  • 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.

Dancing anyone?

A throwback pic to my early dancing years. Haha, I loved Big Bird then and loved this costume even more because it reminded me of him. :D

This thread reminds me of a book I read

It was called Dancing through it: My journey in the ballet by Jennifer Ringer

Not sure if anyones heard of her but there was some controversy in the ballet world over ballerinas weights. Ballet is a very disciplined dance form and its really not for the faint hearted.
Also ms Ringer is a christian so its not like ballet and faith cannot mix as long as one doesnt put ones faith into ballet itself. It can be very easy to idolise since its so demanding of your time.

I did it for a while as an adult beginner, it wasnt easy for me! But I enjoyed it. I am in no way a natural though. You kind of have to learn it when young and supple.

A friend just Tweeted a throwback to a dance we were in and absolutely loved in 2010. It was a company dance, so all age groups were in it, which made it more special. It's a fun dance, so I'm sharing it even though the video quality is a bit poor, haha:
