  • 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.

Another place of provision being found

As they went on down the great slope on that side, they saw further plants were yet larger. And then there were shrubs. It took a long while, but when they came near the bottom, there were small trees along the slope they saw there, and there were growths of plants right at the edge of the base of this mountain range. Seeing them closer, Hillariah said, "These are pine trees bearing cones, and these ones have seeds we would be able to eat."

Finarelem said, "You are right! I recognize them."

The group of people stopped there, and went to look at the cones to gather seeds that were already good. They gathered quite a lot, but here there were many of the trees, right by the bottom of the mountain range.

Deseradar said, "With these trees growing here, and all those strange plants there beyond them, there must be water sources around here, like we thought there must be. We must look and store up what water we can find!"
