  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    I'm still kickin'. I don't know if I mentioned that I probably have a duodenal ulcer. (in the duodenom, usually a non- bleeder) Omeprazol seems to work. We're still working on helping dad get his house clean. He and my mom were pack- rats. Not quite on the level of hoarders. I think we'll try...

    I'm alive. The coils were put in my lung on Monday. It was uneventful. In a few weeks, they'll do a CT of my brain. We need to make sure that it's still there. I thought I'd lost my mind in the past... now we'll know for sure. Winter break has arrived. I'm off work for two weeks. Yay...

    A question about "Soul Sleep"

    The Jehovah's Witnesses teach that the body and soul are one. (Charles Russell came fron the SDAs. ) Does the SDA church teach this also? This discussion brings to mind the NDEs that are reported. I watched a show on tv about this two days ago.

    Updates: My mom passed away on November 16th. She held on until the last two family members that could had arrived at her bedside. All but her oldest child was in attendance. She'd had three cardiac arrests that morning, then her blood pressure plummeted. They had her on BP meds to keep it up...

    I'm requesting prayers for myself. My CT results show nodules in my right lung. Please pray that is nothing serious and easy for the doctors to fix. Thanks!

    My CT results are back. They found nodules in my lower right lung. They're going to schedule a consult with a Pulmonologist. Mel, when you're standin in the OR, don't lock your knees. Do you get to start closing for the surgeons? Counting instruments and wrappers to make sure you didn't leave...

    We're supposed to get to 77 here in central Iowa. It's supposed to be more seasonal next week. My fourth graders get to host our Harvest Carnival this year. They're excited. So am I. My CT scan is scheduled for Monday morning. I get to drink a different kind of witch's brew for this test. I...

    My blood count is back to normal. I had a colonoscopy, it came back clean. The Doc. wants me to get a CT scan.

    oops The really fun part of the anemia... I thought for a week or two that I was fighting anxiety attacks. The symptoms are similar. Fatigue, heart palpitations, feeling faint, vertigo. It's CRAZINESS I tell you! :P
