  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I've only felt like this a handful of times in my life, but I miss the place of my birth! It's like feeling homesick. I want to take a pilgrimage and go back to it.

I was born on the Space Coast of Florida in a tiny town called Palm Bay. My little sister was born there too.


I haven't been to Palm Bay in over 30 years! I am really starting to miss it; I view it as my real home. And the beaches I grew up playing on when I was a kid... =( And the fishing was incredible too. =D

Have any of you ever felt this way about where you were born?

Where were you all born anyway? :scratch: Maybe we got some city slickers on here? Lol. ^_^

Have any of you ever felt this way about where you were born?
Yes, and it is a long way from a small town in Florida - it is on the southern edge of London.

My birth, in my family's then home, caused a load of complications in life too.

I have been back to the town a few times, it is only an hour away, I can get there. But it is not the same now, the local community has changed beyond all recognition since the army were moved to somewhere else.

London is not exactly the same, but London is much harder to change...it has been there, being itself, for a very long time.
