"Facegloria was born as an alternative to the excess of freedom, excess of vulgarity that exists on Facebook for example, where there is freedom (to show) everything: decapitations, pornography and a series of images that profoundly disrespect family (values)."

8. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Acir Fillo, founder of Facegloria:
"All are welcome, but these things (referring to homosexuality) are really forbidden. I am not ashamed to say that two men kissing is disrespectful to the family. 'Oh but don't they have the right to do so?' Yes, in their homes. 'Do two women have the right to have a sexual relationship?' They do have the individual right, and I respect that, but inside their own houses. We don't accept and disagree when it is public and influences people and children."

A group of Brazilian evangelical Christians, looking for social media platform with a difference, have come up with a new networking site they have called "Facegloria".
Violence, sexual topics and obscenities are banned from Facegloria, founders say.
On the site, the equivalent of a "like" is "amen".
"Facegloria was born as an alternative to the excess of freedom, excess of vulgarity that exists on Facebook for example," said Acir Fillo, who is the head and founder of the social network.
Fillo says all are welcome on the site if they respect Christian values.
According to Fillo, more than 600 offensive or obscene words along with erotic content, violence, and any reference to homosexuality, are banned from Facegloria.
The conservative social networking site has already attracted at least 120,000 users since its launch in June.
Brazil's most well-known gospel singer, Aline Barros, is among its supporters.
Facebook, which claims some 1.4 billion users around the world, isn't amused with the site's use of the word "Face" in its name.
It sent a cease-and-desist order to change the name, holding out the possibility of legal action.
Aside from the legal challenges, it's too early to say if the platform will survive for the long haul.
Many others have tried to build Christian-oriented social media sites and some of the more ambitious projects no longer exist.
