Don't worry about it

 There are things I wonder about....

You know how you'll be paging through Facebook or whatever else and see a post with a message such as, "Facebook doesn't want you to see this. Let's make sure it keeps going."

And it's perfectly innocuous picture of a little child praying or something else completely anodyne.

Why is it that some people love to feel like they're being trampled upon? Does daring to post something that no one is trying to ban make them feel better, or stronger, or what?

I was thinking about the days of COVID 19...the very early period. Someone I know shared a meme that said, "COVID 19 stands for Chinese-Origin Viral Infectious Disease #19." This allowed people to blame something on people from far away, which is always a popular option.

As far back as the ancients making up myths to explain things they had not developed means to understand (the weather, the origin of the world, the lives of the gods, the meaning of various social customs, etc) because people just want something to cling to.  A good example is when parents who lack the information to explain what thunder is tell their children who ask what thunder is that it's "God bowling." 

But as far as believing that Mark Zuckerberg is sitting in his Barca-Lounger Xing out pictures that have religious themes, don't count on that happening. But as to why people like to feel that it is, you got me wondering too.

Meanwhile, according to his posts and pics, Zuckerberg is dealing with a house full of girls who are all getting into ballet, and wearing jewelry himself, so post what you want and feel good about it!
