Easter is putting me under pressure. Politicians spouting about their beliefs, in front of churches, after attending services. 
I shouldn't have to avoid media about my political candidates & their campaigns ... to avoid religious BS.
And, Papal vs Orthodox christian divide, is mind-bending. It's front & centre due to Ukraine conflict. I'm following a particular soldier. 
Oh the frustration, another 24hr ban from FB.
In my Atheist Group ... I said "... stupid christians can't even agree when Easter is." Papal vs Orthodox christians calculate differently, Orthodox Easter is next weekend.
"Considering how important this guy's death & becoming a zombie seems to be; how can 'when it happened' be forgettable?" "And, they fight wars over this nonsense." [Sic, paraphrasing myself]
So, am I going to be blocked here?
How can this be more offensive than the many many humorous memes & comments about zombification?
BTW this is my second FB offence in 6 mths. I was blocked for 3 days for being racist. I said, in random comment ... "That'll put a chink in their armour"!! Meaning 'a notch in their armour', of course. No relatiinshio to anyone's race, not involving a soecific person, let alone of their known race. I disputed it, & lost!!!
Apologies ... frustrated by foolishness! I'm usually the defensive 'political correctness' advocate (espec gender pronouns, racist adjectives etc). I don't call individuals stupid, can an entire religion not handle that word, and yet fight wars over their stupid differences?

An Obama administration official once had to resign for using the word "niggardly". People don't know the language any more.

I think I'd flinch at niggardly, if I heard it; and, it's not in my regular vocabulary. I recall she used it repeatedly, educationally pushing boundaries, using it to explain the issue. Not a problem in my book.
But, 'chink in armour', didn't even register in my head, it's a phrase not a word, and onomatopoeiac . It's almost Shakespearean, or Chaucerean.
Pleased to see my post not blocked. Until someone complains, perhaps. 
@LizZyG who, exactly, would anyone complain to????
@Garban, just above, just told you the site Admin has been AWOL for forever.
You could, if sufficiently contentious for no reason other than it's your hobby, find yourself frozen off the site because so many people individually blocked you....and that is Forever.
We prefer mature thought & discussion, (except for me, I am the resident Snark), not in-your-face BS for the sake of drama on here.
