This is my story,this is my song , scrolling on my cell phone all the day long, nothing accomplished,nothing got done,i had billions of brain cells,soon ill have none
Listen to the Simon and Garfunkel song from the 60s: The Sound of Silence. Think about cellphones as you listen. “And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made”” “people talking without speaking, people hearing without listening”. Almost prophetic.
There are plenty of prophetic songs that ring true to today's times . American Pie by Don McLean , Listen To The Music by the Doobie Brothers , are just a couple that come to mind .
@@SamSam-mv6gf When He said to the soldiers that came to arrest Him , Whom do you seek ? They said Jesus . When He said I Am , they drew back and fell to the ground . A prophet or regular person doesn't have that authority . When Moses asked God , who should I tell the people sent me , He said , tell them I Am sent you . When He dealt with the religious leaders of His day , He said , Truly I say to you , before Abraham was , I Am . They took up stones to stone Him , because they knew what He was claiming . He is the same yesterday , today , and forever , The Word of God that became flesh . In the beginning was the Word , the Word was with God , and the Word was God . Amen
Good for you Christian teenager! The Lord always reserves a remnant of people that refuse to bow the knee to Baal! He IS worthy, serve the LORD Jesus Christ!!!😇

I’m 63yo and even I was sucked into this dopamine addiction. I’ve now deleted all social media apart from TH-cam. I find I’m now more relaxed and have time to do the important things in life. Carry on spreading the word.
This is very important information. I am age 83 and addicted to email, TH-cam, and News. I am going to work on reducing this dopamine hit and replace it with anything else that is productive. Thank you.
I recently learned that we can willingly give our "TIME" as an offering to the Creator. Or we can give our time to the Accuser (who lies, deceives, and destroys).
Exactly it's a prison! What makes me sad is when I see parents at the playground not engaging with their children because they are obsessed with their phones. It is also rude when I am speaking with someone, and they are on their phone. To break this addiction, I starting to spend more time in nature, to reading books and doing crossword puzzles to regain my sanity.
Did you find that response on your cell. Phone I got Internet and fancy phone during the affordable connectivity program after 10 months I've figured out need to turn off data to save I like internet but love music so divise stays home and is not refilled when data is gone
I despise these cellphones. It's really damaging our society. Social interaction is falling off dramatically. People don't actually hold conversations face to face. Everyone has their head buried in their phones. Many people take their phones to bed with them. It's sick and it's killing us!
Anyone that would track free people ARE the wrong hands. Nothing good comes from monitoring free people. We monitor convicts 24/7 .. now people that have done nothing wrong are watched 24/7 and our response? "When does the next iPhone come out?". We have to turn this around before the cell door is locked behind us.
The Rabbi is a wonderful communicator! I am an "old person" and for the bulk of my life these smartphones didn't exist. I don't need them now. Listening to this talk I think I wouldn't want them now.
It's rare that I'll give credit on YT vids but you have nailed it. Just as hyper-palatable foods have destroyed the physical wellbeing of society, so too, has the "social media" ruined the mental, psychological, spiritual aspects of Human Beings. The toothpaste is out of the tube, the genie is out of the bottle, Pandoras' opened the box, the ship's sailed, you snoozed so you ......, horse has bolted and the chicken's flown the coop, cat's out of the bag, and the fart is out of the bum......
I remember way back around 2007/2008, people had flip cell phones and texting started. I was 28/29 years old and had gone back to school at a small-town community college, and after a lunch break a group of us around the same age (so we were never raised on cell phones) were walking back to our class, and I saw my friend walking, face down into her phone, and texting her husband. I knew then that this was messed-up, it wasn’t like excusing yourself to make a call/receive a text, it was texting just barely in its infancy, and people already prioritizing it to the people they were physically with. No more “in the present”. Within a year I was working at a big hospital and all nurses (everyone, really) had phones in their scrub pockets, and would be texting people their entire shift... and it was night shift. About 4 years ago I dumped a smartphone and went back to a flip phone - I have lost every single one of my “friends” because of it. The reality is that most people don’t even know how to have relationships in person anymore - if it’s not through a smartphone, they aren’t interested. Personally, I believe this is dehumanizing and demonic.
I was around the same age when cell phones came in. All I know is the internet and cell phones allowed evil to come directly into our homes. It made us easier targets. I’m thankful I was of the last generation to have not grown up with cell phones or the internet.
