Although existence to some extent has gotten better with developments in technology over the past few years in a way we have taken steps backward also, we've got the internet obtainable to us 24/7 which provides for us entry to a broad range of amusement that we did not have years ago. Television sets have gotten even bigger and we can gain entry to R rated movies with the click of a button, video games have taken off in a massive way and kids are now running around in their virtual universe brandishing guns, knives, bombs and going on killing sprees in very gory detail.
Daily the newspapers splash head lines of murders, robbery and rapes but is there any question when we are continuously bombarded and tempted with movies, games and some of the things the World Wide Web has to provide.
Sure we can select to not watch the films, to not play the video games or to delve into the seedier parts of the World Wide Web, but the temptation is there and not everyone can resist, we all know that temptation is just that, if we believe we should not do something then we cannot resist doing it or taking a peek, if nothing else but out of curiosity. But does it damage us, can what we see or do really influence us in our actions in life, some of course claim that yes it does, being constantly bombarded with violence and sex can transform how we think and feel so the likelihood of it progressively beginning to impact our thoughts, feelings and actions is extremely likely.
If violence is portrayed as being fun in video games then aren't kids obtaining the wrong concept? When younger people, specifically girls, see size 0 women parading on the catwalk are they going to eat that healthy balanced meal that you put in front of them or are they going to nibble on a lettuce leaf to shed yet more weight?
The internet permits us to parade our lives for all of the world to see by way of blogs and chat rooms, would we leave our front door wide open and encourage strangers to walk in off the street? Only a fool would do that yet we allow not only our children unrestricted access to the net but we also do it ourselves. We write blogs, fill in profiles, post photos of ourselves and where we live, we even put our phone number down on the profile sometimes, while there are many good uses of the web for example bringing families and loved ones closer together, it can also be used by the spider cunningly faking, just sitting and waiting to draw some unsuspecting person deeper into their internet of lies and deceit and then when all seems well, will strike with occasionally deadly force. Advancements in technologies aren't bad, its how these developments are used that is the problem and the type of individual we can become from utilizing them continuously, we now have to avoid temptation if we are to live a much better existence in the future.
