Should teenagers and others in the Church express themselves to the
world through blogs? Because of the obvious dangers; the clear biblical
principles that apply; the fact that it gives one a voice; that it is
almost always idle words; that teens often do not think before
they do; that it is acting out of boredom; and it is filled with
appearances of evil—blogging is simply not to be done in
the Church. It should be clear that it is unnecessary and in fact dangerous
on many levels.
Let me emphasize that no one—including adults—should
have a blog or personal website (unless it is for legitimate business
purposes).
Via metaphorge, Blogs—and God's Youth
And from over-reacting government
to over-reacting religion, we have this—blogs are
the work of the Devil (unless it's work related, then it's God's
work).
Sigh.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
