Electronic Intimacy

The voice on the other end of the phone was crying.The villain had struck again.In the age of technology and under the guise of free speech it is everywhere and accessable to everyone.It is estimated that 75-80% of men view pornography.One of reasons is that in our busy, hustle ,bustle ,world people are lonely and we have little time or energy for intimacy.
There is no such thing as electronic intimacy.It distorts reality and requires no energy or commitment.It also gives you nothing back in return.It robs us of the chance of having real intimacy.
It is time for each of  individually and collectively to rise up against pornography and those that produce it.

We have seen an erosion of values in the last 50 years. We use to begin everyday with the Lord's Prayer and the pledge of allegiance .There were 3 channels on TV No computers, no cell phones, and usually one phone .People ate together and usually only went into the bedroom to sleep.Someone always knew where the kids were and what they were doing  .I knew everyone on my street now we barely know our next door neighbors.

There is an unmistakeable allure in instant access to information.I just hope we are smart enough and wise enough to navigate though it all.
