Chatman: Protecting young minds from the evils of the Internet?

chatmanNow here is a PC accessory/toy that every kid (and possibly every parent) needs to have. This is the Chatman, who is “destined to become every kids’ new best mate”.

Yes, it would be better if your child got him or herself some real friends, but if the little ones are on the Internet, then perhaps this could keep your son and daughter from friending someone they really shouldn’t.

Irreverent Reverence, Day 34: Woe to Christians

Jesus really tells the Pharisees off in today’s reading, referring to them as hypocrites. The sad part is, Jesus could easily say this to Christians of today, and be right on the money. Go on and read Exodus 17 and 18 as well as Matthew 23, then the entry.
