I posted on a thread on facebook a couple of hours ago regarding Chik Fil A and the fact that The Jim Henson Company, or whatever it is will not be donating to them anymore but will instead be donating to GLAAD.
I posted as a Christian and identified myself as such, stating that I didn't care a feather or a fig what they did with their money, if I was hungry, thirsty, whatever, I will go where I want.
Oh, and I also mentioned that if they wanted tolerance, they should show some. Uhm, maybe I overstepped my bounds there.
Anyway, they blocked me!!![/i][/u] Huh?
Is the fibro just getting to me or did I do something wrong?

Are you sure you are blocked and it's not just a Facebook gltich?
The last post I saw that you made was 4 hours ago my time...said you were going to bed...talked about growling.

Its just on this one thread that I was replying to....they deleted all of my posts and blocked me from replying anymore on the thread. I'm over it now, but it really threw me for a loop.

Hey Lois, was it on your wall, the main wall or within a group that you belong to?

I don't understand Facebook very much. It is too easy for me to lose posts/comments. Probably my lack of computer skills. Keith is the one to take care of this stuff.
I would not be upset very much about this. But that is just me. I care more about the hairballs in my clinic than I do about Facebook's feelings.

I am suprised...somebody must have hit the button complaining...
one of them thangs we are going to have to get used to. It is OK to bash Christians and Christanity...but woe be unto us if we say anything...

Muppets bash Chick-fil-A over owner's faith 'Our CEO is personally a strong supporter of gay marriage' 07-24-12  Jim Henson Co., owner of the widely promoted Muppets characters, says it won’t be working with Chick-fil-A any more based on the statement of Christian faith from the restaurant chief that he does not endorse homosexual marriage. “The Jim Henson Company has celebrated and embraced diversity and inclusiveness for over 50 years and we have notified Chick-Fil-A (sic) that we do not wish to partner with them on any future endeavors,” said a Facebook statement from the company. “Lisa Henson, our CEO, is personally a strong supporter of gay marriage and has directed us to donate the payment we received from Chick-Fil-A (sic) to GLAAD [ a homosexual promotion organization].” www.wnd.com/2012/07/muppets-bash-chick-fil-a-over-owners-faith/ |

I know that some (such as Mike Huckabee) are calling for a reverse boycott on Chic-Fil-et on August 1. Calling for everyone that is against Sodomites to purchase dinner at their locations. We have one nearby and I have never been. Thinking on it.  |

A lifelong friend of mine...well, a friend of mine that I have had since Junior High came to my "rescue". She is Wiccan, but I'm working on her and she is the one who posted the link in the first place. Anyway, she called them out and then they removed her posts...all of them. For a group that screams "tolerance", they sure don't have any, do they?

When I got blocked, the first thought in my mind was, "welcome to persecution. A slight taste of it, but persecution, nonetheless".

You must not have seen my question on the first page Mamab, did this happen on your wall, the main wall or within a group that you belong to on Facebook?

Oh, I'm sorry Keith! It was a shared link from my friend on my wall. Since then, they have blocked me and her from posting.
