At the side there's a lot of suggested groups that I find annoying and offensive, for example ones involving religion. Is there anyway I can hide them? Can I use Ad block plus to hide them?

There is a browser extension called Social Fixer that can, among many other things, permanently hide parts of Facebook pages.
You can get it at http://socialfixer.com for Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Safari.
After it's installed, hover over the Suggested Groups section, and an X should appear. Clicking the X will hide the area permanently (or until you change your settings to get it back again).

Thanks for the advice, though I'm not sure it's worth it to install an add on that would slow down the browser just for one site. But I'll give it a try! Commented Jan 23, 2014 at 7:41

I hear you on that. For what it's worth, I find the add-on extremely helpful in general, so if you spend enough time on FB, you may grow to love it. But if not, no hard feelings ;)– erynoCommented Jan 23, 2014 at 19:05

Current versions of social fixed require you to do something before you get the "X". Enabling "Hide/Show parts of screen" on the pull down menu is necessary first. Commented Dec 9, 2017 at 0:57
