  • 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 may not belong here, I don't know. If its inappropriate, please let me know.

After many years of discussion, thought, and prayer, my husband and I have decided to search for his birth family. We have found out some things: he was born in San Francisco, his birth mother was a registered nurse, in the Army or recently discharged. His birth father was also in the Army. The adoption was arranged by an Army chaplain.
His birth mom was Irish Catholic, from Pennsylvania, his father protestant, from Texas (he was also married, with two children). They may both still be alive.

The reason I'm posting this is that I am wondering if any one here has ever embarked on this sort of journey. I'm sure it will not be easy and we both know that there are risks involved, at least emotionally. But its something that we feel we need to do. Any advice would be appreciated. But especially, we would both appreciate your prayers. :pray:

thanks, lynn
