  • 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 am assuming that you do not mean violence as in sibling rivalry, but more serious situations. In which case I can not think of a time when I was facing a problem in which I resorted to violence. I have thought of hypothetical situations in which I would use violence. I would use violence to protect a family member if they were under threat.

Do you ever get fed up with problems and pretend they do not exist? Does that make the problems better or go away?[/quote]I am the type of person that tends to worry and rarely can get problems out of my mind. But I must say that in the past year or so, I have been telling myself a lot that God will take care of it and he will see me through it. This helps me a lot. Now I am not saying that one can go through life without doing anything and God will do all the work, that is definately not true. You must put forth a lot of effort in life, but with God you do not have to carry any burden alone. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

Do you have an actual medicine cabinet? If you do and don't use it, what do you store in there?[/quote]I do have a medicine cabinet. It mostly has first aid stuff like band aids and neosporn.

What would you do/say if one of your best friends admitted he/she were a pedophile but he/she has not tried to molest any children and does not plan on doing so? Would you stop being friends with him/her? Would you urge him/her to get help? Would you consider reporting your friend?[/quote]This is a very difficult question. I can not imagine any of my friends being paedophiles. I would be thouroughly disappointed in them if they were. I would encourage them to get help. I don't know if I would turn them in or not, I would have to make a judgement call on whether I really thought they were a danger to children. A child would never be the same if they were molested and anything and everything must be done to protect children from paedophiles.

Would you rather be famous for discovering a controversial cure for a widespread disease (ie, you can cure cancer but it involves killing virgins and animal testing) or a regular cure for some relatively unknown disease that doesn't affect many people?[/quote]I would definately do the latter. I could never do research that involved destroying other human life. Murder should not be used as a shortcut to medical advances.

When I wake up my eyes are opened, in fact they are open most of the night. I don't actually sleep a lot, I tend to just lay awake, but I will still usually feel rested.

Why do people say, "The alarm just went off," when really it just came on?
Because usually they have already turned it off before they would say anything. Or at least I turn my alarm clock off (if I haven't already turned it off before it goes off) before I say anything. In fact I don't talk usually for an hour or so after I wake up.

Have you ever 'slipped into neutral'?
As a matter of fact I have. I drive a standard and I have slipped into neutral while driving or pulling out before.

Isn't Disney World just a people trap operated by a mouse?
So true so true. We just think we are the smartest species on the planet.

Why does the Easter bunny carry eggs? Rabbits don't lay eggs.
I am not sure, but maybe both rabbits and eggs represent new life and that is what Easter is all about. The opportunity for us all to have a new life.

I am sorry to say that I have not, or at least I don't think I have.

Do you double dip?
Not usually, I would never do it if I was sharing though.

Are you wearing shoes right now? If so... why?!
No I am not wearing shoes right now.

What was the last drug you took?
Do vitamins count? If not then I don't know, I took benadryl probably a month ago.

What is your favorite thing about your best friend?
Wow, where to begin. She is just so amazing. She is so intelligent and about a variety of subjects. I like how I can carry on a serious conversation with her and she comes up with serious thought out answers. We can talk about almost anything and we can be honest with each other and correct each other if need be.

Been my best friend.

Have you ever thought about setting all of the animals in the zoo free?
Not until now! Great idea!

Do you like the smell of gasoline?
Sometimes I do like the smell of gasoline.

What is your weapon of choice?
My mind.

Do plants die in your care?
Actually I am not really that bad with plants. I don't exactly have a green thumb, but not too bad.

No they do not. They manually turn the movies on and off and if there is no one there that wants to pay to watch it then they do no show it.

If you only have one eye, are you blinking or winking?
I guess you could be doing either one. It might be a little convenient. If you are a one eyed person and you like someone you could wink at them, but if they get offended and ask then you could just say you were blinking.

Why is it written "May contain traces of peanuts or other kind of nuts" on peanut butter jars? Are people stupid enough not to realize it themselves?
If they do not write the warning on the label then they can be sued for it having nuts in it. I know it sounds stupid but it is the truth, that is why companies have a whole legal department, they can be sued for all kinds of little things.

Do you believe that God has given you a gift? If so, what?
God gives everyone a gift, even non-Christians. Some people just haven't discovered their gift or have but don't realize it. I would like to think that I have a gift at strategizing political scenarios and what needs to happen to get a certain political or legislative result, but only time will tell. I hope that I have other gifts, but I don't know. Well I tend to remember lectures that I have had previously when I am taking an exam which is quite helpful...Thank you God

Have you ever asked God to take something away from you? Did He?
Stress, worry, acne, extra weight, debt, celery.....Sometimes he has, other times I didn't give it my all.

Pink! it is so scary

Do you ever see things aren't really there?
How should I know. If I see something then I assume it is there.

Would you be willing to try yoga?
Yes

Would you ever take your hands off of the wheel while driving to save your best friend from jumping out of the car?
Yes, I owe my best friend that.

Poof! You have the power to rule the entire world for one day... What changes do you make?
First, I would decree that I am hereby ruler for life and earth is now an Empire and I am its Emperor and and the role of emperor will be a hereditary position in which my family rules supreme forever. It will be the Robinett Empire. My capital will be in the British Isles (there are no native species of snake there). I would create work safety and fairness standards all across the world. Everyone would have access to food, clean water, shelter, chocolate, and jobs to provide for their family. Christianity will be the Imperial Religion, but it will be forced upon no one. I would immediately set up a council of experts to help me establish sustainable development in all parts of the world......I could go on forever.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Should you be heading to your closet about now?
Nope, I have come out of the closet.

Do you ever get the giggles and just can't stop laughing?
Yes, but not as much as some people I know.

What do you want to name your children?
Alexander, Brennick Wesley, Christian, Cameron, Jonathan, Michael....these are possibilities, would have to put more thought into though

Are you going to make your children work on the farm?
I want my children to have a sense of responsibility and a work ethic and to learn about God's wonderful creation and what better place than a farm. Animals' lives would depend on them, they would learn to do some honest work, and see God at work everyday.

I'm not 100% sure maybe Children's Christian Network or maybe UMCOR. They both do good work. Helping people all over the world.

How does your faith instruct your daily life?
My faith guides what I can and cannot do, what I should do or say. My faith embodies me. Without it I would be completely lost in this world.

If you were a book, what genre would you be and why do you think so?
Maybe a politician's memoirs or a political texbook. I love politics and what to get involved in them someday.

Do you appreciate what you have or do you complain about what you don't have?
I appreciate what I have. I thank God for all the blessings he has bestowed upon me.

If you could have known someone as a child that you know now, who would it be and why?
I don't know because that my change my outlook. Life experiences happen for a reason and I shouldn't mess with it probably. But I would have loved to have known Margaret Thatcher as a child or at any age really.
