People lost jobs and were withdrawn from because of technology, how can something that was evil then not be now?
Brethren do utilize equipment as it is deemed to be appropriate and particular care is taken to ensure that access to corrupt and defiling material is limited. The position held on technology has not changed to the extent that the exhortation to members to live free from the pursuit of every modern convenience continues today. Historically, where safeguards were not in place and there was a determination by a member to pursue materialism, congregations may have felt this influence and the potential for unchecked corruption was not conducive to a Christian lifestyle.
