I stumbled on an article I wrote in 2015 regarding the Apple Watch and I still agreed with everything I wrote back at the time. In fact, I liked it so much, I’m reprinting it here.
All of human history pivots upon the coming of Christ. In fact, we measure it in two parts: that which occurred before Christ and that which follows, which is the current Age of Enlightenment based on his teachings.
Even if you’re an atheist, you have reason to appreciate and celebrate his life. It was upon his followers’ desire to carry out Christ’s mission that we have so many hospitals, universities, and humanitarian organizations and even the basis of our American legal system. Jesus truly changed the world. But for those who embrace Jesus wholeheartedly, there is so much more. You could condense everything Jesus taught about to a single sentence. HIS KINGDOM IS COMING. All of the pain and suffering in this present age will pass away. Every day of life becomes like Christmas as we discover more and more of this entity known as “God”. I use to envy the wide-eyed wonderment of children as they continuously discover new things. Christmas is best experienced through the reflection on your children’s faces. But as you grow older, fewer and fewer things are new or bring you amazement. God is the one thing in the universe that is so large and complex that we jaded adults can once again experience the child-like wonder of beholding something new and truly awesome. So rejoice! For the kingdom of God is at hand. I’ve been using the latest M1-powered iPad Pro for a few months now, and its new features have impressed me. I upgraded from a 10.5” iPad Pro, so this model was improved in many ways besides performance.
It’s true that history seems to repeat itself. And the longer you observe the course of events, the more you start to notice. Take for example how tech pundits almost overwhelmingly ridiculed Samsung’s Galaxy Note “phablet” when it first came out. All the same arguments used to explain how no one would want a large phone are now being made against using VR headsets.
