  • 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 used to think my infant baptism and the fact that I took up space on a pew saved me. Now I know that is not true. I had attempted suicide 3 times the last week of 1977, shortly before I turned 29. Two of the times I had a pistol against my temple, trigger half pulled. I did not care if I hurt my family, I just wanted to cease to exist. BUT SHEAR TERROR CAUSED ME TO DROP THE PISTOL BOTH TIMES. That TERROR was way beyond what was humanly possible.bb It was a TERROR of knowing I was about to walk into HADES/HELL. FINALLY, I surrendered to Jesus Christ, purely out of LOVE FOR HIM. I willing gave HIM control of my life. He has been doing a much better job of running my life, than I ever did.

My Avatar represents A Veteran who believes in supporting our Country and our Troops, while being Led by CHRIST HIMSELF.
