Yes. Among other things. I had a thought today. One of the main reasons for the Protestant Reformation was the printing press. People began reading the Bible for themselves and drew their own conclusions instead of relying on the Church to interpret the Bible. This reminds me of the internet where more information is readily available to the masses and people can begin find information for themselves instead of relying on main stream news sources. I still have a fondness for the Catholic Church, but like all institutions run by humans, it’s not perfect and the printing press exposed these shortcomings.
