Then came the political economy, the knowledge economy, and the information economy. Now, it seems, we have the attention economy. The notion, which goes back to the 1990s, is that nowadays people compete for attention as much as for money or knowledge. According to the pundits, attention has become a currency: it has scarcity value and endless attraction. As with money, only the naïve or incapable (or the truly wise) can resist its lure. In the digital age, to be a winner in the attention economy requires constant tweeting, blogging, and updating one’s status on Facebook; a hugely time-consuming business.

  • Suffer the Little Children
    Suffer the little children Introduction Suffer the children For this paper I take this quote from the ASV Bible in a different sense to its real meaning. Obviously the real interpretation of Matthew 19:14 is, ‘Let alone’ or ‘permit’. 1 However, this paper regards the real suffering of children in this corrupt society. This Bible verse is one of many that show Jesus’ concern for young children. In this he is manifesting the concern of God in general for children, hence the Lord’s condemnation in the OT of hurting children. 2 The iniquity of hurting children Since God cares for children and commands his people to be good to their children, it is anathema to hurt children; indeed this is ingrained upon the conscience of every rational person. Thus the practice of abusing children is both irrational and worthy of God’s condemnation to hell fire. Any government that presided over abusing children, or knowingly tolerated this abuse, is insane, ungodly and worthy of condemnation. The great sin of Israel One of the key reasons given in the Old Testament for Israel’s judgment and condemnation was that its idolatry from God to idols caused Israelites to sacrifice their children to Molech. Israel’s apostasy was so great that its rulers ritually killed their own children. Ritual killing of children was an evil practised by idolatrous nations and so God commanded Israel, from the beginning, never to do such a thing. Indeed, God judged the previous nations in Canaan for completing their iniquity and making their judgment certain by sacrificing their children in the fulness of their sin.
