Pope Says Internet Users Risk 'Solitude'


Pope Benedict XVI has warned that the Internet does not make people more humane but instead risks increasing a 'sense of solitude and disorientation' among 'numbed' young people.

He also said that the technology was creating an 'educational emergency - a challenge that we can and must respond to with creative intelligence.' Benedict last month said the growing use of new technologies should set off 'an alarm bell' as it was blurring the boundary between truth and illusion.

Heaven forbid we ever hope to find solitude. Because being alone is such a terrible thing, worthy of Hell. I find it hard to take anything seriously from a man that looks as devilish as he does. Something is not right with him, and it's more than all that Catholic molestation hubbub.
