There is an old saying “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket” which means if you drop your basket, you will likely lose all of your eggs at the same time. What humanity has done with the internet is similar. It’s not simply a source to find information anymore. It’s how we watch TV, Watch movies, listen to music, have conversations, go shopping, take pictures, take videos, get directions, book vacations, perform our work, perform our schooling, do research and pretty much everything in between. When we willingly place all of our trust in something other than God, that is idolatry. We are putting all of our eggs in one basket here and if we don’t start to turn things around quickly, that basket (The internet) is going to fall to the ground and our entire lives will be in pieces because we put our trust in a created thing, instead of the creator of all things. So I encourage you to think about this, maybe pull out the old books, CDs and DVDs from the basement or antic. Try to separate things. In the end it will be well worth it to once again see children listening to CDs, reading books, doing things other than looking at their phones. We have to try.
