The cell phone and internet make it more difficult for people to save their souls, suggested Father Federico Lombardi. the Pope’s spokesman. on Vatican television.
The Telegraph reported Lombardi spoke of the dangers on the Vatican television program Octavia Dies:
“In the age of the cell phone and the internet it is probably more difficult than before to protect silence and to nourish the interior dimension of life. It is difficult but necessary.”
“There is an interior and spiritual dimension of life that must be guarded and nourished. If it is not, it can become barren to the point of drying up and, indeed, dying.”
“Today, this is a very grave threat, and it is the most irreparable misfortune.”
