  • 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

I'm ready for my backpack now...

It doesn't make you hate reading as much as it makes you hate reading academic works. I appreciate the rare times I can read for pleasure now because I have to read so much academic, er, stuff, not to mention work-related, uh, stuff too.

Hey! Hows your class going?

Awesome, I love it.

ANd since I'm going to learn, I find I'm very frustrated with the people who start packing up while the teacher is still talking but THEY think it's time to leave.

Bothers me because I'm willing to put in the work, not just expect a degree.

They still do that at that level? Aren't most people in your program generally people who've had 3+ years of work experience behind them already?
