The Internet Always Wins. [View all]
Matthew 6:6 reads, "But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you." It's my favorite verse to throw in the faces of those who make a public spectacle of their piety.
There needs to be a similar verse in the Bible Of Online Etiquette. Something like, say, Internet 6:6, which would read, "But if you're going to be an insensitive jackass, if you're going to express racist or sexist sentiments, if you're going to threaten the life of the president or other public officials, if you're going to do anything stupid or mean or grossly inappropriate, do it by yourself in an empty room. Do not do it online, because lo, the Internet sees, and the Internet always wins. Always."
Amen.
