Religion and the mobile world -
the influence of mobile technology on religion has been obvious for some time. The use of mobile and the Internet has opened a new face to the religious life. If it moves at this rate in a case of a religious life of ten years will be redefined. The communication revolution and especially the mobile and Internet has given a new color to the lives of religious men. The Internet will give you an answer to most of your religious questions without asking the help of a priest or imam. Mobile applications will provide the religionist with some interesting tools, such as a call to prayer, the Bible or read Al-Quran online, find the right direction to Qibla (direction of Mecca) and many others.
Catholic Church gives blessing to iPhone app
How crazy is that title? You think it's a joke?
The Catholic Church has approved an iPhone app that helps guide worshipers through confession. The confession program was put on sale via iTunes for £ 1.19 ($ 1.99). Described as "the perfect aid for every penitent", it offers users tips and guidelines to help with the sacrament. Now senior church officials in both the UK and US given their seal of approval the application takes users through the sacrament. - where Catholics admit their wrongdoings. - and allows them to keep track of their sins, but it is not intended to replace traditional confession entirely
"the Church believes in embracing new technology and creative application will hopefully help people to make a good confession." It is considered the first time the church has approved a mobile phone application, but it is not entirely familiar with the digital world; the Vatican has its own YouTube channel and created a application that allows users to send virtual postcards featuring the pontiff.
You can buy this app on iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/confession-a-roman-catholic/id416019676?mt=8&ign-mpt=uo%3D4
which religion has the best cell phone
religious devotees worldwide benefit from expressing their faith with custom cell phones, which can play religious ringtones ?; do the scriptures; or provide advice, content filtering and other services specific to each religion. These phones are customized and sold directly to religious communities in various parts of the world.
The fact that there is no Christian cell phone may surprise you. In fact, Christians lead the world in accessories and cell phone software, including cell phone stickers and cases, ringtones and specific Bible-related content to phones. But to the best of my knowledge, no one sells a "cell phone Christian" pre-packaged designed to be marketed to Christians
No. 3:.. The cell phone Jewish
There few years, an ultra-Orthodox rabbi approached Abrasha Burstyn, CEO of Mirs Communications Ltd., an Israeli subsidiary of Motorola Inc. with a concept proposed cell phone. the result is a phone that fulfills what the rabbi saw as a need to block objectionable content in the eyes and ears of other ultra-Orthodox Jews in Israel. He was stripped of features and simply makes and receives call. It can not send or receive text messages or access the Internet. There are no camera. and more than 10,000 phone numbers for dating services and direct sex lines were blocked. But phone deals heavily discounted per-minute charges when calling another kosher phone. But it will cost $ 2.44 per minute for calls made huge on the Sabbath.
No. 2: The Muslim cell phone
If ever there was a religion that needed a special mobile phone, it is Islam. The reason is that Muslims pray facing Mecca five times a day. If you live or are near a mosque, you will be notified when to pray with the "call to prayer". Once inside, the whole building is oriented towards Mecca. But if you are a Muslim in a big foreign city, where is Mecca? When the prayers? And where can I find a mosque? A good Muslim cell phone solves all that. There are several Muslim cell phones available in different countries. The best I've found is made by a company based in Singapore called Ilkone Asia. Ilkone called the I-800, the phone not only plays its own call to prayer at the appropriate time, but points towards Mecca and plays recorded prayers over the loudspeaker. The phone also comes with the full text of the Koran in Arabic and English. The Ilkone I-800 is available in Indonesia.
No. 1: The Buddhist cell phone
The best religious cell phone in the world is made for Buddhists. This highly modified and rare Nokia N70 is currently available only in China. Like other religious cell phones, the Buddhist Buddhist phone ringtones, software and other external signs. What sets this phone apart from the pack is the beauty and detail of customization. The phone is reportedly gold-plated and contains a piece of jade called the button "Buddha video." When you press it, you can watch a Buddhist video.
Another piece of jade is built on the back in the middle of the enclosure and is just for decoration. The back has a raised image of the Buddha. He plays classical music and 12 Buddhist sutras. The battery, stylus - even the small door which gives access to the removable media card - are all decorated in the Chinese style Buddhist
. If you are religious, or even if you are not, enjoy your favorite mobile phone while you can. Because even though each of them is small, handheld and mobile, you can not take it with you.
And on that note I would say, keep the faith.
