Torah Perspective on Facebook – CLICK TO COMMENT

By Moshe Benhamu When I got home one day, I went on Facebook. I saw that people began to follow people who surfed. I went online to get a picture of a kid surfing. I posted it in Facebook and I got more followers. Social media strips our individual qualities. If you like music and people don’t, you’ll get a different hobby you don’t like. On Facebook, you can’t express your feelings because your friends aren’t really your friends. It locks you away from being yourself and having true friends.
