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.

A mutual interest in each other. We made each other laugh and smile. It's also wanting to bless and delight this person.
Respect.

Ironically my best friendships have started with me not wanting to talk to them. LOL
I tend to develop relationships slowly. I warm up slowly and get to know people slowly. I'm nice to them, but I don't interact very much, and gradually decide who is "safe" and compatible.
I saw a psychiatrist once who told me that when it comes to all kinds of relationships, like is a series of temporarily accepting people until you know them well enough to know if they are trustworthy and if you like them. Then you reject the ones who are not and keep the ones who are.
