Not a Facebook Fan
I finally joined facebook only because I can't seem to get family members to email photos to me. They can plop them on facebook, but can't seem to email them.
Annoying because I made sure everyone got photos back when we had to actually snail mail them. Now it's digital and easy and they can't be bothered.
I don't share info on facebook. I'm more of a "listener". It amazes me the drivel people write. My niece made a comment concerning Wicca and her fraternal aunt and cousin (uber-Christians) jumped on her and were all ready to drive over and pray for her and save her from ruining her life. She was just discussing not claiming to follow. Little do they know I had encouraged her to learn about other religions.
That's one of the problems with some Christians. They feel they need to "fix" those who don't conform.
It is a shame that family members would distance themselves from a loved one because of a difference of opinion. Life is too short.
