• 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.

Some random discussion on evolution...

There are many things in anatomy that don't make sense from a design point of view, yet make perfect sense from an evolutionary point of view.

How does the limited life span of humans, perfectly described in the bible, make sense evolution wise?

Unless you're married. Then it seems to go on f-o-r-e-v-e-r. :swoon:
Joking aside, not even then. Have you ever woke up one day and ask yourself where the years have gone? When you're young you think you will live forever, but after the years fly by you see how short it really is.

May I ask how old you are?

Prolly young compared to many, but old enough to see life pass me by. Mid 40's

You're young. Enjoy! But take care of your health and you'll have a wonderful life as a senior.

God willing. No one knows how many days they have left.

Just keep on keepin' on. When you get older you'll be able to afford the toys you wanted as a kid. I'm 79 and will be going for my sport pilot license this summer (did some fixed wing flying back in my 20's), then I can play around in one of these (maybe even with a gal).

No not yet.

I've had a full life, and I've had some serious medical issues that reminded me of my mortality, and when it's my time to go I won't fight it or fear it. And until then I have too many things to do to even think about it.

I have a great marriage, that sounds pretty good to me.

What kind of marriage do you have that it feels so horrible?

I had a good marriage. :) Unfortunately my wife didn't. :(
