Why are people failing to communicate in this era?

There is a serious communication breakdown in the family home, at work, at Church gatherings, at social gatherings, etc.

In today’s modern world adults, teenagers are techno savvy!

In today’s Educational System, Children learn to be techno savvy from school and are very articulate in texting on the cell phone or twittering or even chatting on face book and other social websites!

Technology has leaped from inkwell and dipstick pens with the obligatory blotting paper to laptop computers to tablets!

Everyone that is connected to the Cyber world enters a virtual reality and insulates themselves from the real world making one to one conversations difficult.

The days of meeting friends face to face to discuss matters of mutual interest appear to be doomed to extinction.

Worldwide, a whole new cyber culture is developing that is impacting on communication channels in families and in social, religious, political, and religious realms.

People are so concerned about being connected to their “Cyber World  Persona” where they can be plugged in and connect to Cyber Traffic and update their status and keep in touch with Cyber News and Cyber Events in their Cyber World.

The Financial World, The Business World , The Religious World , the Educational World, the Social WorldNet are connected to the Binary World of Zeroes and Ones known as the Cyber World !  

Even criminals are connected in the Cyber World and commit Cyber Crime like Computer Hacking and Cyber bullying!

Gone are the days of face to face conversation where a person could connect to the real world and rely on the five senses of sight, touch, smell, hear and taste to interact with the environment and with people.

The Techno Savvy Generation relies on sight and hearing.

If they are using a computer or a laptop or a tablet, they look at the computer screen and listen to the sounds they want to hear on the loudspeakers as they surf Cyberspace from page to page from country to country a virtual Cyber Tourist!

If they are using a cell phone or a Smartphone, they got the screen and d they may use earphones or speakerphone or whatever and engage in one to one call or a conference call or even a video call!

What about televisions and all the satellite channels or pay per view channels?

What about computer games or games played on Nintendo or X-Box 360 or Play station 3?

What about cinema shows and lives games?

There is just so much going
