Are social networking sites destroying cultures?

i think no. social networking sites dont destroying our culture.they kept us in touch to other .

I don;t think so that the social networking sites are destroying culture, its the easy way of communication  and staying in touch with people, it is a  tool where we can find a person whom we are genuinely searching for months and years. It;s the tool which builds relationship, but only when used properly.

If it were a bad concept how would I have seen your views and tried to answer you.

Perception matters over here and try to grasp good from bad and see the changes within - Roses too have thorns/Lotus blooms in muddy water.

I think that no one can change your value, beliefs, ethics, culture...or anything without your agreement. It is you who is ready to change...... As per my view Social networking sites provide a place where any one with any background can participate and discuss on any topic and get many answer for a single question.

Social networking sites or any other techonology can 'destroy' our culture as it has been dramatically posed. Preserving culture is an individual's responsibilty. No one can force you into letting go of your values or cultural traditions. This is like implying if you are handed a gun then automatically the person has to started mass murder. Advancement and especially techonological progress comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages...Make yourself sensible and matured enough to use these tools responsibly.

Social networking sites are definitely not destroying our cultures. They give us an opportunity to stay connected and get in touch with our past friends, colleagues. It is only upto the user how they are using it. Every thing has pros and cons. So it is better to educate people and implement policies and practices to avoid negative usage of social networking sites.

had the cultures witnessed or been  revolted by some rebellions by now we would not have travelled so far on this platform.

This is totally absurd, every technology has its good and bad uses. Its individuals responsibility to tackle with it, how can it be sin. Through social networks many good deeds human can do. Even last month they condemned fatwa against the practice of using Quranic verses as the mobile ring tones terming it as "improper" as it compromises the sacredness of the religious scriptures. Then Yahoo messenger/Google talk and then Cell phone and then IE, Firefox, Chrome, Youtube will join the list of 'sinners' tools.
