Yes. Things have certainly changed. But still we can use the new technology to
spread God consciousness. There's an old Indian story about the snake... The snake
doesn't bother to make it's own hole in the fields.. It just finds a hole made by
a mouse or rat and goes inside and eats the mouse and then uses the hole as his
own home... So they have made the internet... We should use it to reestablish God
consciousness and usher in a more sane civilization...

But it's not going to be very easy I fear... They are a very determined lot...

I saw a quite yesterday but now I can't find it. It ran something like this. "It
is such a great pity that those men who desire to exploit and cheat are so often
more enthusiastic and more determined in their endeavors than those spreading the
word of God." It has lost something in my "paraphrasing" it but I think you can
get the idea. The atheists are so determined to smash the thiests... And I think,
for the moment at least, they are winning...
