Computers, or rather, the lack thereof

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Microsoft, computers, internet, etc will more thank likely
be listed in next years UPCI Manual as a number 3 topic in 
Technology and not a number 1 like computers are listed in the 
93 handbook.  (internet is about as addicting as caffiene) :P

What are the listings in 93?

Technology
< much snipped out to save time >
1. allowed without voice of caution:
	telephone, automobile, microwave, central heating,
	printing press, photography, computer, etc...
2.  Accepted with warning:
	radio, and video
3.  rejected for use, and unsuitable for Christians in their homes:
	movie theaters, televisions.
<snip>
...As news media appear in the marketplace, the christian must not
accept usage without evaluation of their impact on his spiritual
walk with God.  We are to "walk circumspectly(looking around us),
not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days
." (Eph. 5:15-16).

<cut, pinch, poke>

Me again.....If we are to look at the top 10 list and find
ourself answering yes to the answers(I did on a few :P)
then we really need to look and see if it is effecting our
spiritual walk.  If it is, get away from it!  

As for banning microsoft, I was only joking.  But I seriously
think that the internet will and is being looked at very closely
by the UPCI.  I know of some churches already who preach it right
next to the television.  

God Bless,
