  • 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.

Does anyone feel like me and dating wears you out? Especially if your dating history is like mine and you have never had a serious relationship-just weird, meaningless dates! I dated a guy at church 2 months and then he started being verbally abusive so I cut it off. He knew I wanted marriage because when I went to the singles class (he is the teacher) in June I said I was looking for a bigger singles dept. to possibly find a mate. Yet, he went out with me for two months anyway-he knew I was looking for marriage and he wasn't! That was cruel and a waste of my time/emotions/money (will never give a guy money again)! Even in churches people play games. I am 50 never married. I read on another thread here someone said dating is stressful because of how sinful people are. Amen to that! I am not giving up but am not necessarily doing what I did last time with church guy and pursue someone just because they are good looking-I want to find out about their character/reputation first. Any thoughts?:confused:
