  • 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 5'8" and i wouldn't kneecap my grandma. granted she's dead, but in the grand scheme of things, there will always be people taller than you.

to the originator of the post -
i'm very happy with my height and body weight (a whopping 120-130 range depending on time of year and stress level). i've found that insecurity hampers everyday life too much. get over it would be an obvious answer from me, i suppose, but no.

you shouldn't dwell only on your height. i'm sure if you look hard enough, you can find other faults you can dwell on that will take your mind off your height. i kid, i kid. (some of you are overly sensitive, apparently) it's in the genes. there's nothing you could have done to change your height. it was never in your control so why dwell on it? dwell more on your physique. that at least is in your control. if you can't grow "up", then grow "out."
