I write, speak, invest, network, and question to stimulate fruitful conversation. Let's talk about human flourishing! It begins with freedom. Holy leisure is the key to human being, freedom and generativity. Please join me in the adventure of realizing Christ!
High-Tech Placenta
How does a TV fall short as a placenta?
The true, maternal placenta is a two-way structure, with real persons on each side. On the other side of a child’s TV, there is no one who yearns toward him in love, desires his growth into a higher reality, and prays for his welfare. In fact, on the other side of the TV there is someone who yearns only for him to be influenced to stay put for commercials, desires him to remain fully absorbed in its embrace and to forget any higher reality. “The set can’t respond to his needs, can’t help buffer him from sensory overload, can’t protect him from toxic material…” (SAW, pg. 24)
