  • 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.

This is a thread for everyone to list atleast 10 positive things about their spouses. I realize this isn't always as easy for some as others. But I encourage everyone to join in.

I've read an article that the key to a successful marriage is to be able to give 5 compliments for each negative thing. Sometimes the problem is that we are too aware of our spouse's weak points, yet not their strengths. Have fun and good luck, I'll start.

1. My husband is observant (something I am not)
2. He's very good with directions
3. He's laid back
4. He's stable
5. Most people like him, more than me
6. He's nice and respectful
7. He's a hard worker
8. He's good with his hands
9. He gets a lot done around the house
10. He shares the chores with me and is considerate of my physical needs.
