• 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.

For those of you who support war

Who are the real terrorists?

-Ex soldier

This hits me hard as I have family who are Sikhs :(
Also when my parents lived in nj, (before 9/11) people called "dot busters" would harass Indian/middle eastern people to the point where no one would dare wear unamerican clothes.

Makes me :cry: we live close to Wisconsin, and my parents went to a temple last night, and it was super late and they still were not home. i called and no answer...but finally they came

I don't know if this will be any comfort to you, but on a radio interview I heard this morning with one of the Wisconsin Sikhs, the man said that their neighbors had accepted them into the community and that was why this came as such a shock.

I'm glad your family is ok.
