Recite Once a Day at Shutdown

Posted on January 20, 2004 by glasscastle

Not that the Dowbrigade would ever need such a thing, but one can’t
be too careful…

An Israeli rabbi has invented a prayer to help Jews overcome the guilt
of visiting pornographic websites.

The benediction by Shlomo Eliahu says: "Please God, help me cleanse
the computer of viruses and evil photographs which disturb and ruin my
work…, so that I shall be able to cleanse myself (of sin)."

Mr Eliahu said he had seen a marked increase in the number of men who had
come to him to confess their internet sins.

The callers said they were worried that the time they were spending surfing
for porn was ruining their family lives, the daily Yedioth Ahronoth reports.

The rabbi recommends that Jews recite the prayer when they log on, or even
programme it to flash up on their computer screens so they are spiritually
covered whether they enter a dodgy site intentionally or by mistake.

    The Roman Catholic Church, as always, really thinks the best of its members, but anyway, just in case, it created its own prayer a while ago:

    Almighty and eternal God,
    who created us in Thy image
    and bade us to seek after all that is good, true and beautiful,
    especially in the divine person
    of Thy only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ,
    grant we beseech Thee that,
    through the intercession of Saint Isidore, bishop and doctor,
    during our journeys through the internet
    we will direct our hands and eyes
    only to that which is pleasing to Thee
    and treat with charity and patience
    all those souls whom we encounter.
    Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
