And it's time has just begun. The Trojan Horse has work to do inside the church and synagogue as well. A strategically placed computer in the library will do more to bring kids back among the books and videotapes than all the flyers you can mimeograph. Computers attract kids like rabbits to my wife's garden. Last year's Pentiums over there.
Some churches already have more equipment than they can use.
The presence and welcome extended by the computer and religious software can help teachers, students and parents rediscover the treasure buried on the shelves. It's like a good book. Both invite the user to burrow into a slightly altered state where time passes without notice and attention is engrossingly focused. They become 'co-explorers' with their teacher. Like any resource, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
