According to the latest studies over 85% of Americans have access to the internet. They can do this at home, at work, at school, at the library and a few other places making this number a reality. Like any other tool the internet can be used for good and it can be used for evil.

Long before Al Gore invented the internet (and Queen Elizabeth II invented the microwave) you could be online with a source of information greater than the worldwide web. People could and still can have direct access to Almighty God. So I ask you, are you online with God?
