• 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.

I noticed how different this forum looks now. I'm not sure what to think of it.

It has brought alot of negativity to this sub forum. Not saying this place is always 100% positive, but it's usually pretty chill. Not sure where it will lead. The 'Mormon detractors' seem to have thin skin so hopefully the 'wrath of the mods' won't be brought down on our peaceful little sub forum. I think they are meeting alot of resistance here compared to the Unorthodox sub forum and they don't like it.

I think they have really messed this forum up bringing all that over here. Good grief. And there was a sub-forum for Mormons, it was the unorthodox Christianity forum. What happened to that forum?
They removed it I think.

I think they have really messed this forum up by bringing all that over here, IMHO.

And there already was a sub-forum for Mormons, it was the unorthodox Christianity forum (or something like that). What happened to that forum?

They shut it down, started a new sub-forum called Controversial Theology from which Mormons and Jehovah Witnesses are banned as non-Christians.

Nah, stormy weather sometimes,

otherwise, same old, same old,

In any case, which is best,

the kettle boils over or does not boil at all?

I'm sorry you haven't been feeling well, my friend.

Thanks.

I don't feel sick. I'm suspecting that my throat hurts due to working out.

Just finished my 4th workout.

When I started I could barley do 50 reps, now I can do 80.

Although I'm starting to think sooner or later I should join a real gym. I'd just like to pack a little more muscle/form before I go the public route. I don't need to be dealing with gym bullies.

I have been to gyms with friends before. They're not all bad. I hate the crowded ones. Smaller type gyms are usually better, and more personal.

I love tai chi. Even in the poor state I'm in, I can do that, and it stretches more than one would think, and it clears the mind.

I have difficulty with yoga, physically and mentally. Mentally while I'm holding position I go off compiling grocery lists or reviewing which muscles are involved with which meridians, and I lose all focus. Oops

Wow, this new version of CF is going to take some getting used too.

Although I love the new notification system, I just miss the who's online status.
