• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

My priest quoted a scene from Monty Python during catechesis this morning. Verbatim... with voices and everything. (don't ask. We got off on a tangent and ended up with the wonderful absurdity of Monty Python).

I can not express how awesome this is. I laughed so hard I almost cried.

Which scene did he quote?

Run away! Run away!

The second shrubbery scene where the knights who used to say "Ni!" command Arthur to get a second shrubberry (and the whole landscaping design) and then to find the mightiest tree in the forest and cut it down with a herring.

I told my husband when he got home and of course I immediately got to listen to *his* version of the entire scene. Monty Python rocks!

Pretty much:

YouTube - The Knights Who Say, "Ni!"

from 4:00 on.

AHA - and earlier the quick reply box was missing

NOW it's back

well I suppose we really do have to expect problems - they were trying to update after the 'hacking' and things went wrong with that so they had to go back to a stage prior to the 'hacking' .

I suppose the database had been routinely backed up and had things up to the 27th March and not afterwards.

It is CF of course and weird things can and do happen

It kinda reminds me of a Star Trek episode where they were caught in a time warp, and time kept going back and "resetting" in an endless loop.

I lost half my rep points because of it. I am ticked. Thank God CF would not let me renew my membership about a month ago because now I don't want to renew it. If they want my money they need to give me my reps back.

Just be happy the hackers didn't cause more problems, they can't exactly do anything about it. Apparently a lot of Christian sites have gotten hacked. Devil on the move during western Holy Week.

What, doesn't Satan know what the proper calendar is? Holy Week started this morning, not last Sunday!

Could it be that he attacked us "Western" types and you guys, although immune, got caught in the fall-out?;):D^_^

Nah

teflon is just non-stick tuff - useful but it wears out :(

Immunity comes from being given something in a very mild form that will , help your body to over come infection - in this case Knowledge of the Father :)

We are immune? Does that mean we are coated in teflon???

Yup, teflon is man made stuff, so not good enough for this job!

Scripture recommends :preach:putting on "The whole armor of God". That's what we need!:thumbsup:
