Log on, and start talking about the Bible. No having to wait on a response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have like no christian friends and it bums me out. I don't have any Christian friends neither and I'm also bummed out by it almost everyday. However I also have misgivings about Facebook. I've often thought of a board here at Worthy where there would be no arguing allowed. I'm not sure how to set it up or how to enforce the no arguing rule. It would have to be no arguing based on our honor for each other as Christians. It would be place to go and say Good Morning or Good Night, or if you a post a problem you're having with people in the world no one should disagree with you unless you clearly wronged the other person. What I'm thinking about is kinda how 12 Step Meetings work where you can vent without fear of someone attacking you bc they disagree. This is probably what you want to do on Facebook but I really don't see how you will control all the nasty people there either. But I like your idea and I think there's a real need for something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure I would monitor each person that joins the group to try to avoid nastiness. And just kick them out if they are nasty. Idk I'm kinda just going with it to see what happens. I hope it works out like I planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But haven't been to one in years. Only check FB once a week. Finding it tougher to connect w/people there as time goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont want to know how many immoral women want to chat with my husband (he has an account). Of course he ignores them but you know, you cant get away from them either.

Yep, When I joined in order to see some Israel pictures taken by Zola Levitt's ministry I was bombarded with those kinds of offers. I immediately tried to cancel my "account" It was nearly impossible. Took a few years before I stopped getting the "offers", and facebook enticements to to use my account.
