FSM Blogger

Here is a crazy thought. What if all this blogging, facebooking, myspacing, etc. is actually a bad idea? What if in the long run it turns out to be one of the causes of disconnect we currently are experiencing in this world? (disconnect from intimate community vs. world wide community) What if an entire generation grow up experiencing community through the screen and keys of a computer? What if we learn how to have simple conversations with those around us? What if we forget that people are actually more important that machines?(I know that one was a bit cheesy but think about it) What if we would rather send an email than get up, walk 5 feet and talk with someone in person? What if we create an environment that allows people to say anything they want, in any way, as much as they want regardless of how hurtful it is? What if we forget how to tell stories live and in person? What if we forget that our story is connected to a larger story? What if we let web pages and keyboard shortcuts dominate that story? What if we replace authentic live worship experiences with piped in video versions?

What if....
