“We are grateful that the Archdiocese of Madrid has kindly offered to host our congress – and we are very aware that more Catholics speak Spanish than any other language – but that the Spanish-speaking of the world are under a type of ‘spiritual siege’ from fundamentalist Christian sects,” he [Archbishop John Foley] continued.

“Just a few days ago, Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, predicted that, within a few years, there will be no need for telephone or television service independent of the Internet,” the archbishop said. “In pondering the future of Catholic television, therefore, we must consider what will be the future of television itself – and how can we anticipate and not merely react to what will be the reality in communications 10 years from now.”

Of course, Bill would say that since his company is deep into internet technology. However, I do not see computers and the internet taking over TV.
