Living in a mass-Media culture
One of the media outlets that I find moderately frustrating is the United Methodist News service that seems to put out a steady flow of articles and editorials from a moderately to greatly left-leaning (politically and theologically) perspective. I find myself wondering "where is the diversity?"
BUT I ran across this UMNS commentary that, in addition to the ussual litany from a quasi-social gospel perspective (not that these things are unimportant), asks some really important and engaging questions about what it means for us as Christians concerned with truth and beauty to live in a mass-media culture. The catalyst for the discussion is of course, "The DaVinci Code." And some of the observations are quite engaging.
