Indianapolis Star features church sites online...
John Shaughnessy did a couple of excellent articles this morning for the Indianapolis Star:"Web opens a new window on religion"
"Yet nearly everyone agrees about the dramatic impact that computers and the Internet are having on religious faith."
"Using a computer for online religious activity could become the dominant form of religion and religious activity in (this) century," says Brenda Brasher, author of 'Give Me That Online Religion' "
"Computers now a part of church life"
"Alton Clark uses computers to open a new world to members of Second Baptist Church in Indianapolis. The black church has 10 computers that are used to teach skills to children and train adults in keyboarding, the basics of the Internet and use of e-mail."
" 'We wanted to help people in our congregation get the skills they need to compete in the work force,' Clark says. "We know how fast the information highway is, and we don't want them to get caught in the slow lane. About 40 people have been through the class. It's helped some of them get a job.' "
