I actually have both Myspace and Facebook. I've noticed that Myspace is becoming more like Facebook, as far as it's features go. Here are my addresses, in case anyone would want to...

*Snicker* If I'd have put that survey together (What type of Pentecostal are you?), I'd ignore all the answers and give everyone the same result:

"You are a 'Wacko' Pentecostal"

Last night I saw a new application on Facebook, "What type of Pentecostal are you?" Thw lady who used it got the answer of "Pew Jumper." Just when I thought I had seen everything.

Thanks, sandray, that was very helpful. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that has gotten freaked out by that. IMHO, Facebook needs to stop trying to be quite that clever. If we don't have any friends in common, there's probably a reason, y'know?

scribe ... yes, it does feel very much like spying. I'm not even sure if it was intentional or not on the part of my former pastor, but I sure...

Wow, Marla - I sooooo wouldn't want anyone from my former p/c days to be "spying" on me (which is how it would feel if it was me)! Unless I am still friends with them IRL, I don't want them to have anything to do with my new life. Is that weird?

I mean, every time I have bumped into someone from my p/c days on the street, they have preached at me, not listened to what I said, offered some sort of Bible study / new course / faith-saving strategy, talked non-stop...

My sister is friends with a former youth pastor, on Facebook. One time I got an invite from him. I turned it down. Yeah, if you have family members on your friendlist, you will probally get noticed by people from your former church. I just feel that if I were to add one pastor I had, growing up, I'd have to look up and add all of the pastors I've ever known. Eventhough I did add this one girl I knew when I went to this particular church, and I accepted an add on from a girl from the...

You should tell her that she can hit 'ignore', or simply unfriend the former pastor's wife. She can exclude folks from her Facebook if she wants.

If it was listed as a friend request in the top right hand corner which you have to click on to see who it is, then he found you and requested to be your friend. If on the other hand you could see his pic in the area where it says, "Suggestions" then it's gawd messing with ya.

If that's the case, I think the whole mirror idea should help clarify things.

Weird question ... does anyone know how my former UPCI pastor may have suddenly appeared on my Facebook friend suggestions list?

As best I know, Facebook gives you friend suggestions based on having friends in common. For example, if I am friends with Anne and Betty, and Anne and Betty are both friends with Charlotte, then Facebook assumes I might know Charlotte and might want to add her to my friends list.

Today suddenly, there my old pastor is in my friends...
