Communication

There is an enormous communication industry in the world that is stamping out words like buttons. Words are transmit by television, radio, telegraph, satellite, cable, newspaper, magazine. But the words are not personal. Implicit in this enormous communication industry is an enormous lie: if we improve communications we will improve life. It has not happened and it will not happen. Often when we find out what a person "has to say," we like him or her less, not more. Better communication often worsens international relations. We know about each other as nations and religions than we ever have before in history, and we seem to like each other less. Counselors know that when spouses learn to communication more clearly, it leads to divorce as often as it does to reconciliation.

Stay clear of pious talk that is only talk. Words are not mere words, you know. If they're not backed by a godly life, they accumulate as poison in the soul.

2 Timothy 2:16-17
