  • 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.

I was born in Montreal, moved around a lot, mostly in Ontario and Quebec. Did one year of college at John Abbott in 02/03, quit to start working instead and have been working since.
I've never really had any idea what I wanted to do in life, so I'm praying and waiting for God to show me what I'm supposed to do.
I became a catechumen in the Orthodox Church on Nov. 3, 2007 after looking into it for a few months and getting hooked on the conversion stories in TAW forum here. Was baptized into the Orthodox Church on 8th of June, 08 :)

Abba Anthony said, "A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him saying, "You are mad, you are not like us." -- Desert Fathers

Unless the Lord builds the house, they labour in vain who build it.
-Psalm 127:1
