Is Facebook Better Than The Bible?

I see how there would be quite a negative notion towards facebook. Many users think people are obsessed and that facebook is taking over their lives. And I agree with the fact that many students are online on facebook way too often. But if used in moderation, facebook is a tool that is the equivalent to solving world hunger. Facebook has enabled this writer, and millions like him, to literally search inside the mind of someone you barely know, or would not have known at all without the networking site; people like quiet classmates, teammates, co-workers. You can to dabble into their minds, when normally you wouldn’t have given them the time of day. I can search a girl who may be in my math class and realize she has the same interest in fencing as I do. This can spur a benevolent conversation and even a deeper bond between us. Further, by engaging myself in these deeper bonds it requires me to care about my actions and words to others. If I have a connection with someone, I don’t want to lose that connection and that bond, so I’ll care for it as if it were a child. I’ll nourish and cultivate this connection. Facebook is the means of opening up to others, to expose the human’s normal mindset to be kind and caring, because we are all, of course, human.
