• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

One man can cause unlimited financial turmoil, which impacts billions of people world wide.


It's not just the traders - a lot of Australians have their retirement funds tied up in superannuation which in turn depend on the markets. My wife and I are two of them.

No doubt the markets will claw their way back in time, but retirees are also drawing down on reduced superannuation funds in the meantime which will probably not fully recover.

I think Australia wills start moving more towards the Asians, notably China and Japan, and move away from the USA thanks to Trump and Musk.

I didn't get on with my father to put it mildly, but he did have some words of wisdom one of which was "In politics yesterdays enemies becomes tomorrow's friends, and yesterday's friends become one's enemies."

The current president has made a business out of using surface
language of solving everyone's problems, effortlessly.

The reality, is that the current president does not want personal accountability,
and is a very poor manager. It seems that he hires people to manage his policies,
who have little knowledge of what they are managing. Then, when they fail, or
become unpopular, he fires them and hires someone else.

This president does not have the understanding that

"The buck stops here!"

And, the "here" is the president's desk.
