It's a serious question


Will Facebook Kill the Church?

The saddest thing is that this is even a question. I'm dismayed at the current culture that points to online, digital 'relationships' as real relationships, in the same terms as face-to-face, person-to-person involvement. Everyone knows the risks about computers and the internet. How can a relationship online be real when, on the internet, no one knows you're a dog? (New Yorker cartoon. A classic.)
