  • 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.

    Who loses things more, you or your spouse?

    My husband. I'm a 'place for everything and everything in its place' kind of person, so I don't lose things often...but when I do, they're very lost! :) DH sets things down on the closest surface on a constant basis. I find his stuff in the weirdest places when I'm straightening the house. I...

    Rejecting the tyranny of "lawn care"

    We mow & occasionally use the weedeater...the end. :P We let most of our yard go for the wildlife. Deer keep it under control.

    Cute Things Kids Say

    There's been an ad playing for an Alvin and the Chipmunks movie in which there's a rendition of Beyonce's 'Single Ladies.' DD (8) started humming it, then she stopped and asked, "Is it 'Single Ladies' or 'Sing, Old Ladies?'" I told her the correct words and she said, "Oh. I thought it was 'Sing...

    Cute Things Kids Say

    My daughter does that, too. If it's an animal, she feels that the only way to speak to it is in a very high-pitched voice. :D

    Scripture memorization

    Do any parents here have their kids memorizing scripture? How do you do it at home - a certain amount of time for each new verse? A reward system? :confused: Any info would be helpful. Thanks. :)

    Marriage and children questions?

    You might change your mind. You might not. I can say that when I was younger, I didn't care for children. I wouldn't go so far as to say that I hated them, but they were annoying at best and I had no maternal desires whatsoever. 10 years later, I'm married and a mother and I love my kids more...

    Modeling

    I wouldn't be opposed to it when they were young, but as they got older I would worry about them starting to get the wrong priorities. *shrug*

    Wife has "secret" account?

    I think I have about 4 email addresses and my husband only knows about one...not because I'm hiding anything, but because they're insignificant. I log into them every few months to clean out the spam.
