  • 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.

Join a church you feel comfortable with and become hands on in helping.

I am beyond frustrated right now. I have so much anger inside of me, and I had been wondering why. I had a talk with my parents about some stuff that has been going on with me, and I finally realized it is from not standing up for myself and allowing people to walk all over me. I always try to be nice and kind to people in my family(this situation applies to my family members), but yet people treat me like trash and take advantage of my kindness. I always try to be nice, and up until recently, I had tried to not say anything that would offend anyone, but I should not have to shield what I have to say if it is the trust.I have always been the middle man, and tried to fix conflict, but I cannot do it anymore. I am just so tired, and I really want to know how should I go about standing up for myself appropriately.

I struggle with this as well. It is incredibly frustrating when it is family belittling you including your parents and they treat you with complete disrespect and you have to act all nice because it will look bad on your parents. Ive been a big people pleaser all of my life but be encouraged. From these situations you will learn how much you need God's help.its not about telling people of but standing up for who you are in Christ. If Christ left us an example then surely He can help us to overcome the fear of man/fear of rejection, you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.
