  • 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.

    Online Dating

    I think they can work, but definitely aren't for everyone, and like Darth said I think they are more successful if you are in a larger area. I also think long distance can work as long as there is a plan for it to not remain long distance.

    Love Rend Collective! Such a fun band! They just seem to have so much fun and be so happy worshipping, and to me that is what worship should be like.

    What's on your mind? (76)

    That was while I was actually living in the States, but as an Australian it was a bit weird being there, as I'd never even heard of the Twin towers, and all these people in my class knew people near there and stuff. Our school stopped classes and had us all watching a television till we got...
