I have a problem. Every time I see a potentially controversial Facebook post, tweet, message board posting, online news story, or any other message of the sort, I am immediately drawn to and sucked into the comments section.
For those unfamiliar with the more social media-esque methods of sharing news and information, the comments section allows people who’ve read the article — or just glanced at the headline — to type out and share their thoughts on it for all to see. These comments are often opinionated, emotional, or a reflection of one’s thoughts while reading said article or post.
These comments, even in the online Catholic media, can lead to a lot of back and forth debating — or let’s be honest, arguing — sometimes getting very personal.
