http://youtu.be/JUs7iG1mNjIThe Internet has been the most important invention in my lifetime by a mile. I work on the Internet, play on it, and did my graduate work on it.
I discovered the Internet when George Washington U had a bank of computers with Mosaic on it. I spent an hour exploring the Louvre and thought it was the coolest thing ever. Over the next 2 years, I would come out and leave the church because of information I found on the net.
The movie Pleasantville really sums up the experience many Mormons had with the Internet. Suddenly, our world became a lot larger and our naivete exposed. I recommended that film to my mom and she replied, "We were told in RS not to watch it."
Things that make you go "Hmmmmm."
