• 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.

  • 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.

Any moderate Anabaptists here?

Are there any Amish here? I don't supposed that many, if any, would use the internet. But I attended the U. of Iowa years ago which is right next to an Amish settlement and I loved wandering through the quiet immaculate areas and fields around the Amish homes. I admire their lifestyle. :)

I would highly doubt that you would find ANY Amish here for a couple of reasons that I can think of. (1) Computers - While some use computers in their businesses they would not be connected with the internet (need a phone line for that and they do not believe in phones in their homes) (2) They are required to be seperate from the world as much as possible - the internet is probably the exact opposite of seperation <g>.

Have a nice week-end.
