• 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.

Does anyone know Dutch?

I used to know quite a bit of Dutch but it's absolutely gone, so since I have penpals as a hobby I'm trying to learn Dutch again. I did sooo much French in school but I am extremely basic. My Latin all disappeared.. Which languages do you know?

I am CPR/AED certified, do I need to put it in my custom title?

No you don't have to. I'm just proud of it, I try to be proud of minor acomplishments as well as major ones. :sigh:

More accuratly its Professional keep you alive til the EMT's get here. Or something like that. . .

Did you get your certification for a reason though. Cause everyone in my class had to know CPR for their job except me. . . I just went and got it for no apparent reason other then its good to know.

I know a little bit of Dutch, but I wouldn’t call myself fluent. I can understand some basic phrases and hold a very simple conversation, but I still have a lot to learn. The reason I know some Dutch is because I went to Belgium for a little while while I was at UNI. It’s a fun language to learn, and I like how it has similarities to English and German, which makes some of the vocabulary feel familiar. I definitely wouldn’t say I’m advanced, but I’m proud of the amount I’ve picked up so far and I’d love to keep improving.
