Facebook Is Gradually Becoming Unsafe For Christians

We all loved it when facebook hit the internet as it made it possible for us to connect with old friends and keep up with a social life. But these days, facebook is beginning to appear different from what it use to be.

I’m not talking about the improved features but how it is becoming a place for decent minds to stay away from, especially Christians.

This was brought to my awareness by a brother I met few days ago.

He raised some points that makes it seem like the website is now designed to make Christians sin or backslide.

With such around, he says Christians need to visit the site with caution or boycott it if they don’t want to backslide.

1. Violence

A day doesn’t go by without coming across a video showing 2 females fighting. The problem is that the more you watch such videos, the more you lose your humanity. If care is not taken, when you see people fighting, you might pull out your phone to film 2 them just cos you want to also make a trendy video instead of separating the fight like the peace maker you ought to be.

2. Graphic images

The problem about this is that it desensitizes and reduces you to a barbarian who doesn’t get irked by the sight of blood. The images are usually those of accidents, murders, fights etc. Pictures are even better. What about videos of beheading and jungle justice?

3. Unclad pictures

Churches, religious organizations and their members are all on Facebook where they do their business and connect with each other. But with the level of Unclad pictures circulating on Facebook, such religious people will either boycott the site or get lured into sin. I think there should be a restriction that ensures you don’t see certain things depending on your preference. Do you think Unclad pictures are no issue? Check the next one.

4. Pornography

This is now rampant on Facebook. Mind you, it is not only adults we have on Facebook these days; teenagers and even kids are frequently accessing the site. A 12 year old kid who really shouldn’t know much about sex is now exposed to videos showing how a J0yst!ck penetrates a vagina in different styles. The next thing is for such a boy or girl to try it out at that young age. We are now being bombarded with live porn videos and the sad part is that nobody is saying anything about it.

After he finished giving his points, I realized all he said are actually all I see on facebook these days.
