• 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.

Are You Brave Enough to Post A Picture of Yourself?

5'11. Gaze upon it in envy.

But nah, It's probably the angle of the camera. Camera tricks can do wonders.

Yeah, looks like you have that Andre The Giant disease. Lol.

If I could I would dress like this every day.

Dang it, God, why did you make me an autistic Millennial instead of making me a neurotypical born in the Greatest Generation?

Yeah sucks that we're born into probably the most coddled and trashy generation man has yet seen.

In the past people couldn't get away with being as immature as our generation is. Beginning with the baby boomers it continued to get worse and worse. At least they had parents and grandparents who remembered when life was harder. Now we're getting multiple generations within the family who have had it easy. Life was brutal and rough, being a special snowflake wasn't really feasible.

Ingrates. Be thankful the Greatest Generation isn't around to have you sent to the salt mines or sacrificed as cannon fodder on the front lines for their peace and security. Society hasn't degenerated so much as it's been forced to be more kind. Now if only it could learn to stop whining about it.

Not saying this generation is all bad. We're perhaps more open minded (then again, a lot of open minded liberals from my experience are also hugely hypocritical and phony..)

I'd rather live through two conventional world wars and the Great Depression knowing that everything would turn out right in the end.

Can't say the same about my day. The world looks like it's on the verge of ecological, economical, social, and political collapse and our generation will not be able to handle it as well as my Great Grandparents did back in their day.

Hard to say. Would be interesting if a nuclear holocaust sent us back to the dark ages.

I think humans are pretty flexible. Even the whiny sjws on tumblr would probably turn rock hard real quick if they had no choice.

Srsly though, Rene Girard is a good read on the subject. It seems as if human societies have always had this problem/solution involving sacrificing humanity. He even ties it into his view of the atonement, with a christus victor slant, not that I agree with everything he says.

First thing to avoid creepers, avoid giving them any idea, nor hint that you look good!o_O

Rules out putting your picture on your avatar if you do look good.
Doesn't even matter if you look good, tbh, so long as you're female :p

(though my blurry underwater photo hasn't caused any backlash thus far)
