• 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.

Glad you could join on the Golden Eagles, Diamantina! Hope you enjoy the fellowship, and Happy Birthday!

Thank you @faithinlife! I had a very nice birthday -- my mother gave me a new Nook (the screen of my previous Nook shattered about a month ago), a beautifully illustrated book on the saints and a pair of earrings. We also went out to lunch together: I had filet mignon and lobster tail (lobster is my favorite food but I eat it only once or twice a year).

Hi everyone

Although I've been lurking around CF for a number of years in about two weeks time I will turn 50. So I thought I'd pop in and say 'hello'
Hi Lotuspetal, nice to see you. I'm in the UK too. (I've just realised you were born in my O-level year! ) I hope you enjoy GE.
