The Importance of Computer Programming

In 2 Thessalonians, Paul says some people have given up their jobs and are sponging on the rest of the church. If you're capable of working, then you should be working - he tells them to dig a ditch or find somebody who needs a wall being built. Even if it's simply helping computers to do better what they're currently doing, that seems to me that's part of life. It's like whether it's driving a bus or as I said, digging a ditch or building a house,. These are the creative human projects. CS Lewis has a go at this at one point where he imagines a sort of scale of jobs going all the way down.
