msd,
What are you talking about "When you think about burning down a synagogue"...
--- Quote ---
I think our technology does get in the way of serious study. When thinking about burning down synagogues, for instance, I often thought of my dream of sitting in a jail cell having nothing to read but a Bible and perhaps a few other books.

A deleted thread, never mind it. I'm not going to do that . I wrote bad things and I'm glad it's deleted.

I saw that thread and I hope that you can resist any of those bad thoughts. All mankind is battling their own inclination for bad and the righteous are able to control their bad side and use it for good.
msd:
I won't do anything. I'm sorry about writing it.

As another Rabbi Miller, Rabbi Mordechai Miller of Gateshead, said in his CD on the timing of inventions: "Hashem has given us computers, not because we're more intelligent than our ancestors. We may know more than them, but we need computers like a man needs a crutch, because we're more stupid!".
eg the memory powers of the ancients were phenomenal. When, because of the katnuss hadoross memories became weaker, Hashem sent the printing press in the 15th century as a rachmonuss. When men's physiques could no longer withstand the rigours of agriculture and travel, he sent the steam engine in the 19th c etc.
"If I have seen farther than others, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants!" (Newton)
