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.

We hope the site problems here are now solved, however,
if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

This is probably gonna stamp a big 'ol "L" on my forehead, 
But I don't know any of you anyway, so no biggie. I was listening to the radio and the eharmony.com commercial was on and Dr. Neil Clark Warren was pitching a free personal profile valued at 40 bucks. OK, That night I was getting a little tired of Civ 3 and I decided to check it out.
OK, you answer a ton of stuff and they kick you back this profile...it seemed pretty accurate given what I know about me. (which is quite a bit since I've been living with me for a while)...so I'm reading all this stuff about me and I'm like...hey that sounds like someone I can get along with...lets see if there's a female me out there...So I break out the plastic and give it a go.
Well, to make a long story longer, OK, so they give you this list of women that they say I'm compatable (you can set th search criteria. -location, age, race, religion, etc) with so I decide to start communication. They say to communicate with all your matches, so I did...
There are actually 4 different stages they make you go through and you can give someone the boot at any time. There is a sharing of basic info, a close-ended round of questions, Must haves/can't stands, open ended questions, and fnially open communication (eharmony email or real email if you prefer)...
I also share two pictures right away(one is in the CF picture topic) cuz if someone thinks I'm ugly or whatever than she can move on, but you don't have to post a picture at all, which actually has kept me talking to one person... I got no idea what she looks like, but she seems cool...
Ok, I don't have any illusions about finding a wife on-line but in all this interaction I have done quite a bit of self reflection. You really gotta think about what's important and whats not for you. I think more than anything that has helped me to see what I want in a relationship.
Anyway, I've met some interesting people, and I've met some , er, interesting people. All-in-all it's been fun but an on-line service can't take the place of praying for God's will to be done in your life. It can, however help you figure out what you are looking for.
If you want to ask further questions or want to crack on me, PM me...
I'm OUT!

I guess I'm just too old for all this sort of thing. I'm divorced (my exhusband commited adultery with my live in childcare) have two children and am by myself.
I'd like to meet a christian for a relationship, but most christians don't want to have anything to do with dating a divorcee regardless of why I'm divorced. And when I do find someone to date, do I go back to square 1 and only hold hands before marriage. And is remarriage an option anyway?

HEY EVERYONE.... umm I just got out of a really tough relationship... AND ITS THE BEST THING... it gives me so much time with Christ... and the thing is you should not be out there looking because for some reason when you do ... they aren't there.... =/ .... So whenever you feel like hanging out with someone OPEN YOUR BIBLE... or listening to some Third Day or Mercy ME.... I Was always scared of being alone ... so I was always on the prowl... but now If God does not have anyone in the future for me that is ok... He knows best... I will Just Adopt 10 Kids.... =).... I guess what I am saying is just put into his hands and Pray for HIS will to be done not "Give me A Woman with a kind heart"... Like i use to do... Im such a loser =) HAHA... hope this helps....

Why not at church? If you are looking for a christian who shares in the same beliefs than you do, church is a good start. going to other churches are good too, but why are you looking? God has someone for you if you trust he does. Pray to him, look to him, and wait for him to give you that opportunity to meet someone. Why go to church to find someone? Being involved in activities you enjoy can also help you find someone with the same interests as you. just keep looking to god and he will find that person for you.
