Facebook Censorship
So much for Facebook believing in "free speech." Ever since I started patrolling religious Facebook groups and notifying them of their delusion, I had my account disabled.
Note to all those on Facebook: don't say anything about your unbelief. You will be disabled. Then again, what do you expect...they're an American-run site and seeing as how atheists in America are oppressed and it's perfectly acceptable to do so in America I guess they can get away with it.
What a load of bullshit. Facebook atheists, stand up for your rights to free speech.

It's bullshit, I never openly attacked anyone. If theists have the right to come and bullshit in my atheist groups (which has happened numerous times) and they don't get disabled, then why should I? Sounds like Facebook admins are siding with the goody-two shoes "patriotic" Christians.
Either friendly debate is acceptable or its not. Facebook needs to make up its mind and not play favorites.
Just another reason the United States of fucking America has got to be the biggest hellhole on the face of the earth. I sure am glad I left.

I've always viewed it like this:
Remember when your parents told you not to tell your kid brother/sister that there is no santa clause? Something along the lines of "they're happier in their ignorance". It's not like you're telling them "Santa Clause eats children" in which case you are affirming the existence, but spreading unprovable myths about him.
Same thing here -- Facebook probably allows for commenting on the NATURE of a deity, but says no-no to disaffirming its existence. They're like "Come on guys, we know you're right, but just let them go on being ignorant; They look so happy that way!"
Or it could be something more like an 8th grader beating up a Kindergartner -- the atheist arguments are so good it's no challenge.
Or it could just be that they're figurative nazis.
