• 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.

And Boromir. And Praven's jokes. And boys with misguided crushes on you. I pity the man you choose to marry... I can envision him begging on his knees before Queen Locket. :p

*laughs* A thing has to go on quite long and steadily to annoy me (three hours in Boromir's case, several years for Praven, and twice a week for two years with the crush), and one whatever it is has reached that level, it's very hard to reverse my opinion. And yes, if my level is reached in a marriage, I may be a terror for a good fifteen minutes or so, but I'm rather mushy with the people closest to me and staunchly loyal.

I don't know what to say to that... Sounds almost like my kinda girl. Sorta makes me homesick for my girl, whoever she is and wherever she might be in time and space.

I like to challenge opinions. They're as changeable as furniture, and I like people to see that. But it's okay if they don't. It would be wrong if everyone agreed with me.

I knew you were going to say that. Or, Philip was going to pop in and call me an idiot. Too bad both didn't happen...

I really do try not to have opinions. I usually only debate something if I know for a fact that it's true (existence of God and the like). I have opinions on some things, but those are few and far between. I usually try to figure out what's what before I argue about it.

Unless I feel like being a total >censored for your viewing relaxation<, then I may just argue for the heck of it. :p

That truly would be a frightening world.

Heh heh heh... I'd feel bothered. There'd be nobody to tell me how disrespecctful I am of others. ^_^ And girls wouldn't be as interesting anymorre. Neither would guys, at that. I'd go soft, lose all sense of self, and die a horrible death wondering what I had done to the world...
