lifestyle television and the new sermon

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2005.01.08

I've decided that lifestyle televion shows have taken the place in modern society once occupied by the weekly sermon in Church. And I've written an essay about it.

God the Internet is a beautiful thing. With an Internet feed and enough research to make one's theories sound plausible, you can say/do just about anything you want.

I'm constantly amazed at how difficult it is to break free of the straitjacket of the immediately urgent.
