wow i have so much to say to u people. first of all, i think its very sad and unfortunate that the only people that think this is a great idea don’t have facebook. i guess i’m just going to have to procalim defeat after others and myself have tried so hard to get people to see the light, but you have all refused. after 120 when you go up to shamayim and have to watch a video of your life, trust me, every single person will wish beyond belief that they didn’t spend so many hours on facebook and that they spent time with their precious family members, friends, did chesed, even picked up the phone to make someone happy. so my bracha to everyone is that they see the emes very very soon.
minyan gal- ‘Your method of presenting your idea makes it seem that it is “your way or no way”.’
That is exactly the case and I’m happy you were able to see that. I’m so glad someone will finally be deleting it bec of me.
coffeeadict- ‘I wonder how many posters here that are proclaiming facebook as treif have ever been on it!’
I and yid4life have been on it as well as others I’m sure. but i appreciate your point.
mamashtakeh- ‘You could say the exact same thing about the internet itself. Instead of calling for people to delete their Facebook accounts, why not call for everyone to stop using the internet completely? Where are you going to draw the line?’
Once again, someone going to the extreme. I didn’t bash the internet as a whole, the internet is obviosuly here to stay. But there are limits. Why does it have to be all or nothing? It’s really not that difficult to draw the line with bad websites, but people here seem to have a problem with it. Is porn also ok bec its on the internet? Why would one draw the line with that also?
