Pope Promotes Christian Netiquette

Posted by samzenpus on from the divine-friend-request dept.

angry tapir writes "Pope Benedict XVI Monday gave his blessing to social networking, urging Catholic Internet users to adopt a respectful Christian netiquette when spreading the Gospel online. The pope said new technologies were creating unprecedented opportunities for establishing relationships and building fellowship but warned against creating false online profiles out of vanity or diluting the Christian message to achieve popularity."

    What he says is that catholics is not the same as christians - it's one of many sub-groups. It's like saying that Volvo is a car, but a car doesn't have to be a Volvo!
