Do you ever get involved in political or religious discussions on Facebook? - MortalGuardian - 04-28-2014 05:06 PM

Does it bother me if others reveal their views on politics or religion on Facebook? Well, to be truthful, if I happen to agree with those views, it doesn't. I wonder why.

I haven't always been reluctant to share my own personal views on politics and religion on Facebook. I have occasionally posted things that made my point of view rather obvious. But for the most part, I avoid getting involved in political or religious discussions on Facebook. I kind of feel as if it is inappropriate. Why? Well, I suppose I prefer peace to battle. I am very opinionated and stubborn- especially about politics and religion. Because I am aware of this, I know that it could be perilous for me to get up on a soapbox and preach on FB. Not everyone will like and agree with my views, and I understand this. I'm strongly introverted, and I do not handle confrontation well at all. Could this be why I prefer not to get into heated debate on FB with friends and family?

Perhaps you or someone you know likes to stir the pot a little on Facebook. I don't advocate censorship. I support the freedom of speech. But it sometimes bothers me if people I know on FB start pontificating about their personal beliefs about gay marriage, abortion, politics, etc.

Do you try to avoid discussing politics and religion on FB? Why?

No, it is really wired to do so.
I don't like it.
Hope you also . . .
