Anybody notice an increase in xtian ads on Facebook?

Has anybody noticed that there has been an increase of xtian advertising on facebook? There is an ad that keeps showing up for the methodist youth network, and it's sponsored so I can't click it off. There are also these ads for Regent "university" and something called "The mission" thats trying to get people to preach in Africa. If I had the money I'd put up some RRS counter ads.

I haven't noticed the

I haven't noticed the increase in Christian ads although I did get more "Are you getting married" ads as soon as I said Kelly and I put engaged on our profile.  As a side note, I just submitted a cancellation on that annoying scientology ad.  Fuck LRH and Tom Cruise.

Can't say I have, but while

Can't say I have, but while we're on Facebook, does anyone know how to join a group but set it so only you can see it in your groups? I'm sure I heard you can.

How did you ever guessI don't know why they can't just accept my atheistic need to eat babies?

 You may want to look up

 You may want to look up how they track your traffic. It's possibly the most invasive program ever. Just sayin' is all.

Nah, that'd be IE.  Hell, it's own OS won't run without it.

So you understand why I left that ignoble profession then? Hehe.

Check out the new dynamic ad software that Facebook is using. I forget what it's called, but at first it was staying persistent even after you logged out of Facebook. There was some "oh, gee, we're sorry - we didn't know it would do that" bullshit, and that was the last straw for me and Facebook. I don't know what has happened since.

*shudder*

That shit scares me, only because I wonder how much of it is voluntary. If you catch my meaning.
