The Internet
There
is a plethora of information offered on the Internet and choices have to be
made by the individual as to which sites will be visited, viewed and valued for
adding to their knowledge bank. The Internet may even be pictured as a
"church". Each site is like a pastor/teacher preaching their views on
reality, knowledge, ethics etc. We the visitors are like the congregation. Our
mouse puts us in charge and enables us to flit from site to site as we so
desire.
We
have seen that TV only contains the opinions of people as does the psychic
hotline and what are we are seeing on the I-way is more of the same. It's
almost as if we are in the grocery store of ideas and are shopping for a
worldview. Which shelf has ideas that we can plug into our basic framework of
beliefs?
Actually
the framework of beliefs should come first and then based upon those beliefs we
should interpret all of the data life offers us and accept and/or reject it
based upon our worldview. However, since so many people do not have a basic
belief system they are turning to the Internet to see what they actually
believe on that particular day. We see people's views changing daily with no
objective basis for evaluating information. Truth is said to have become
relative; it hasn't really, but that's what people say.
Is
this the arena in which you really want to receive the answers to life's
questions? Or is there a source that Is unchanging,
eternal and authoritative that we can turn to for the answers. We believe that
source is the Bible.
