Ok. I’ll admit it. I’m a little bit of a Facebook junkie. Yes, I teach Pilates, volunteer at the preschool, facilitate youth groups, and raise two kids. And yes, I am 35 years old. But still, I find time to peruse Facebook on a daily basis. Much to my husband’s dismay, I will sit on the couch glued to my laptop “wasting time” on Facebook.

For those of you unfamiliar with Facebook (which from here on out I will fondly refer to as FB), it is a networking website where you can connect with people you know, people you once knew, or people you would like to know (I guess).  You must send a “friend request” or accept one, to view people’s profiles.

Don’t feel bad if you have no idea what I’m talking about. I too was a FB virgin until the teens in my youth group encouraged me to join so that we could communicate about our meetings conveniently. They were sure that I would be the oldest person on FB and discouraged me from being “one of those losers who puts tons of pictures of their kids up”.  And 469 “friends” later, I am one of those losers.

Anyway, what does any of this have to do with religion?

When you fill out your profile, you can be as vague or as detailed as you like about your stats. Hometown, Relationship status, political views, etc. So a few days ago I noticed what one of my “friends” had put for religious views.  Jedi in training. Funny. So I decided to look at what others wrote. The majority seem to leave their religious views blank. Others just give a straight answer. Here is a sample of the more creative ones:

Thanks for reading. Gotta go check FB…
