Uhh, well, I suppose it is sort of cool but I have the same problem with this that I have with much of the social (or better: anti-social) networking tools. If this had really been what happened, Joseph would have asked his BFFs what to do instead of seeking God and they would have told him to dump the hoe… and so forth. Joseph would have changed his status and connected with another lady and the rest would not have made history…
I heard an interesting talk a few days ago about how the electronic media adiction has re-wired the brains of young people dooming many of them to ADD existences forever. I see this all around me… people have no ability to exchage a meaningful discourse with anyone anymore. Everyone just downloads their soundbyte and moves on without considering if anyone has a comment or question. If you want to talk with someone and have it be meaningful, look for someone over 50… and it will still be a crap shoot!

Inconvenient truth from the Truthinator.
Some good points that I guess I hadn’t thought about, but then I’m kinda new at this and still catching on to some of this stuff. Thanks
Interesting and creative way to see Joseph and Mary through the eyes of our culture.
Not all young people use FB though, believe it or not.
I think that Joseph would probably only have used a computer to read the Bible.
