"Social Media and Community - What the Numbers Really Mean"
According to a recent survey, 37% of Americans use social media as a way to connect with others. However, this article from Forbes fails to mention some important factors. The article talks about how people have found peace in sharing their lives online and how social media has been used as a tool for advocacy for those who thought they were voiceless otherwise. The author of the article is talking more about how social media is used as a tool for people who want to make others feel left out of the conversation. The author compares social media to bubble tea, which is meant to be consumed quickly by someone who needs some refreshment or sustenance after a long day. The author points out that not everyone needs to stay connected or communicate with others as much as they do, but she fails to realize that these people who are using social media for this purpose are doing so because they have a passion for the things that they share and want to make a difference in their community.

The Catholic Church in the Philippines (Filipino: Simbahang Katolika sa Pilipinas; Spanish: Iglesia Católica en las Filipinas) is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual direction of the Pope. The Philippines is one of the two nations in Asia having a substantial portion of the population professing the Catholic faith, along with East Timor, and has the third largest Catholic population in the world after Brazil and Mexico.[1] The episcopal conference responsible in governing the faith is the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines.
Christianity was first brought to the Philippine islands by Spanish missionaries and settlers, who arrived in waves beginning in the early 16th century in Cebu. Compared to the Spanish Era, when Christianity was recognized as the state religion, the faith today is practiced in the context of a secular state. In 2015, it was estimated that 84 million Filipinos, or roughly 82.9% to 85% of the population, profess the Catholic faith

Double-talk is defined as a way of communicating with others that uses ambiguity, or double meanings, in order to confuse the audience, and hide a truth that the speaker does not want to reveal. It is also known as talk that can make absolutely no sense, again with the goal of confusing, and which can mislead a listener from understanding the truth.