Crazy how texting was sold as some kind of new technology. Sending ASCII characters over the internet is 60+ years old. It's slow and cumbersome, the least time and effort efficient method of communicating and the whole world became addicted to it. Insanity
It is the image of the beast. I agree it is demonic because God created us to be in relationship with each other and to love our neighbors. It goes against God's original design!

Smartphones have destroyed an entire generation's ability to socialize normally. Even many Millennials - who grew up without them - are now hopelessly addicted to them.

It ends when all parents get together in the neighborhood and agree to put an end to it. All devices are given only during a certain small window, like Saturdays and Sundays for 1 hour each, total. No tik tok. The kids would have to learn how to hang out and socialize.
So true! You just told me why I’m addicted to my iPad. Thank you! This is the second video I’ve seen of this recently. I think G-d is trying to tell me something. 🙏✝️🇦🇺 It is wonderful you are teaching children this.
He doesn't even tie it into faith until 10:00, and it's only a passing mention of Ha'shem. It's a good lecture but it's 99.99% secular.

Hello Rabbi. I am a christian and I see cellphones in churches.... 🙄 Cellphones are idols, that is it. Idols are everywhere : Sports, celebrities, television.... and now the very convenient cellphone, the little idol which engrafts itself so easily in people's hands and no need of surgery, since our stupid little idolatrous hearts do it spontaneously. And we interrupt our prayers to answer the phone, or look at a notification. When we pray, we are in the presence of the Lord Almighty and we answer the phone ! Both ungodly and uncivilized.
I am astonished that anyone would even consider interrupting their prayer to deal with the phone. They are in the presence of Almighty God. Regarding people reading the Holy Bible from a phone app, perhaps we should be thankful that they are reading the Bible at all.....if it weren't fot the appeal of the app, the Bible might have remained untouched (if they have one at all) and unread. If travelling, the app could be a compact and convenient means of reading and studying God's Word.
I lived in silicon valley for seven years. I went to the launch of the first apple I phone at the apple store on main street, Palo Alto, two blocks from where I lived in 2007. My friend in tech told me on that day, Michael, never ever buy a smart phone, they are the most dangerous thing ever. I don't own a mobile phone. Get an answer machine on your home phone. Our children are our greatest achievement. Take care of them. God is watching 🕊️🙏💚☘️
The good rabbi forget about curiosity. The gentleman of the 18th century with their cabinets of curiosities that were supposed to intrigue and engage their guests would turn green with envy at TH-cam and it's unending stream of irresistible fascinations.
Dopamine hijacking doesn't work on me. I have sensory overloads and hate bright or white screens and lights and beeping sounds. I guess I find other things rewarding, like learning and flying. I have a phone; it's stays off a lot.
*Larry Burkett's book on "Giving and Tithing" drew me closer to God and helped my spirituality. 2020 was a year I literally lived it. I cashed in my life savings and gave it all away. My total giving amounted to 40,000 dollars. Everyone thought I was delusional. Today, 1 receive 85,000 dollars every two months. I have a property in Calabasas, CA, and travel a lot. God has promoted me more than once and opened doors for me to live beyond my dreams. God kept to his promises to and for me*
It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US and abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
Imagine warning people about this 20 years ago, and every year since, but never have been taken seriously. Imagine people thinking you are just a crazy curmudgeon for seeing clearly..and trying to care for them. Imagine all of this, and nobody ever coming back to say to you these words: "You were right about everything." It is hell.
This is an updated version of 'the medium is the message'. The nature of the medium, which has a dramatic psychological-social impact, transcends in importance any particular content. Thanks, Rabbi.
It is so sad to see a small child trying to get a parents attention, who is doing this. I'm so thankful to The Most High for keeping me away from these phones. Don't have one and never will.
Oh... This man just perfectly explained why I have some 20+ windws with videos opened in my browser, all waiting to be looked at (some for several weeks, aleady, and most of them with an added playlist). Subscribed for him being the man to explain the world to me.
The TV was called the most brilliant mind-control device ever invented. It's now been replaced by the smart phone. I never go online with my phone; I talk and rarely send a text.
Its really hard to carry around a tv set 24/7,, therefore the absolute need to build a handheld programing babysitter tracking device ,,, fuck that ,,, im phone free
What saddens me most is when I see a mother with her little child in the buggy, scrolling her iPhone. You can see how lost the child looks, not knowing: is my mother here or isn't she?
