Portals To Darkness

 

Yes, again, Pearls Before Swine.  If our phones are "portals to darkness," then many of us have gone to the Dark Side with Darth Vader being our patron saint.  We access the internet through our phones, and just about everyone has the key to enter, including many - perhaps most of our children who carry that portal with them even when it should be denied them, especially in school classrooms.  

Obviously, our phones educate us and open all sorts of lines of communication.  But there are many people - and demons - with pitchforks on the "other side" of our screens trying to seduce us to do evil things.  

We must not be the "tools" of internet trolls and manipulators.  Our phones are wonderful tools for us to use wisely.  Let's do so.  Instead of pitchforks, let's wield olive branches.
