Just like a beautiful grand piano won't make you a better piano player, a computer won't make you a better writer. Only careful study by a motivated student under the care of a willing and motivated teacher can make a large difference. The next time your school is looking at deploying more computers or phasing out the old ones, take another look. Think about investing in the teachers instead. People certainly can become addicted to computers and their use.
People can become addicted to anything they want.
As long as it fulfills the purpose of drawing their attention away from what should be the most important thing in any person's life. Their personal relationship with God or their core essence. People can even get addicted to the motions associated with worshipping God, even though they don't have the foggiest idea where to find God. The Internet is enabling people to find more and more ways to lock their minds into the computer. I think that everyone should try to take a few moments each day and sit with nothing on their minds, trying to get to a clear space where there is no background activity in their brains.
