“ Television always presents religious people to be out of touch with the modern world” Do you agree? Give reasons for your opinion.
In this piece of coursework I will be focusing on whether televisions always present religious people as out of touch with the modern world.
To be ‘in touch’ means to be up to date with current affairs and to be aware of what is happening all round the world.
We watched a range of programs some containing in touch characters and others containing out of touch characters some containing both. In the television programs we watched I would suggest that Fr Chad out of “The monks of ampleforth” because he was very soft and lenient with the students, also Fr James from the same program is in touch because he listens to the up to date trance music smokes and also allows raunchy posters to a certain extent.
