  • 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

I've never watched it. Is it any good? Can't you eat the stuff they use to "grow" a chia pet?
It has some good segments on it. A lot of acts of kindness and charitable works. As far as what grows on a chia pet, no idea if the sprouts are edible or not. I never had one.

They are! :)

"Chia means “strength” in the Mayan language, and they were known as “runners food” because Aztec, Mayan, and Incan runners and warriors would use them as fuel to give them energy, stamina, and endurance while running long distances or during battle."

I eat Chia seeds for the health benefits. I put a spoonful in a glass of water then stir fast and down it. Tricky little things though.. can't let them sit in water for long or they get a gel around them. And if you let it sit till it dries out.. best of luck getting the glass clean lol. Its kind of like glue.
