  • 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.

Just felt an earthquake for the first time. 3.5. Freaky.

Mary

I didn't know they had earthquakes there? But then again, there was one in Alabama a few years back.

My first earthquake, I didn't know what it was. No ground shaking. Just a huge BOOM and it felt like a bear had jumped on the roof of the cabin. San Bernadino mountains in Cali.

I pray no one was hurt.

It's the first one I've felt, but there have a been a bunch of small quakes over the last few years, mostly centered in Irving. Most of us think it is due to all the fracking going on, but no one seems to be sure.

I heard a lot of that was going on in Arkansas, and they blamed the increased earthquakes on that.

I don't know a great deal about it, but it really does seem a potentially disastrous activity. It seems we are too prone to developing technologies and practices and jumping into them without really knowing what the results would be
