On Screening Screens

The conversation around smart phones and social media and screens continues, with schools being a primary flashpoint.  Two people behind this necessary focus have been Andy Crouch (of The Tech-Wise Family) and Jonathan Haidt (of The Anxious Generation).  The two were recently brought together for a conversation by the Veritas Forum.  I’ve watched a good chunk of it and have found it enlightening and enjoyable.  It’s interesting to see where each speaker starts and how they revisit key presuppositions for their position.  And it’s always good to see someone practice what it means to “think Christianly,” something Crouch does amazingly well.  Haidt’s line about the unexamined life is hilarious and well-received, too.
