'To this day, if you say you would be willing to forbid, restrict, or reduce the use of technological devices in order to protect the community - or to protect the good health of nature on which the community depends - you will be called a Luddite, and it will not be a compliment. To say that the community is more important than machines is certainly Christian and certainly democratic, but it is also Luddism and therefore not to be tolerated.'
Wendell Berry, Sex, Economy, Freedom, and Community, p.131.
