  • 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.

A new way to preserve family recipes began with a grandmother and her dish of couscous.


Brothers Zach Mashaal and Matthew Mashaal, ages 16 and 17 respectively, of Roslyn, New York, loved their family's traditional holiday foods.

"I decided to record my grandmother cooking her famous couscous that we all love, and I'm going to put it into our group chat," Zach Mashaal told Fox News Digital. (See the video at the top of this article.)

After a positive reaction, the family members asked for additional videos for the chat.
