Blogging is good for the PCA. I don’t primarily mean the second-order blogging that reports on other blogs. I mean every teenager in every congregation needs to be given and encouraged to use a Xanga account (by the way, have I ever mentioned my aesthetic revulsion to everything about Xanga, including the name?). Sooner or later everything comes out in the open and can be dealt with.
As a national phenomenon, blogging is amazing. We all want to protect our privacy, but give us a tool and we will reveal everything about ourselves in open forums.
Are we really lonely or what?
I wholeheartedly agree. I pray that this situation is being dealt with and not defended and swept under the rug.
I love that some of my students have Xanga accounts … I just wish they posted more. :oP
I was just reflecting on the way that Ecclesiastes “Even in your thought, do not curse the king,
nor in your bedroom curse the rich,
for a bird of the air will carry your voice, or some winged creature tell the matter.” can be fulfilled by being one’s own little bird
I’m all for massive blogging, as long as its not anonymous. I know a few of the youth in my church do it, but particularly for the young, I think its best if they don’t do it secretly.
