A Few Words on New Media from the Pope

This week,Pope Benedict XVI received in audience the participants of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications.

He went on to say, "In the case of believers,the necessary appreciation of the new media technologies must be supported always by a constant vision of faith, knowing that, beyond the means that are used, the efficacy of the proclamation of the Gospel depends in the first place on the action of the Holy Spirit, who guides the Church and the way of humanity."
