The Root of All Evil? Us!

In a stunning decision Lewis Black slammed down that gavel to say that the blogger is the root of all evil over the "ultimate fighters" in Comedy Central's show called “The Root of All Evil

It was a hard fight until Patton Oswalt made me giggle like a school girl, in his introduction, asks if blogging "unfiltered brain leakage is somehow changing the world?" that blogging takes "...one of the most essential activities of communicating and degrades it to 'poo flinging'... If left unchecked, blogging will educe all human expression to abbreviated grunts, emoticons and pictograms"

After picking myself up off the floor from laughter. Sorry I forgot 'ROFL'. I questioned how evil we really are. Do we change people's mind by doing this? Are we just flinging poo at each other? Would I be more effective on a milk crate at a crowded event? I need a couple of days to think about this one.

Another important question to ask myself: Am I just feeding the machine and blogging about the subject of blogging?

I believe they got it all wrong. The root of all evil is all of us, bloggers or non-bloggers. We are wicked sinners, and that all are in need of a savior. We have transgressed God's Law and we all need to repent. Forgive my poo flinging to any of you.

Am I evil? This makes me think of a song I heard the other day, I haven't heard it in a long time and it won't get out of my head. Please join me. Warning, clicking below and listening may render you involuntarily singing to the Lord throughout the day. Which is a good thing! "What's going on inside of me? I despise my own behavior. This only serves to confirm my suspicions that I'm still a man in need of a Savior. I want to be in the light" DC Talk

I want to shine like the stars in Heaven. Oh, Lord be my light, and be my salvation, all I want is to be in the light.

Best Viewpoint: G.E said: "but I think we lost communication for a tremendously long while, and somehow, blogging instead of sitting in front of the tv brings communication back." Well said! Bravo!
