• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Heh heh.

Well of course my mother isn't happy with this conversion.

Personally I think she's in denial when I'm anything but a Methodist.

She completely denied that I was agnostic when I was agnostic. Every single time...

She doesn't want me to convert using the excuse that "you need to get involved."

Well.. I'm going to get much more involved I suppose. She says to wait a year....

Right... If I wait that long I'll be at college. And she isn't stopping me and college so... yeah...

:)

You know, I'd be much more [font=&quot]enthusiastic about this if it didn't sound like you were doing to hack off your parents.

Strange, it didn't come over to me that way at all. *ss* Seemed more like trying to keep a positive attitude about something.
And Dark/Lite... you'll get involved. *G* Catholic church thrives on people who are involved! Congratulations on your path Home. As to your mother being in denial, it's a natural reaction. Once you've been a catholic for a few decades... she'll understand this isn't a passing whim ;)
