  • 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.

    Another wife of Aspie

    Thanks for replying. It helps me feel not so invisible. I'm the one who is "barely hanging on." He is content with everything going his way, no challenges. He can do superficial conversation. After 25 years, you expect to have a deeper connection. He was faking his faith when we married, but we...

    Another wife of Aspie

    hi everybody. I'm searching for the strength to thrive in marriage to a nice man who is not a Christian, but pretends, and who seems to have Aspergers. He is a good father, and checks all the boxes. I do believe that the Bible has all the answers. It's hard to be attracted to someone who...
