  • 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.

There was once a magician on a cruise ship who performed mainly sleight of hand tricks. He had a regular spot on the ship's cabaret evening entertainment. He was actually quite a good magician, but his routines were regularly ruined by the onboard parrot who would fly around squawking out and giving away his secrets like: "IT'S UP HIS SLEEVE, IT'S UP HIS SLEEVE!"

The magician was getting pretty sick of this and threatened to kill the parrot if it ruined his act one more time. That evening right at the climax of his act, just as he was about to disappear in a puff of smoke, the ship hit an iceberg and sank in seconds.

The magician woke to find himself lying on a piece of driftwood in a daze. As he opened his eyes he could see the parrot staring at him out of its beady little eye.

The parrot sat there for hours just staring at him and eventually said, "OK, I give up, what did you do with the ship?"

haven't heard that one for a while ........... thanks DailyBlessings !!! :D

I'd like to dedicate thread #21 to yella. We will miss you Chris, but will take comfort in knowing that you are in a better place. :) :hug:
I joined this thread just a couple weeks ago, and I can't remember if I ever read any posts from Yella.
Today I've been reading how much you are missing him.

Can, please, someone of you write a kind of profile of Chris?
This would give me and others like me the occasion to appreciate this child of God who has gone to be in His presence. Thank you!:)

I'm okay Matt...just a little sad about Chris. :(

I am sad also. Thank You Lord that Chris is in a better place now.

How about since we are dedicating the 21st thread to yella lets make it a party thread. Yella would have wanted something fun like that. We should all have cake and ballons water or the ones with air in them. Make it a fun a very up beat thread like it used to be. Yella would want it that way.

His blog is gone but it was great, so fun and upbeat!

Go to this memorial thread and read the posts. You'll get a bit of an idea of what a fun person yella was.
