Abstract

The internet is a tool that accelerates the spread of knowledge and information which can help in development of human and society. Awareness of information as well as culture meaning and symbolism are important for those who’re receiving and sending it. Very important is to understand that man is a unique and freedom is given to him by God at act of creation and our choices, conscious or subconscious, make them good or bad. The freedom of man is aided by God’s grace that allows us for proper choices. But how the Church can help a person in his coexistence with the new cyber reality? The Web gives the Church ability to reach every man in the world. it allows to discover knowledge about God and man. It gives the opportunity for dialogue and answers for questions, helping in search for deeper thought about the spiritual development of man. e internet itself also affects and influences on a person, it is expressed even by the culture and language.That’s why deeper contemplation seems to be necessary in modern times.
