Many women are scared of computers. No, I am not talking about the ones that go to University and sit in those programming and business classes, nor the female geeks who find it easy to rattle off C++ and such with their eyes closed. I mean women who have sons and husbands using the computers. It is as if there was a sign saying, "You who were formerly eachers, nurse, dress designers, secretaries, office workers, or other professions, you must give up your computer, except for e-mail, to be a full time homemaker, because for you it is now a time waster. You must also not be able to go on the Internet because it is now so complicated for you." The Internet is not evil, but some sites are evil, pornographic, and harmful, especially to children, although I know adults who are terrified of these sites, not because of temptation, but it makes them sick. The purveyors of evil would love to drive off all the decent people. They do it in many ways, by sending messages telling one to go to a site, by numerous pop up windows, by taking advantage of a person making a mistake in typing the URL. However, there are numerous good sites where you can get home making information, recipes, patterns, health hints. There are Christian sites, sites about the Bible, and several Churches have their own web sites.
Now for you men out there. Please let your wife use the computer. You can make a list together of what sites you would allow your children to see. I have my own personal motives for writing this. Every time you say the Internet is evil, you let the ones who would show inappropriate so called adult sites wrestle more of the Internet from you.
I read that at the Swissair Memorial Service, the Christian ministers were not allowed to speak the name of Christ. All the others could mention Buddha, Allah, and what not. This is wrong. It is an insult to God and to the Christian community. This is political correctness
