I wish I had yall on Facebook
August 2, 2016 at 8:50 pm
I know we all don't believe all the same things and e fight amongst ourselves but we band together over the big things. I need some of this support on these damn Facebook pages I follow. I don't know why I follow them because I know they infuriate me sometimes but I hate to let a debate go to close minded Christians. Because I'm in Texas a lot of people are religious so pages you'd think wouldn't mention god, such as the one infuriating me now called Texas Hill Country, randomly bring it up and I get in way over my head. I haven't even been a member of AF for 2 months yet but yall are the ones I keep running to when I can't handle all the religious freaks around me.
Ya know when someone tells you to calm down and it just fuels the fire? No? Hmm must be just me lol well being told to get over it does the same thing. I was told to get over it when saying in god we trust is a horrible motto for us. Not all Americans believe in him. I want to smack human decency into them but I can't and I can't just let it be like a normal person so you guys get to hear (... read?) Me rant. Can't yall all just get on Facebook, join the page, and back me up? Lol ;p

I refuse to get into religious arguments on Facebook. I try not to get into political ones with people I don't actually know well.
It never ends up well, and internet anonymity gets taken advantage of.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I'm in FB, with maybe 3 people on here, plus Rebecca Vitsmun, of Oklahoma tornado/Wolf Blitzer interview fame, plus maybe a few others, but then also 300+ gaming partners, most of whom are Xian, and like to post memes to that effect. It is what it is. My family is on there, too. That's important.

I'm not on facebook and I never was the least bit interested in having religious argments. Least of all on that glorified spyware called social media. The only religious arguments I had in my whole life were on here. And only when someone is sufficiently obnoxious to invoke my disgust. That's only a handfull of theists on here. No more than three or four.

I'm on Facebook but I don't do contentious topics there. Too many idiots.

And I was mostly joking about asking for back up on Facebook lol I just wanted to rant. I get into these all the time. I can't keep my mouth shut online. But I do like complaining how stupid my current debate partner is but usually its to my fiancé who is in school right now. And who I try to stay away from religion talk with since he is religious. Y'all areally my outlet. Just pat me on the head and say "yes yes mandy you are right they are wrong and stupid." *turns to others*mandy is going off again just ignore her.
