  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Aiming for what is in sight

While the sun came up again, and all were thinking of coming to a place where they could stop, eat a little from their rations, and sleep enough after all that walking through the night, they could see some small difference in the area through which they currently went. The ground was a different texture than the sandy area they had traveled through, and small areas here and there had tufts of dried brown grass. And further ahead, there were very small areas of small tufts of green grass. Further on they were growing more closely together, until they blended into the green area seen further on. There was a very distant treeline seen. And very far away what seemed to be white mountains were just in view with the sun now just up. So they plodded on encouraged.

Deseradar said soon, "There is a creek I can discern further ahead, we can go on to reach that."

Hillariah said, "We would still want to make temporary shelters for ourselves where we could sleep enough while we can." The others agreed to that.
