  • 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.

Hypothetical Versus Practical Part 2

....he was right of course....my brain had taken my fear and gone on a bad rollercoaster ride with it without a shred of evidence to support it. In my hyperthetical universe this had taken place in the space of a day. Why didn't I just wait and see what the boss said on Monday? ....and as it happened he was pleased with my work and wanted to thank me ....and I then thought..."oh he's just humouring me, I'm not that good" ...but that's a trait for another time.

My point is or more specifically my therapist point was, I had no idea why my boss wanted to see me and there was nothing I could do practically until I knew more...so why waste all that time worrying about something I can do nothing about beforehand?

Now to practical worries....the car starts making weird noises....[bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] it's going to explode....hang on...it's making noises ....I can take it to a garage a d get them to check it out. This was something I could deal with and did...turned out to be a minor matter.

Bottom line is this something I can do something about practically or is it just hyperthetical?

Stay safe and remember you are not alone.
