  • 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.

    so scard...

    This must be so hard for you. I'm not a parent, but I can offer advice/an opinion from your daughter's perspective. When I was 17 I started going out with a boy who didn't know Jesus. My parents were dead against it. I knew I shouldn't be doing it from the start - I'd always been taught that...

    Hey there, I'm not a parent yet, we're currently ttc, but I'm going to be a mother at some point, even if we adopt. I want to be a good mother ... does anyone have a recommendation of a Christian book on raising children. I'd particularly like one that focuses on child development as well...

    Will you find out the gender?

    I'd want to know ... I think it will help me to bond with the baby. You treat boys and girls differently; I hate calling unborns 'it'! But I can see the pleasure of a surprise. Come to think of it ... don't think I've asked dh about this :eek:

    What does is mean if you feel differently?

    Hey Amazon, I was also due over Christmas ... Christmas day in fact. I knew I'd be gutted if AF showed on 25th so I prayed about it, and God is so good - period started 24th so by next day I felt ok about it (though still disappointed). I sometimes get scared, or apprehensive about having...

    Hi everyone :wave: I've already introduced myself in the new members section, but just wanted to be a bit more specific here. Hope that's ok. I'm 26, married for just over 2 years (how that has flown!) and now dh and I are ttc :clap: We came off contraception in Nov, but only properly...

    Hi

    Hi there! Just wanted to introduce myself briefly. I'm a follower of Jesus, currently serving him in marriage and working, hoping he'll grant me the high calling of motherhood this year :)
