  • 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.

Let's talk about life.

Thank you~
I'll try my best.

I visited my new school/town/house about a week ago.. The very small town I live in is BEAUTIFUL-- lots of nice houses and it's on the ocean-- but surrounding the town are large industrialized cities.. I've only ever lived in spread out places surrounded by nature-- like the desert, the mountains, or forests--- dfojgsoj xD Ah, man.

Anyone live in an industrialized area that could give me some tips? x_x


That's tough. I used to be in a similar situation-- I was shy and always alone... But... what does keeping quiet accomplish?
Sometimes you just gotta give yourself a boost-- and accomplish what you want accomplished.

But, I hope all goes well-- and good luck. ^^

oh and Hi Fanof Jesus

Studying Forensic Pathology. Roughly I will be in school of some kind for nearly 10 years. I hope I am heading down the right career path-am a sensitive person.It's been something else the first year.

Hi!

Oh, wow. Well yeah, that is most certainly something "advanced". I hope too, wish you the best of luck with those studies, not the easiest path - but I bet it's interesting. You'll know almost everything about the human body after that! Wish you the best of luck


Where did you live in NJ meowmix? I may be able to give you some tips too. lol What kind of tips are you looking for?

Wait so you are moving to NJ? That's were I lived when I still was in US, now I'm back in Sweden, anyway that's cool! What town?

Just reserved tickets for The Dark Knight Rises in IMAX this coming weekend. Going to see a great movie and catch up with old friends. Can NOT wait!!

(Ironically, I'll actually be missing church service in order to see the movie BUT I'll be sure to spend some time in God's Word later in the day. If ever there was a movie worth skipping church for, it'd be THIS one lol)

Besides the tragic events in Denver I have only found this movie to have a great reputation and very good ratings. Seems like you'll have a good time with your friends - enjoy!

Agreed, that would definitely be that one movie - although when you think about it, it seems crazy to skip church for a movie. I mean we really should spend all time possible with God, but I guess we don't, and out of Jesus own experience in being human I think it's acceptable

I don't know why but I'm scared because I turn twenty this year. these are the last months of being a teenager forever!

Haha I know how you feel. I turn 20 one week from today. Pretty crazy... I came back on here and I see a bunch of people who are the same age I was when I first joined here. And man it makes me think how much I've changed! Moving on from those times of innocence and ignorance, lol. Part of it's scary, but part of it's exciting too! I think it kinda helps me that I already resigned to myself a while ago that I'm not a "kid" anymore, so the loss of "teen" from my age won't hurt as bad xD

Still, I've been a teenager/preteen for the last decade, and now that same distance will separate me from being 30 o.o
Crazy how time flies!

I've made some bonehead decisions and gone down paths that leave me scratching my head, but still have a world of stuff to learn. But I think I've turned out ok so far. So yeah our childhoods may be over but we still have some good times ahead of us, and life is what you make it. Make 20 your best ever.

Man, I haven't been on here in forever. And in seven days I'll be too old. So I had to come back and post first.. was kinda like I was meant to find your post *sighs* xD
