Interesting approach.

I’m definitely intrigued and really can’t wait to see it.

The impact of technology on our culture is hard to quantify. We know it impacts for the good and are quick to admit it. But have we embraced the fact that there are some potential dangers with technology? It looks this movie will address this important issue. I think the misuse/overuse of technology tends to depersonalize us, putting us into a virual world where we look good and can make others look bad, among other things. You do know that I appear young and intelligent on the internet. Wherein lies the fault, though? For example, is Face Book to blame? Is it a wretched thing? Well, no. Is the keyboard on my computer to blame? The screen? My phone for alerting me? No, no, and no. You can watch it here. Categories: Current Issues Click here to cancel reply. Name (required) [...]

Nevertheless, I am hoping to be able to use it in my Worldview course.

This gets at something I’ve been ruminating on for several months now: the difficulty of practicing presence in a world mediated by screens. I keep a post-it-note of that on my laptop.

What is this part of? Is it a documentary? Is it a series? Will it be online or on DVD? Will there be material available so that it can be used as part of a group?

This has the potential to be an amazing piece for what has silently become one of the biggest pastoral care issues in our time.
