Comments on: Facebook and Intimacy: What the Heck Are You Talking About? http://redhotread.com/blog/?p=314 Controversial and Thought-Provoking Articles for the Savvy Christian Wed, 27 Feb 2013 01:00:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Dena Netherton http://redhotread.com/blog/?p=314&cpage=1#comment-447 Dena Netherton Wed, 09 Sep 2009 17:40:28 +0000 http://redhotread.com/blog/?p=314#comment-447 Totally agree. I'm getting so fed up with those kinds of posts that I'm callng them on it. I write: "Say what?" or "Care to explain that?" or even, "What the blazes are you talking about?" I've thought about going on my own tirade, but the people who post the nonsense probably wouldn't read it. They're too busy trying to think of somethig really obtuse and impressive to put in their next post. Totally agree. I’m getting so fed up with those kinds of posts that I’m callng them on it.

Don't be philosophical on Facebook. That's just annoying. Then there are probably those who care sick of hearing about my illness on Facebook and Twitter - but at least I'm real. I agree.

You're right, a steady diet of enigma doesn't lead anywhere. (But I do enjoy the occasional "huh?!".) You go girl! You’re right, a steady diet of enigma doesn’t lead anywhere.

Jo, you and several others have told me I've hit a chord with them. Patsy, you are so right that people need to be allowed to be as intimate as they want. For me, I've been frustrated because these are people that used to talk to me and they live in another place. Our only connection is FB. But you're right, there needs to be grace.

Seldom is there only one way that's right no matter how married we are to it. With all the identity thefts, phising, and unanswered privacy issues people are reluctant to put it all out there. Besides intimacy is defined differently person to person and I think how we choose to relate with others remains an individual choice. Giving folks a grace-based forum for connection is a real gift...whatever our style...or so it would seem to me. Anyway kudos for stirring up thoughts...
