  • 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.

Haha...I would except that you two Anglicans might gang up and submarine my plan to get him into the Lutheran church.
He is surprised by and receptive to our more conservative theology and I found an ELCE church near his home so I'm rather excited. I had no idea the LCMS was represented in the UK.

I'm from a conservative Anglican denomination...I won't stop someone from going to a conservative Church...I welcome it...

Well, it's all icy around here, so I'm staying home today. Nice to be home because of weather and not becuase of the illness that's been dogging me the past week.

I've finished my Valentine present. I got two sets of children's valentine cards -- Scooby Doo for my daughter, who loves SD, and Pirates of the Caribbean for my husband. Then I wrote out 32 different reasons I love them, and filled in the cards. This morning while they slept I went around the house taping up the cards -- the SD ones are down low where the 5 year old can find them, and the Pirates ones are higher.

It will be fun when they wake up and start finding the cards!

My husband and daughter both stayed home today because of the snow. The drifts are outrageous! I'm surprised my daughter's school was called off because when I went to school there, they NEVER called off except for maybe two times my entire schooling!!

synger -- very cool idea! a lot of thought & work & love without a lot of money!!
I wish I could claim credit for it, but actually I heard the idea on the local Christian music radio station, and I thought it was the sweetest idea. So last night while we were watching TV, I had my notepad out and made my lists, then once everyone was asleep I wrote the things on the cards, and this morning I taped them up all over. *grins happily* My husband has found most of his. I know he's missed the one that's taped to the broadsword hanging on the wall in our dining room, but I think that's the only one of his left.

It's really icy here. Ice will shut us down faster than snow will. When I was growing up in Michigan we were lucky to get one snow/ice day a year. Here in Maryland, people panic at anything more than a dusting. *shakes her head and chuckles* But I don't mind. It's nice to work from home for a day.

I don't know if groundhog tastes like chicken, but nutria tastes a bit like roast beef - but it is very bony. .and. . .i don't know, I only took one small bite. I am not fond of eating fur bearing mammals!
