. In the recent past, I found myself falling into the addiction of spending too much time on social media, and it was affecting my moods and thought process. It was taking me further from thoughtful critical thinking into an area of reinforcing opinions based on sound bites, superficial answers, and emotional responses. Much of my early life consisted of just reading books and papers, listening to the radio, processing information with what I felt was an attempt at objectivity. As a Christian, the truths of the Bible remain the foundation of my worldview and are strongly embedded in my thinking. However, as technology pushed us to higher levels of information processing, I found technology deprived me of peace of mind. Long ago, I stopped Facebook. I deleted YouTube, Instagram and X, and now feel free. I would open Instagram and see a Bible verse someone posted, and right before or below, a nasty message or a scantily clad woman. The dichotomy was obvious. Things were on the screen that I had no interest or desire to read. I know my choices are not everyone’s, but my spiritual walk with the Lord and my peace of mind are more important to me. Soli Deo Gloria
