Controversial Pope Calls Internet 'Gift From God
Pope Francis today declared the Internet “a gift from God,” in a statement about unity, equality and dialogue, that was released by the Vatican to mark the Catholic Church’s World Communications Day.
The pope cited increased levels of inequality around the world.
The pontif said that the media could play a role by “creating a sense of the unity of the human family which can in turn inspire solidarity and serious efforts to ensure a more dignified life for all.”
The 77-year-old Argentine controversial figure has also said homosexuals should not be marginalized and that Catholics should reach out to atheists, shockers for fundamentalists.
The pope told his followers that the internet can be a place to increase understanding and peace through dialogue.
He said that “engaging in dialogue does not mean renouncing our own ideas and tradition.”
The Internet and social media offered a chance for such a dialogue, he said.
“The digital world can be an environment rich in humanity; a network not of wires but of people,” he said.

Oh, like the continuing dialogue between Isaraelis and Palestinians have been helped by the Internet? Sure. Money talks louder than people even on the Web. With recent blows to net neutrality, that is getting worse.
