Pope Francis reached a milestone of sorts yesterday:
Go here to Pontifex to read some of the Pope’s tweets. PopeWatch views this as harmless enough. The bite sized tweets aren’t going to convert many, but it is better for the Pope to have a presence on social media than not to have a presence. Saint Paul went to the Areopagus to proclaim Christ to the Athenians, and I have little doubt that if he were spreading the good news today, Saint Paul would be blogging, tweeting, using Facebook and every other form of social media that he could lay his hands on to make Christ known to all.
Herbert Marshall McLuhan, devout Catholic, once famously observed that the medium is the message.  PopeWatch thinks that is debatable, but what is not debatable is that the Church must use all forms of medium to convey her message of eternal salvation