I'm not sure how it is in the Jewish tradition, but a lot of Christians have stressed the importance of mental prayer, for example “He who neglects mental prayer needs not a devil to carry him to hell, but he brings himself there with his own hands.” (St. Teresa of Avila) The way the phone scatters your attention makes it impossible to focus your mind, making mental prayer and meditation impossible. It is especially bad now that the apps have become addictive as explained in this video
I've had people get mad at me because I don't have a smartphone. I have a flip. For the record, more and more I find that young people admire that I have 'only' a flip phone. They say, 'I wish I could do that'. I tell them, " you can", and they look befuddled.
I want to ditch my smart phone, but I only hesitate because I need it to look up things on the internet if I am in hospital and the fear of breaking down in my car, and having no way to look up needed services to help.
Absolutely brilliant and 100% spot on,and its absolutely so tearfully sad than,its took?literally 2seconds to grab,hold and brainwash these addicted people "victims",so many millions upon millions glued to that screen, its so sad, shocking
I been working in the wireless industry for 25 years. I can tell you I don't have all these fancy apps on my phone, I not on my phone 24X7.... I work remotely and at the end of the day I leave my phone in my office. I got off all this social media long time ago. I guess I am old school.
I never turn on notifications because it's annoying. Being forced to scroll to find something on YT is annoying. I got off social media due to not having a phone and can't seem to get back on social media even though I "need" it for busieness. .(Not so sure its worth it anymore.) But I am still addicted to TH-cam.
It's getting harder and harder to find anything of value on You tube . And truth is almost impossible to find . Controlled opposition is everywhere . Censorship reigns supreme . We're getting real close to the point of Intervention . If you know what I mean . Madness can't continue , evil has it's limit and boundaries . When push comes to shove , there will be a shaking . A BIG shaking . Wake up , Little Susie !
So Rabbi glad you are alerting people to this. Solutions: just get a dumbphone again OR (as I have done) turn off the smartphone and let people know you will check every day if they have messaged you about sth IMPORTANT.. This works really well! :)
No I'm not doing that, because I have self control thanks to God. I can use my phone when I need to and put it away. God teaches us to count our blessings
I went "backwards" to a flip phone with a smaller screen last year. I use it as a phone and for text only. My PC is for internet stuff. I purposely keep them separate. I also refuse to carry my phone. I leave it in my office, car, shop and I check it a few times per day. I refuse to be a zombie like 95% of the population is already. I am guilty of being a free thinker so I do not follow trends in order to "fit in".
Still use my 15 year old Samsung flip phone. It's merely a tool I use when I need to use it, to speak to other people when it's necessary... only when it's necessary.
This is why I use my phone with the accessibility colour filter turned on to greyscale. In fact, I have a 15 pro max but only use it for important photos/video/3d rendering, no sim card in it, and instead I use a smashed-screen 10 as my daily device.
@@Plus1Like turns out we can program the power button on iPhones to turn it on and off with three taps. Helps for when I need colour to look at patient images when they need a diagnosis, just found out today.
A good question to ask yourself is what makes me happy? If the answer is accomplishing the goals you decided on then it will definitely work for you but there would definitely need to be a rigorous system of defining the goals and prioritising the list.
I don't have a smartphone I have a dumb phone! I hated the updates and interruptions on the smartphone. I also suffer from wifi EMFs so limit my exposure! I certainly don't want to be controlled by these devices! What is infuriating is that most of the population are brainwashed and live their lives via their phones. The art of conversation is dead and sadly many children are ignored by their parents whilst they browse the internet on the phone! A very sad world we live in!
The smart phones in the long run make us addicted and dumber. Do you know your 3 most important phone numbers by memory. When an EMP hits us we will be sheeple and cognitively impotent !!!
I need the extra brightness on my phone for work as I work in the sun. You can disable badges, which I find helpful. Only allow notifications and sounds that you rely on.
This video is ruining my dopamine high - - oh wait no the more I watch the more it is enhancing it. Wait now I’m confused, but I can’t stop watching. Never mind.
Valid point. The big tech companies have world class psychychologists, neurologists etc. working on this to make them as addictive as possible. People using tech like this (like here) should know they are deliberately being manipulated to the maximum extent that science can give. It will get better too.
