• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Saint Thérèse Of Lisieux..

I like her, she was a strong willed and adorably odd woman. She also seemed to find the beauty in suffering. She's most certainly someone that can inspire you to be religious.

I secretly live for the day someone stops me in the street, and asks if the handle MiniEmu means anything to me.

It's probably not in anybody's interest to stop in the streets of Brixton...

All you have to do is say hi to someone as you walk into the pub, and you get a glass in your face.

You know, the more jokes people make along those lines the more I start to think perhaps I'm a little naive when it comes to how safe I feel navigating the busy streets at night. So far so friendly. Brixton is failing to live up to its hostile reputation.

So long as people avoid stopping me in Thornton Heath, it's all good.

It's a picture of me painting in the art gallery at school. I wanted a picture of myself that showed a passion of mine, but wasn't identifiable so I could maintain privacy. I should update it since I've now graduated, but I just changed my user name (from Artemis) and thought it might help to keep this a bit longer so people will still know I'm the same user.

mine is the Vatican City flag

there were a lot of people on Facebook and CF who were putting up Rainbow flags or the Battle Flag of Virginia (the confederate flag)

and I did not particularly like either one of those flags, so I put up this one

Your skin looks flawless. It's a very nice picture.
