  • 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.

    How do people deal with the periods of loneliness

    I am in the same situation. Although my husband has not moved out yet, he has filed for divorce, and is in the process of buying a new house. I don't think I could kick him out, but it is difficult for him to be here. This was all his decision and I feel resentful that he is breaking up our...

    How do you cope with not seeing your kids every day?

    My son is 2 1/2, and my daughter just turned 4. Yes, as shocking as that seems, his reason for divorce is because I'm a christian. His goal when we were going to counselling was that I become an atheist. I go to church on Sundays and take the kids with me. I also go on Wednesday nights alone...

    How do you cope with not seeing your kids every day?

    Hello, I am in the beginning stages of a divorce. My unbelieving husband is leaving me because I am a Christian and "brainwash" our children (ages 2 1/2 and 4). My husband, who has never lifted a finger to take care of the kids until earlier this year, when all of this started, wants 50%...

    At my wit's end...

    Well, the update here is that my husband is divorcing me. And trying to get 50% custody of the kids (the same ones he never wanted, and uses as an excuse to get out of the relationship). I am fighting this tooth and nail. I don't mind them visiting him occasionally (say, every other weekend...

    Thank you for your post, Diane. I came to this board because I was hoping to get some support (by way of words and/or of prayer). I have never been through something like this before, nor has anyone of my friends or church members. I felt that in order for people to understand what I'm...

    But he's not leaving. Aren't I supposed to wait until he leaves, and if he does, then let him depart? Wouldn't it be great if God would just come down and say, "hey, listen up. This is what you're supposed to do!". LOL. I'm taking it one day at a time right now. I'm loving on my kids and...

    I wonder about that too. I can't think of any situation or experience that he's told me about, though that doesn't mean there isn't one. There's something new every day as to why he doesn't love me, or why he thinks I'm such a bad person. Yesterday, it was because I am a bigot (really?!) and...

    Thanks for your reply. I do have some ladies that I talk to: one at the church and a couple at work who are Christians. That definitely helps. But they don't come home with me. I went on vacation with the kids to Florida where my parents live (my husband refused to come with us because he...

    Hello all! Firstly, I would like to say how happy i am to find this forum! It is wonderful (in a wierd kind of way) to know that other people are going through similar things to me. Ok, I am going to try to make a very long story short... I was a Christian before I met my non-believing...