When you stand or go past a bus stop, everybody you look at is on their mobile. Mine is a hand me down from yrs ago. I don’t have Facebook and my phone is for my kids to get in touch with me. My kids are addicted to their iPads. And that’s my fault. Take me back to the 70s and 80s.
You can change technology, but human reacting remains static. The unique to humans 'ability to reason" comes with the default stimuli Emotional reacting and instant gratification. The bright lighting and red dots are merely electronic cattle prods. Thank you Rabbi Glick for your informative talk.
I think it's just a tool that we need to use propperly(for learning or work) but not exclude from life. There are plenty of tools around us that we use inpropperly.
(Prefixing confession is irrelevant) thank you Rabbi for emphasizing this worrying phenomena in our society today. This spoke out of the depths of my soul.

Idols are everywhere : Sports, celebrities, television.... and now the very convenient cellphone, the little idol which engrafts itself so easily in people's hands and no need of surgery, since our stupid little idolatrous hearts do it spontaneously. And we interrupt our prayers to answer the phone, or look at a notification. When we pray, we are in the presence of the Lord Almighty and we answer the phone ! Both ungodly and uncivilized.
I can top that. I've seen PRIESTS fiddling with their phone during the service!
Some people use it to look at scriptures through their Bible app.
I am astonished that anyone would even consider interrupting their prayer to deal with the phone. They are in the presence of Almighty God.
Regarding people reading the Holy Bible from a phone app, perhaps we should be thankful that they are reading the Bible at all.....if it weren't fot the appeal of the app, the Bible might have remained untouched (if they have one at all) and unread. If travelling, the app could be a compact and convenient means of reading and studying God's Word.
Anything can become an idol if you allow it to be.
You cannot serve _both_ HaShem (God) and Mammon!
Jesus loves you !
Rabbi is bringing truth to the people. ❤❤
I lived in silicon valley for seven years. I went to the launch of the first apple I phone at the apple store on main street, Palo Alto, two blocks from where I lived in 2007. My friend in tech told me on that day, Michael, never ever buy a smart phone, they are the most dangerous thing ever. I don't own a mobile phone. Get an answer machine on your home phone. Our children are our greatest achievement. Take care of them. God is watching 🕊️🙏💚☘️
What it reminds me of is those black obelisks from Space Odessey 2001 and the astronaut that goes its full of stars.
Rabbi reiterates what mindfulness instructors have been saying for decades.
You mean what religion has been saying since Moses?
@@CrabtreeGuitar not really. jews appropriated all of their myths from Babylon and Zoroastrians.
The good rabbi forget about curiosity. The gentleman of the 18th century with their cabinets of curiosities that were supposed to intrigue and engage their guests would turn green with envy at TH-cam and it's unending stream of irresistible fascinations.
Sounds of Silence: "And the people bowed and prayed to the Neon God they made."
Dopamine hijacking doesn't work on me. I have sensory overloads and hate bright or white screens and lights and beeping sounds. I guess I find other things rewarding, like learning and flying. I have a phone; it's stays off a lot.
*Larry Burkett's book on "Giving and Tithing" drew me closer to God and helped my spirituality. 2020 was a year I literally lived it. I cashed in my life savings and gave it all away. My total giving amounted to 40,000 dollars. Everyone thought I was delusional. Today, 1 receive 85,000 dollars every two months. I have a property in Calabasas, CA, and travel a lot. God has promoted me more than once and opened doors for me to live beyond my dreams. God kept to his promises to and for me*
There's wonder working power in following Kingdom principles on giving and tithing. Hallelujah!
But then, how do you get all that in that period of time? What is it you do please, mind sharing?
It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US and abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
Big thanks to Ms. Susan Jane Christy❤️✨💯May God bless Susan Christy services,she have changed thousands of lives globally
So nice to see Susan Jane Christy talked about here. Her good works are speaking already, and like wild fire, she's spreading.
Everyone should hear this!!!
Imagine warning people about this 20 years ago, and every year since, but never have been taken seriously. Imagine people thinking you are just a crazy curmudgeon for seeing clearly..and trying to care for them. Imagine all of this, and nobody ever coming back to say to you these words: "You were right about everything." It is hell.
He's not wrong.
Hate also releases a dopamine hit
No cellphone. EU here only one in bloodwork waiting room at hospital everyone into theirs.
This is an updated version of 'the medium is the message'. The nature of the medium, which has a dramatic psychological-social impact, transcends in importance any particular content. Thanks, Rabbi.
