  • 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.

Hello, everyone.

I am new to your site (obviously, since I'm in the "introductions" area, right? :)). I am 43, married, a doctor, 3 kids, and I have a good life. BUT, one thing that IS missing is people who've travelled this part of life and are ahead of me from whom I might get warnings or advice. I always had that when I was a teen and college student, but now as a doctor, *I'm* usually that person to others. It's easy from my vantage point of 43 to see that I KNOW things that teenagers don't and that they could benefit from. By the same token, I feel positive that my perspective on the things that lie ahead of me is very limited, and I would greatly appreciate the friendship of any of you who feel you have experiences that might help me.

Thank you in advance for any who respond.

Sincerely,


David
