Facebook: The Double Edged Sword

Facebook has been a mixed blessing for me. I have been able to bypass my normal shyness simply by not having to engage in the face to face social graces. On the flip side, I perhaps create unrealistic expectations on the side of the other people that I am some kind of social creature which actually I am not. Also, people that "thought" they knew me may find that belief "shattered" by the ferocity of my opinions. My views on Christianity actually in truth are no different that any of other aggressive assimilating religious movement. Now, that is directed at "the human element" ... not God, Jesus, or whatever deity faith is in mention. When I refer to Republicans, conservatives, GOP, Tea Party in most part I am talking of the politicians themselves not individuals outside of that arena. The exception to these being individuals who "insult" my intelligence spewing propaganda to me not based on fact or truth, but populist right wing dogma. If someone does this ... expect the "gloves" to come off.
