At what cost are we willing to pay?
As I sat watching a show called "I caught" about things caught on the Internet and early in the morning I was listening to the "View" and one of their hosts talked about taking "You Tube" dates with her husband. She stated that they love to watch all the funny bloopers from weddings or pranks. So before the day was done I tried it, I tried to watch You tube and then watched that show "I caught". You know what, I don't get it. I don't get why people plaster themselves and family members across the Internet where anyone and everything can be done. Where rules and boundaries seem to be non existent. Where the depravity of man comes through loud and clear. And the worse part is when something does go wrong or things that are posted are used for the wrong reasons the people who posted act so surprised and offend that it happen. Man is depraved we live in a selfish sinful world. We can not utilize the things of this life time with such reckless behavior and then throw our hands up with no responsibility for what has happen. We have a responsibility to take care of what we have. We need to protect the purity of what is true and right. Or better said like this Philippians4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things. Think about the impact we would have on those we come in contact with if our minds and hearts were filled with those such things as mentioned in Philippians. The depravity of man will continue on but lets just try not to fuel the fire anymore.

every medium has the potential to be used for good or bad- and no doubt the "bad" is more obvious when we are bombarded without much guidelines/ limitatiions/ or purpose. I feel that the public aspect of the internet allows for the good too- such as this blog! I greatly appreciate your thoughts and insights- keep it up!