As soon as I started to hear this message I felt sick bc I suddenly realised I’m an addict to my phone, scrolling through you tube.
It is so sad to see a small child trying to get a parents attention, who is doing this. I'm so thankful to The Most High for keeping me away from these phones. Don't have one and never will.
Oh... This man just perfectly explained why I have some 20+ windws with videos opened in my browser, all waiting to be looked at (some for several weeks, aleady, and most of them with an added playlist). Subscribed for him being the man to explain the world to me.
The TV was called the most brilliant mind-control device ever invented. It's now been replaced by the smart phone. I never go online with my phone; I talk and rarely send a text.
Its really hard to carry around a tv set 24/7,, therefore the absolute need to build a handheld programing babysitter tracking device ,,, fuck that ,,, im phone free
What saddens me most is when I see a mother with her little child in the buggy, scrolling her iPhone. You can see how lost the child looks, not knowing: is my mother here or isn't she?
Thank you for sharing this.
I'm not sure how it is in the Jewish tradition, but a lot of Christians have stressed the importance of mental prayer, for example “He who neglects mental prayer needs not a devil to carry him to hell, but he brings himself there with his own hands.” (St. Teresa of Avila)
The way the phone scatters your attention makes it impossible to focus your mind, making mental prayer and meditation impossible. It is especially bad now that the apps have become addictive as explained in this video
I only use it in meditation to play binaural beats music. The phone or the tablet .
Great talk. This is an important health and social issue.
Excellent and informative , also explains how we have ended up in the precarious state we find ourselves in !
We're still in charge to a degree. I've switched off all TH-cam notifications except my phone's software updates.
Don't use TikTok, Facebook, etc.
In days of day you could watch one person pull out a cigarette and others would follow. Now, as an experiment, take out your phone in front of people.
My dream as a child was to get an iphone
My dream as an adult is to get a flip phone.
Love this.
I've never had a dream about a phone.
I've had people get mad at me because I don't have a smartphone. I have a flip. For the record, more and more I find that young people admire that I have 'only' a flip phone. They say, 'I wish I could do that'. I tell them, " you can", and they look befuddled.
More people should hear and understand this.
I wouldn't have found this video without a 'digital device' . He's absolutely correct!
Thank you Rabbi. We are dopamine addicts! I am guilty of seeking this rapid dopamine spiking, and these cellphones provide that.
Thank you for this video. I wasn't aware of that.
I want to ditch my smart phone, but I only hesitate because I need it to look up things on the internet if I am in hospital and the fear of breaking down in my car, and having no way to look up needed services to help.
We used to have "phone books" that had any number you would ever need inside them. You could "let your fingers do the walking (tm)" ...
Absolutely brilliant and 100% spot on,and its absolutely so tearfully sad than,its took?literally 2seconds to grab,hold and brainwash these addicted people "victims",so many millions upon millions glued to that screen, its so sad, shocking
I am Vincent, you are wonderful communicator! For the younge and the old God bless
I been working in the wireless industry for 25 years. I can tell you I don't have all these fancy apps on my phone, I not on my phone 24X7.... I work remotely and at the end of the day I leave my phone in my office. I got off all this social media long time ago. I guess I am old school.
I never turn on notifications because it's annoying. Being forced to scroll to find something on YT is annoying. I got off social media due to not having a phone and can't seem to get back on social media even though I "need" it for busieness. .(Not so sure its worth it anymore.) But I am still addicted to TH-cam.
Im addicted to YT big time.. That’s why I’m here 🙃🫨
Only do you tube and check the local weather forecast.
Information only, some comments.
It's getting harder and harder to find anything of value on You tube . And truth is almost impossible to find . Controlled opposition is everywhere . Censorship reigns supreme . We're getting real close to the point of Intervention . If you know what I mean . Madness can't continue , evil has it's limit and boundaries . When push comes to shove , there will be a shaking . A BIG shaking . Wake up , Little Susie !
@@huntncover 💯
So Rabbi glad you are alerting people to this. Solutions: just get a dumbphone again OR (as I have done) turn off the smartphone and let people know you will check every day if they have messaged you about sth IMPORTANT.. This works really well! :)
No I'm not doing that, because I have self control thanks to God. I can use my phone when I need to and put it away. God teaches us to count our blessings
I went "backwards" to a flip phone with a smaller screen last year. I use it as a phone and for text only. My PC is for internet stuff. I purposely keep them separate. I also refuse to carry my phone. I leave it in my office, car, shop and I check it a few times per day. I refuse to be a zombie like 95% of the population is already. I am guilty of being a free thinker so I do not follow trends in order to "fit in".
