  • 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.

    Hobucken - New Bern, North Carolina

    Hey there, I used to live in New Bern and I still consider it my home. I moved to Vanceboro about a year and a half ago, which is only less than 15 minutes west of New Bern. But anyway, New Bern is a great little city and it was NC's first capital. It's a historically rich city to say the least...

    Christian fiction...

    Tamara, thanks for suggesting more of Francine Rivers' books. I will most definitely keep 'em in mind. My next trip to Books.A.Million I'll have to see if they carry them. I had to read some of the Bronte books in school and have seen some of the movies as well. I really enjoy material set...

    Wish you were doing something else in life?

    I sorta have mixed feelings about where I'm at and what I could be doing in life. Presently I work at a home appliance manufacturing plant and I've been there roughly 3 years now. I have been diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome because of what I do. The work is very repetitious and hard on...

    Comfort Foods

    Ok, you've got a chocoholic on your hands now. My ultimate comfort food is Ben & Jerry's "Half Baked" ice cream. It's chocolate ice cream with chocolate chip cookie dough and brownie batter mixed in. Two words: absolutely amazing!! :thumbsup: ~Chele
