  • 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

One of the keys to a happy relationship is not to have a long list of things you do want in a partner. Instead, you should have a short list of things that you absolutely do NOT want, any one of which is a deal breaker. My list?

* Not a non-believer
* Not a smoker
* Not someone with a history of emotional/psychological problems
* Not someone who doesn't want children
* Not someone with sharply clashing political views

Being human is a major deal breaker for me. Personally, I'm holding out for when the sex robots hit the market.
:ahah:Actually, you don't have to wait for sex robots. ( They have those blow up dolls )

Yeah, but I don't want anything that can spring a leak or requires an air compressor. This is more what I had in mind:

Just a little something that's pleasant to look at, capable of interaction, and being a terminator that is capable of killing all my enemies. Not asking for a lot here. Though sadly this isn't the first time I've been jealous of a Glock 17.

Conservative, neo-liberal, anti-feminist without any real understanding or grounding in feminism. Just anti-feminist because they've heard from Rush Limbaugh that they're all feminazis. I don't mind a little bit of kidding around ('Are you angry?') but anything beyond that and I'm out the door.

Short. If you're under 5'7", I'm not interested.

And the two litmus tests: if they have no idea who Rock Hudson is (which, I didn't think possible...) or understand the comment that 'Vladimir Putin really looks like Daniel Craig/Blond Bond'; it's over.

Those are the main ones...any more are just little things.

I like to add that his funny bone is missing. Or lost.

Gets offended easily.

Cheap. Don't need to spend money on me, don't need to show me your goods and what not, I don't care. But, don't be cheap. Don't count how much food you ate and how much I ate, either.

It offends me that you wouldn't want me to tabulate the bill down to the cent for exactly what we both ordered.

I'll pay. Just don't add and subtract in front of me. Unless, you are in a classroom and calculating deadweight loss.

  • Thinks 9/11 was an inside job (OK, that's random, but just thought I'd throw that in there)

Not random at all. Crazy people should also be added to my list, along with racists.

*smile* Can you lend me some marbles? I seem to be in short supply.

I definately believe 911 was an inside job. But it wouldn't be a dealbreaker if someone believed the government's and news media's fairy tale. I'd tend to think they hadn't given alot of thought to researching the subject or are otherwise afraid of thinking critically or without reference to the percieved herd out of fear or pride(esp if they live in America)...but it wouldn't be a deal breaker.

All that would be required is that they refrain from attacking me over it, or otherwise parrot the idiot box's commentators when they do so by making hateful comparisons like you have done (Dark_Lite MOD).

I'm not sure I understand what you deal-breaker is.

List.

I like lists.

Thanks.

The deal breaker in the text of mine you quoted is that I am ostrisized or compared to *bigots*, *racists*, *crazy people* or other person generally hated because I have this particular belief. I've read numerous books and watched many documentaries on the subject. Haters generally (though not all) tend to be media sheep and super nationalistic.

I also stated it wouldn't bother me if someone did believe the official story, just as long as they don't get all O'Reilly on me, or otherwise participate in collective group hate.

Maybe too much to ask? Meh.
