Yserbius123 -“Can someone explain to me, as if I were a 80 year old Luddite, why Facebook causes divorce?”
Noone claimed this and you know it. Are you 80?
“But I just cannot figure out what the deal is with Facebook. I am near-completely ignorant of “Facebook culture” and “Facebook social circles”.
I have a Facebook account, which I check maybe once day. Most of my friends are pretty boring, so I’m not exactly one to talk. But I just cannot understand what people see in Facebook that makes them so unhappy with their lives. You see pictures of your friends going to Israel, new babies, Channukah pictures, you’re chatting with old classmates. I’m not trying to criticize the idea, I’m just trying to understand it.”
The fact is FB makes it easy to find people and socialize with them and they with you. Even innocent people who weren’t looking to do bad things can sometimes end up doing them. A Frum guy just being on it without trying to get away from their marriage and all of a sudden s/o from the opposite gender befriends them -Not all have the strength to pass such a temtation.
