I've been a fan of God for a while now...surprise!

http://daylandoes.com/facebook-god/

As of last month, there are 1.19 billion people on this planet who are active on Facebook. I’m one of them. I bet you probably are too huh?
It’s one of those tools that the world loves or hates … or loves to hate but can’t get the hell off it.

I fit into the latter of those three demographics of Facebook users. I think it has far more negative elements than positive (as discussed in more detail here).

It’s the biggest aggregator of human information the world has ever seen. It captures our entire lives and gives this information to a publicly listed US company, and 1billion+ people are cool with that! But, gosh darn it, I get to see photos of my friends cats and it plugs into my Spotify account so I’m willing to let its malicious corporate agenda slide this time – after all, my Spotify playlists are so kick ass now!

There are millions of stories of how negative of a place Facebook can be. Stories of bullying that lead to people taking their own lives, divorces due to risqué images people were tagged in and has no doubt led to thousands of punches in the face due to status updates people took offence too.

It’s very easy to find a negative story about Facebook.

But this post is about a good Facebook story. In fact I think it’s one of those good human stories. The kind that makes you forget how shitty things can be sometimes.

This story begins with the day I found God.

I would put religion in the negative column, not the positive column.

That's pretty much my take on religion too, SciFi. But I still find FB God delightful.
