I just read the sensational talk by Elder Kearon of the Seventy. He delivered it on Valentine's Day for the devotional here. He mentioned something that can hinder our sensitivity to the spirit, similar to what we discussed in class today. He said we may be hurting our relationship with Heavenly Father with a "Poor Digital Diet." I love that! He verbalized that issue well. I think one of the scariest aspects of social networks and media is the time it consumes, so the priorities it has to bump out of the way, and mostly, how excessive media consumption desensitizes us.
Just as Dr. Coyne kept saying, 'be careful.'.... But, what is 'being careful?' How do we set our personal rules and limits? When do we draw the hard line and stick to it? What do you do?
Thanks for sharing Tess:) There is such a fine line. I need to be strong like you and just delete my FB account. Ha!
