Have you tried asking any of them in person why they are doing this? If they won't give you an honest, straight answer then maybe it's time to evaluate them and realize that they aren't true friend nor christians if they treat you this way. If they have all blocked you, the next step would be to take them off your friends list, because it sounds like that's what they've done with you. Maybe it's also time you find a different church to go to?

How do you tell if someone blocked you? I "unfollow" people sometimes. I thought this was private. Is this what is shown? Oh horrors! I unfollow them because I only have time to read my close friends and family. Other people keep posting scripture, pictures, videos, what they had for dinner, etc. When I start seeing things like that, I just "unfollow".

Others cannot tell if you "unfollow" them, this simply means their posts are not prioritised on your newsfeed (home page) If someone has "blocked" you, you will no longer be able to see what they post - even if they post on your friends' wall. I hope this helps. I treat my facebook wall and friends as a personal thing - almost like a private diary and so if I feel uncomfortable with anything or anyone I think it is my privilege to "unfriend" or even "block" them. I have had atheists complain about Christian content on my own wall! I don't tell them what to put on their wall and so I don't expect others to tell me what to put on mine and I tell them this - it's simple.

If they are blocking you, have you considered your conversation? Is it edifying?

I agree with blue ladybug about asking someone personally. You will never know what is going on if you don't talk to someone about this and your mind can go pretty crazy imagining the different possible reasons. I hope you are able to find out the truth.
