19 What does the church say about cyberbullying? The catholic church is no stranger to bullying But due to the recent addition of technology bullying has got worse http://www.bullyonline.org/related/church.htm

20 There are many verses in the bible that talk about bullying. some of those are: Leviticus 19:18; Matthew 5:11 and Revelation 22:12 http://www.openbible.info/topics/bullying http://www.openbible.info/topics/bullying

21 Leviticus 19:18 "You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord." http://www.openbible.info/topics/bullyinghttp://www.openbible.info/topics/bullying

22 Matthew 5:11 "Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account." http://www.openbible.info/topics/bullying http://www.openbible.info/topics/bullying

23 Revelation 22:12 "Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay everyone for what he has done." http://www.openbible.info/topics/bullying http://www.openbible.info/topics/bullying

24 Although there truly isn't anything in the bible that talks about cyberbullying these verses prove relevant.

25 If these verses are applied to cyberbullying they serve the same purpose which is helping to better ones self

26 Church's views on cyberbullying Recalling the comandments it states one should not bear false witness against his neighbour

36 Differences Between Cyberbullying and Conventional Bullying Cyberbullying can be much less noticeable than "schoolyard" bullying, but at the same time it leaves evidence

37 Differences -The virtual disconnect makes it easier for motives and results to be different -Someone could think they are acting normal while their counterpart feels victimized http://www.teachtoday.eu/en/Teacher- advice/Cyberbullying/How-is-cyberbullying- different-to-other-forms-of-bullying.aspx

38 Differences -cyberbullying seems less important because it is “just talking” and seemingly unrelated to physical harm -it actually has more dangerous effects such as suicide http://www.teachtoday.eu/en/Teacher- advice/Cyberbullying/How-is-cyberbullying- different-to-other-forms-of-bullying.aspx

39 Differences -cyberbullying is often retaliatory and the revenge is taken too far since it is unobserved -cyberbullying makes revenge more immediate http://www.teachtoday.eu/en/Teacher- advice/Cyberbullying/How-is-cyberbullying- different-to-other-forms-of-bullying.aspx

40 Differences -the people getting bullied and committing the bullying can be anyone -children can be more embarrassed to talk about it http://www.teachtoday.eu/en/Teacher-advice/Cyberbullying/How-is- cyberbullying-different-to-other-forms-of-bullying.aspx

41 Differences -cyberbullying can take place 24/7 -it invades personal space (hard to escape) -more likely for incidents to be unintentional http://www.teachtoday.eu/en/Teacher-advice/Cyberbullying/How-is- cyberbullying-different-to-other-forms-of-bullying.aspx

42 Differences -often happens accidentally through trash talk (in emails, and online, trash talk is perceived as more serious than in person) http://www.teachtoday.eu/en/Teacher-advice/Cyberbullying/How-is- cyberbullying-different-to-other-forms-of-bullying.aspx

43 Differences -Many people do not filter what they say online, and it can be taken too seriously -They might not mean to be negative, but their word choice can skew their message http://www.stopcyberbullying.org/educators/howdoyouhandleacyberb ully.html

44 Cyber bully people and get knocked out!
