• 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.

Here's a New Game:
It's called "NEOLOGISMS" or "New Words."

The rules are simple. You create a new word and simply explain it (as in a dictionary) and put it in a sentence if you can.

Here are two for starters:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------​

antisplashalism - (n) the belief that people who splash you in the pool are bound for Hades.​

"The lifeguard was not so concerned about the safety of the children in the pool as he was for their souls for he was a strict antisplashalist."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------​

deschatology (n) The branch of theology that is concerned with the size of the clergyperson's desk (especially in relationship to his or her type of computer).

Deschatologists try to make a seperate place on each desk for Bibles, Catechisms and Teddy Bears.
(Note: Our minister has small collection of teddy bears in her office).

This word was made up on the Cosby Show, but since it needs to become official:

Zrbtt: "zur'-bitt" (v.) To playfully kiss or tickle someone by blowing air hard against their skin with an open mouth, making a rumbling, bubbly sound and sensation.
syn. raspberries, blowing raspberries...

Fadiggle - 1. The name for any offensive smells ommited from various animals
2. Richard Nixon's Dog's 3rd puppie's name.

1. The governemnt experimented with encapsulating fadiggle and using it much like tear gas.

2. Richard and Faddigle were both kicked out of the White House the same day.