Still use my 15 year old Samsung flip phone.
It's merely a tool I use when I need to use it, to speak to other people when it's necessary...
only when it's necessary.
Thx for saying this out loud.
Technology has broken relationships. Replaced communication with avoidance of real contact.
For me, 'red dots' mean more stress, no dopamine
Great presentation rabbi I’m watching on TH-cam
This is why I use my phone with the accessibility colour filter turned on to greyscale. In fact, I have a 15 pro max but only use it for important photos/video/3d rendering, no sim card in it, and instead I use a smashed-screen 10 as my daily device.
@@Plus1Like turns out we can program the power button on iPhones to turn it on and off with three taps. Helps for when I need colour to look at patient images when they need a diagnosis, just found out today.
You have a daily device?
The irony of having a clickbait title on a video with this topic..
Thanks for telling the truth
Well said!!!
Just as there is no multitasking neither can we serve two masters .. either we serve God, or we serve an idol (false God) ..
Good job rabbi!
A good question to ask yourself is what makes me happy? If the answer is accomplishing the goals you decided on then it will definitely work for you but there would definitely need to be a rigorous system of defining the goals and prioritising the list.
I don't have a smartphone I have a dumb phone! I hated the updates and interruptions on the smartphone. I also suffer from wifi EMFs so limit my exposure! I certainly don't want to be controlled by these devices!
What is infuriating is that most of the population are brainwashed and live their lives via their phones. The art of conversation is dead and sadly many children are ignored by their parents whilst they browse the internet on the phone! A very sad world we live in!
Im the only one with a dumb phone,nice to meet another 😂 everyone's has a smart phone but I've always called mine a dumb phone
Thank you. This is a great presentation highlighting the downsides of smartphones. A lot of info here that most do not want to hear.
My mother always said that while you are sleeping there’s someone sitting around the table thinking of what they can do to make more money.
The smart phones in the long run make us addicted and dumber. Do you know your 3 most important phone numbers by memory. When an EMP hits us we will be sheeple and cognitively impotent !!!
The really big deal is the silicon it's made from, has memory and is alive....hmmm is it evil or good
I need the extra brightness on my phone for work as I work in the sun. You can disable badges, which I find helpful. Only allow notifications and sounds that you rely on.
Direction toward the desired addiction, it's called "control"
Excellent stuff, thank you Rabbi, I'm subscribed. Bless your heart.
Ironically, my " smart phone" found this.
This video is ruining my dopamine high - - oh wait no the more I watch the more it is enhancing it. Wait now I’m confused, but I can’t stop watching. Never mind.
I agree as I type this into my phone 😂
Big shabbat shalom going out to all.
Good job, Rabbi. Well done.
I am addicted to TH-cam and Sugar.
You are so right.
Most excellent.
Valid point. The big tech companies have world class psychychologists, neurologists etc. working on this to make them as addictive as possible. People using tech like this (like here) should know they are deliberately being manipulated to the maximum extent that science can give. It will get better too.
When you stand or go past a bus stop, everybody you look at is on their mobile. Mine is a hand me down from yrs ago. I don’t have Facebook and my phone is for my kids to get in touch with me. My kids are addicted to their iPads. And that’s my fault. Take me back to the 70s and 80s.
You can change technology, but human reacting remains static. The unique to humans 'ability to reason" comes with the default stimuli Emotional reacting and instant gratification. The bright lighting and red dots are merely electronic cattle prods. Thank you Rabbi Glick for your informative talk.
"And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they'd made." You put your hands together and bow your head when you use your "smart"phone.
Landlines and paper maps are impossible to find, many restaurants have QR code menus...hard to get around, make calls without a smartphone these days.
I think it's just a tool that we need to use propperly(for learning or work) but not exclude from life. There are plenty of tools around us that we use inpropperly.
Red dot 🔴.
I think he’s talking about blackberry.
The only good smart phone
(Prefixing confession is irrelevant) thank you Rabbi for emphasizing this worrying phenomena in our society today. This spoke out of the depths of my soul.
Smart phones are now connected to our brainwaves that whatever we are thinking about say siding an ad comes up on topic
