As I drive or walk along the streets I can help but noticed the ubiquitous cameras mounted on lamp posts, traffic lights and wherever there's a space for one to be installed. Should I feel safer that there are so many eyes watching my every move or should I shudder to think that nothing I do is private. Given the revelations in the news media about government agencies in the US and how they spy on their citizens every conversation and every move, I wonder why do we need to whisper anything that we don't want others to know when we are speaking to someone. After all it is a matter of time before Uncle Sam gets to know what was whispered. But one thought crossed my mischievous mind and that is what happens in the Catholic church confessional? What is someone put a listening bug in the box and gets to hear all the goings on which must make a good script for "TruTV" .
