The reason I am not on it because it is nonsense.

It's only purpose is social.

You don't have to experience something to know that it is wrong or foolish.

True. And political. And religious. But who needs to get their message out there anyway? It's not important.

I liked it a lot, simply because of the birthday remimders that popped up a week in advance by email. Then, family and friends started ragging me because I never responded to all the trivia BS they posted and I NEVER put up a 'status'.

I said to myself that I can fix this, and got the hell off. Do miss the reminders though. Oh well. No big deal.

If you don’t like it personally, so be it. But there is certainly nothing wrong with it. People having problems with it usually bring it on themselves. It’s a fun thing to do, and there is nothing wrong with that.

It's only purpose is social.

Facebook is social. What's wrong with that? So is FreeRepublic. I like the social aspects of facebook. It has brought me back in contact with old friends, seldom seen relatives, old schoolmates and lots of new friends from all across the country and around the world. My kids are living in other states. Their posts allow me to be a part of their social lives. I even got the privilege of "friending" Jim Robinson. :-)

But it's far more than a social site. I've become involved in a number of political causes that were started on facebook. Promoting and supporting Sarah Palin is one such activity. The amount of political activity is staggering, if you connect with the right people.

I'm in a number of prayer groups just as I am on here.

Facebook is a tool that works as well as you able to work it. I wouldn't put down what I don't understand. Educate yourself first.

Post 23 you posted this:

" I never said Facebook was 'wrong' I said it had no useful function, it is purely social. "

Then in post 216 you Post this:

"No, once again you try to set up a straw man and then accuse me of 'morphing'. What I said that most of what it does is for social chatting. I never said that it is not used in other areas, but that that was not it's primary use. "

Then in post 218 you Post this:

"Never said that it was FB ONLY use, but that was it's primary use. "

So now you are just outright lying with undeniable proof you are, staring you in the face on this very thread. Face it dude you are a liar and have no concept on how to construct a logically sound premise.
