• 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.

  • 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.

So true:

“There are only four kinds of people in the world: those who have been caregivers, those who are caregivers, those who will be caregivers and those who will need caregivers,” she has said over the years.

Jimmy Carter may not necessarily have been the most effective President.

But of all the US presidents that I've lived through - thirteen so far that I know about starting with Eisenhower (although I was too young to remember him) - I think Jimmy Carter had the most personal integrity.

As a side note the first time I really became aware of a US President was President Kennedy's assassination. It seems odd but "everyone" seems to remember what they were doing when that happened.

Meanwhile a far more effective Christian, CS Lewis, died on the very same day but his death went almost unnoticed as all the world's attention was focused on Dallas, Texas.
