesus the same way. Paul and Peter were thrown into prison because of it. We should not only expect but embrace this when it comes out way. The world is contrary to Jesus, it rejects Jesus. We’ve been on easy street here with our lukewarm Christianity. Now when sin has reach such a high level and we “kick back” against it, the world only points to our acceptance if sin in the past. It’s time for us to wash ourselves clean, put on sackcloth and repent and mourn in the streets and cry out to God for forgiveness. The “Cry of Sodom” is about the reach the Heavens and sudden destruction will come. Will we be the ones left behind, or will we escape like Lot did? Who cares what the TV station does. Jesus cares about our hearts and our testimony. Keep Jesus in your heart, and have the testimony of Jesus on your lips. As in the book of Joshua “Be strong and do it!”

I think Joshua had this to say...

“If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
