Walking through Chapters tonight (and maybe this makes me a geek but I think it's one of the coolest places on earth) and I saw a book titled: "What The Internet Is Doing To Our Brains". This book should be one word long: NOTHING! The internet isn't doing anything to your brain, fast food isn't making you fat and smoking isn't killing you. It's your choices that are doing this! Do things in moderation. Don't spend all your time doing something that you choose to do and then blame the thing for the consequences. Take some personal responsibility.
"If you don't like how things are, change it. You're not a tree." Jim Rohn

I agree with the sentiment overall but I think it is fair to say that the "sin" companies offer very little to the greater good. They wouldnt exist if there wasnt demand but i think it is naive to think they have no culpability.
ReplyDeleteRemember too though that when you're talking about the internet as an example it offers plenty to the greater good. To suggest that because some portion of the population uses it a certain way it is negative is unfair no?
