• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

My Second Questions Thread

Nice :)

If you were given a seat on the next space shuttle for free to any place in outer space, would you go? Why or why not?

Heck yes! I love astronomy. To me, Earth just the "icing on the cake" of God's glory; His stamp that says "YHWH was/is/always will be Here."

What kind of music/movies do you like?

I like all types of movies. The ones that I enjoy the most are written with realism, filmed with creativity, and acted with precision. They define the line between "creative" and "crap I threw together and called creative."

Why do you think you are single?

There's an old flick called Not Quite Human. In a sense, I feel that God is still making me "human," in the sense that He is offering me a chance to discover myself before I am given the chance to discover my Beloved.

How do you deal with loneliness?

I harbor the hope that the longer I wait, the sweeter being with my Beloved will be. The more patiently I endure the pain, the more the Lord will bless our relationship.

Do you play any musical instruments?

Nein.

Do you write music or poetry?

If so, care to share some with us?

It's not happy poetry, but here it is:

My Own Prison - written in a time of despair
I find myself in this young tomb
Trapped without a light.
Bound by chains of self-regret
And giving up the fight.

Each lie that's writ in putrid scars
Decays the life held deep.
And as the world continues on
Makes for elusive sleep.

The dreams that once flew unrestrained
Now fall with broken wings.
And sirens now who have stood calm
Will never ever sing.

I pinch my flesh to wake my mind
And scream to wake my dead.
But no effect is my reward
'Cause all have gone and fled.

My wounds will bleed fresh every day
From thorns that now are old.
And thoughts of one I'll never see
Are far too God-damned bold.

I reap the worth of my regrets
And hear the angels weep.
They ask me why I choose to stay;
"I've promises to keep."

These miles gone with bitter steps
Have made this angel sin.
And I'll be damned for all my doubt
To never live again.

I pluck the petals of a rose
"She loves me, nevermore."
And yet I wish to God on High,
To open up the door.

Open up the perfect door,
For life's true happiness.
Until that day I sit in doubt,
A bleeding, jaded mess.

I know the place I'm in right now
Is not where I should be.
But God forbid the place I'm in:
The human that is me.

The word "damn" is used literally, not as a swear word.

Ever thought about putting some of that stuff to music?

I write lyrics for metal songs. I'm not good at writing lyrics for other genres.
whats the difference between lyrics for metal songs and other genres? I never knew there were requirements or prereqs. I always figured music is what you make it.
