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 will always ask to hear what you have to say in regard to a particular decision if I realize or you tell me that you have some input. I will always respect your opinion, beliefs, knowledge, expertise, wisdom, and/or feelings on the matter. I will also always take into account your wants, needs and desires. I will always attempt to honor God in my decisions. After that, I will always attempt to honor you in my decisions. I will be willing to revisit decisions when circumstances change, when there is new information, when one of us becomes uneasy with the decision, or when enough time has passed that it's time to reassess and evaluate how well that decision is working out.

I was getting gas at the pump when an elderly lady and her grandson drove up next to me in her car. Her grandson hopped out to pump the gas for her, and noticed that the pump was on the left side of the car, but the gas door was on the right. When he told her, she started the car back up, made a U-turn, and drove to the OTHER side of the pump, leaving her in the same situation she started with. When her grandson told her this, she started yelling at him, saying, "You said it was on the wrong side LAST time! Make up your mind!"

A friend moved to Albuquerque and his wife kept complaining about finding her way around the town. He told her to spot the Sandia Mountains and she'd know that would be east. She said, "That's fine, but where are the other directions?"
..................................
So my wife is trying to fax something to the Virginia Dept of Employment regarding an unemployment claim by a previous employee. She tries the fax over and over again, day and night. No luck. She calls to check to see if the fax number is wrong. The woman at the Dept of Employment who answered the phone asks "Is there paper in your fax? Our fax will not answer unless there is paper in your fax?" My wife questions her on that, and the woman insists that their fax "knows" if there is paper in the other fax. Needless to say, that was not the problem.

Fen had been just as reluctant to leave Feng Lei's side, but other than the discreet contact that she had enjoyed beneath the table, it was clear that they would not be allowed to enjoy each other's company in such a public setting. Therefore when Mei dipped her head to whisper softly within her ear, she had accepted the request to retire with no complaint. She was pleased when Jiao Da suggested that the young spearman escort them back to their room, offering the leader of their small party a grateful smile before turning and following the Princess as they weaved their way through the restaurant.
"Goodnight Feng Lei, i hope you have a restful night." Mei shared a short glance with her dear friend before moving into the chamber and leaving the two to share a brief moment and bid each other goodnight. Fen lingered in the doorway, drawing the door over slightly before looking out at her dear Feng, "Goodnight..." she whispered softly in response, a small smile upon her lips, seeming reluctant to draw the door closed and turn in for the night. Eventually, it was necessary and she pulled the screen across before moving to aid her Mistress in preparation for the night.
Both women rested well that night, recovering from the long journey and both making the most of the comfortable and luxurious surroundings, temporarily dismissing the worries and fears that had pursued them since they had left the capital. When morning came, both felt refreshed and eager to rise to the day, though their conversation centered upon the romance that was forming between Fen and the young spearman. To the young serving girl's delight, Mei informed her that she had a plan that would allow the two youngsters to spend some time together, and with this decided the two made their way downstairs.
However, it was only Mei who walked through the doorway, her garments more practical for a full day's wear (it appeared that Nangong had been most generous in his provision of clothing and every other comfort), her hair tied back in a simpler style than the previous night. She bowed politely in greeting to the men that sat around the table, gesturing for them to remain where they sat. "Good morning Gentlemen, i hope you all slept well." The young woman, carefully lowered herself into a chair, positioned (rather conveniently) between Jiao Da and Lord Nangong.
Clearly, Fen's absence was concerning some of the men, Feng Lei most importantly who had not yet taken his eyes from her. Not wishing to further his pain, Mei turned her head and smiled at the young man, "Feng Lei, i believe Fen requires your assistance. Would you go to her aid please?" This request was followed by a subtle smile sent in Jiao's direction, assuring him that all was well. It appeared this reassurance was enough for the him to permit the young man to leave the table, though he gestured him closers and issued hushed words into his ear before slipping something into his hand.
Feng Lei would only have to step out of the dining room in order to see Fen, waiting anxiously just inside the main entrance, hands clasped in front of her. As he approached, her head raised and a bright smile swept across her lips as she stretched out her hand, drawing him out into the quiet streets. "My Lady told me that she did not wish to see me all day!" she explained, barely able to contain her excitement as she drew Feng close, entwining her fingers with his.
