    I'm headed to church in about an hour.....if anybody lives in northern Indiana and is interested in checking it out.
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    Not sure if this fits or even if the lyrics are more subjective for me than not, but they're quite liberating...thought-provoking.

    It's annoying getting notifications for his events.

    Oh ok. Were you able to turn stuff off like suggested from above with the pics?

    Or yes I agree just unfriend him. He's not singling you out....? Right? He's just sending to all on his list. He's not gonna go thru and say "oh yeah. .. so and so won't come".

    If it bothers you enough just unfriend.

    He actually sends to less people than on his friends list. I was on my phone. Will try from my pc next time.

    I unfollowed my own brother because his and his wife's constant "praise the lord" shit.

    religious recruiters don't stop. plus, it's facebook. it's easy to just "invite everybody" in one click. it's no different than all those stupid fucking game requests I get from friends. I have blocked many of those games. some of the people I have just unfollowed.

    honestly, if facebook causes you this much stress, delete your account. people kept in touch before facebook. so can you. you might enjoy sitting down and writing a letter instead anyway. or picking up the phone. despite what social media tells you, you aren't missing anything by not seeing your cousin's kid's 150 baseball action shots.
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    I blocked the group, I wonder if that will help.

    I did the same to my cousins wife.
    All I saw on my newsfeed was her religious stuff and anti gay marriage likes and comments.

    Good for you ThoughtsArrive.
    Facebook unfollowing also lets the other person know that you couldn't care less what they ate or are eating at the moment.

    I didn't know that option was available when I removed her from my friend list.
    Otherwise I would've just unfollowed. No wonder they didn't visit my family when they came to Australia recently haha
