It occurs to me that a virtual
world is a world without virtue. Virtue must be cultivated in the soul in the
context of relationships; of heart to heart, soul to soul, mind to mind.
Character is only developed in community – a flesh and blood community of touch
and feel and smell and taste and look and body language.
But of course we no longer
talk of virtue because we don’t want it – it is too costly, too inconvenient;
let us kill character, let us kill virtue – let us profane the sanctuary…surely
God is not looking.
