projector screen to display text hymns?

If the Church says no, that’s the end of it. If the Church allows it, please find a better reason to argue against it than “it is distracting” because it really does help some people.

Rationalization works both ways. Maybe some just aren’t comfortable and use the first convenient rationalization. But that’s not to say we shouldn’t be listening to them.

If anyone should be in favor of high tech in the church, I should be. One of my degrees is in physics and I had been writing computer programs on breadboards before the internet come into being in 1969. I’ve had to convince people, even who were to come into high tech later, that there weren’t monkeys inside those large mainframes running programs, that it isn’t all magic. (I’m serious.) So I understand the resistence encountered when any novelty is introduced into the church. And then there is resistence if you try to go backwards and “undo” those changes. The bishops have a handful to deal with and my sympathies go with them. I’m glad we’re on the same side in letting them decide what’s appropriate and what’s not.
