the world in a grain of sand

computer chips are the basis of our entire society - social, medical, financial. the entirity of the world's financial systems - including stock markets and exchange rates right on down to everyone's electronically deposited paychecks - all are computerized. our medical records are stored on & accessed by computer and computers contribute to diagnoses. our social lives are conducted via computer - we keep in touch by email & facebook, we plan parties & send invites online. we keep journals online and vent about friends, family, & coworkers. we read everything from news to novels on computer. we play games & watch movies. we make the purchases that are the gasoline in the consumerism engine that drives capitalism.

our entire world is built on computers which are built on sand.

Matthew 7:24-27 ~~ Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell-and great was its fall!
