I woke up this morning and for some reason the first though that cam to mind, that I remember, was how dangerous personal opinions are to not only politics, but even more so to religion. Think about it, if your opinion ever breaks free from religious ideologies, due to the internet it could spread like a wildfire. It made me wonder with all the attempts that big biz has made to censor the internet, how many would sensor non-christian posts? How many are already being censored by the people who run sites already? I can't tell you how many times I have posted something on my own Facebook page in regards to religion, atheism, christianity, free-thought, etc. only to find it deleted a few hours later. All someone has to do it seems is flag/report it and if the mods don't agree with it or find it personally offensive, they will delete it. I have attempted to contact FB about this and one got a reply that my post was deleted because it was offensive to others.

Now I wonder, has anyone on here had the same issue on FB or other sites? Is free-thought really that scary to the Religious/Christian community?

Do you really believe the religious communities are the only ones censoring? C'mon you are very well aware everyone is jocking for their views; that's probably the reason you are complaining now is because you are wanting your views heard.

I can truly say I have no desire to rule the earth my hopes and dreams are amongst the stars....the earth is too over-rated-gabfest

No I don't but this is the religious forum and I was addressing an religious issue. I know of atheist websites that censor christian and sometimes even atheist posts.
