---Compare the hospitality of Abraham, waiting for guests to come at his door of his tent, running to them when they come. Caring for them.

---Compare this with digimodernists cultures: running away from guests.

---Guests not interested to come because they must bring money or gifts.

---Modern cultures are: instead of the joy of visiting, the burden of visiting: clean the house for visitors extra clean, burden of giving gifts to each other. Costly.

---There are cultures in Africa where gifts are not expected and not exchanged. Families visits each other almost every day or second day.

They sleep over on weekends. Houses are full of people sleeping anywhere where there is a space.

---This was Abraham's style.

---Digimodernism and smartphone preoccupation has stolen this from us.
