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.
Introvert or Extrovert?

Oddly enough, this poll shows fewer introverts than my MBTI compatibility chart data did.
I wonder if a few of the introverts in my chart voted for ambivert, that would explain it.

Im an introvert, but I force myself to be extroverted. Thats why I know that everyone that says they want to talk more etc.... but say they are introverted and "can't" is more about they "wont".
Its unpleasant to leave your comfort zone, but if you never leave your comfort zone..... you don't grow and change. You stagnate.

Yes it's just what your preferences are.
I remember when I was shy and extremely introverted and never said a word I got a Word from God that I wasn't always shy and had to minister to my friends and all of a sudden I didn't care anymore and just started to talk to strangers. They didn't recognize me lol.
I'm not gonna say that I am an introvert. I am a new creation.

My introversion just means I need time away from group situations in order to recharge my social battery. That I cannot change. As much fun as being with multiple people is, I find it emotionally exhausting. If I'm going to a social event, and I know it's going to be a long day of fun, my life has to be planned to allow enough recharge time. If I don't do that I end up feeling very haggard, because my brain has not had a chance to rest.
There are plenty of sociable introverts, who burst into the room bubbling with personality. They're just on a different end of the spectrum to someone who would much prefer to live out the rest of their days in their cave of books.
Being reserved and cantankerous is far more of an issue, but you can be a reserved, cantankerous old mare regardless of your intro/extroversion. Those are things I can work on. The way in which I recharge? Eh, not so much.

I like to interact with a group of people IRL but it sometimes is difficult if the connection with the group is not strong enough. Instead I'll just spend some time alone or online.
I'm an introvert but I still like to make contact with people so now and then.
