• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

my philosophy as to why this guy is so crazily stupid!

At second 9 into the video, you can see people on top of the cliff. The man seems to not to be afraid of the wave but runs back to meet it. Why does he seem so unafraid of the wave? Why does he seem so joyful? My philosophy is this. He was experiencing the joy the devil was feeling watching the man be stupid. In other words the devil's joy of watching the man be stupid was what the man was feeling on top of the cliff.

I can't tell that he's joyful or stupid. Maybe that other person was his girlfriend saying "oh honey I lost my earring back there". Maybe he remembered he'd left behind a partially eaten eggamurffin.

Humans have this ego drive that says, "since I walked all this way
I should get hit by a wave and almost die so I can justify my decision
to come out in a hurricane"

There is a natural tendency on the part of some people, usually young males, to be daredevils or adventurers. Perhaps they get off on the adrenalin rush. Nothing to do with imaginary spiritual creatures.

It doesn't really look all that dangerous in the first place.
