    I am in the group and have most of you as friends now. And now I know who got me into this to start with, as webdog didn't have "webdog" on the invite. I already have a MySpace, but it mainly to keep up with my duaghter.

    If I don't have you, shoot me an invite. You will find me on everyone else's friend list.

    I got kicked off one board for saying this:

    Every place on MySpace is just three clicks away from porn.

    Seems one of the young ladies on that board had a MySpace account & I 'had insulted her' (her place was one of the nice places on MySpace). I didn't apologize when asked to apologize. I refuse to say statements like "I apologize for your reactions" cause one can only really apologize about things over which one have control. I had control over my statement. Needless to say, you could go to her MySpace, click three times and see stuff - stuff I don't like my 11-year-old to see. Come to think of it - she explained the transvestite at church last Sunday pretty well for an 11-year-old.

    Ah for the good old days when men were men, when women were women, and when transvestites were cross-dressers :wavey:

    Here is what they say when I try to log-in:



    Here is the same sentence written in English:

    You have been banned for the following reason:
    You're ungodly and lack humility. Goodbye.

    Date the ban will be lifted: Never

    Well as bad as myspace is, I thank God for the presence of Christians on it.
    In case you didn't read it, read this thread http://www.baptistboard.com/showthread.php?t=50365

    One of my friends met Jesus last week through a bulletin I posted on Myspace. And because of Myspace, over 500 people have heard the gospel that I know of within the last week...

    Besides, it only takes a couple clicks to get to porn from anywhere on the internet if a person really wants to see the junk.

    On MySpace, you will find me HERE.

    A couple of my friends on there have some questionable profile pics (including my daughter right now), but not all of my friends are Christian, either.

    Christian Myspace

    I ran across this site he other day. Obvously MySpace and Facebook are very different, but I'm wondering if there is a "Christian Version" of Facebook as well?

    http://www.yourchristianspace.com/

    And of course there is GodTube, the Christian alternative to YouTube.

    Look I have nothing against Facebook I belong but I use it for business and my family can reach me there. I would not recommend this site as a social gathering allthough that pretty much is what Facebook is used for. :jesus:

    Why wouldn't you recommed it for "social gathering"? Isn't your family reaching you on facebook a "social gathering" of sorts? ;)

    That's cool. It was intended for social networking, however...

    Facebook (branded as "facebook") is a social networking website launched on February 4, 2004.
