  • 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

Hi there-

I'm looking for a Christian forum.
I'm retired, but keep busy, working with wood
Wife and I have lived in the mountain cabin we built for the last five years, but have recently bought a place in town
I belong to a few non-Christian forums, and finding them not so inspiring.

I gotta say, the format here is a bit inundating, but I'll forage a bit to find my way around.

Heh, I immediately put in some wrong info regarding my faith, and have yet to discover how to fix that (something involving a 'ticket', it seems)

Then I recvd a msg in my inbox from some sort of admin guy, but can't find a way to reply

So, seems it'll be a bit before I can contribute

However, I will peck away, see what transpires

Y'all keep the fire

We live by lake Erie and lake Ontario so we get a lot of snow sometimes as well. Just yesterday this happened all around us but we only got a couple of inches ourselves. That's lake effect, dropping feet in one place, and giving a dusting elsewhere often less than a mile apart.

Also I love those pictures, thank you.

Retiring to a mountain cabin with the love of your life sounds about as good as it gets
Oh, it was, it surely was.
I hope to find a way to write about it in a thread here, jus' gotta find the right forum.

Hello Gary O',
welcome to CF.
Thank you, Deade

Seems a nice place, a very nice place
A bit of a refuge from the typical websites of the world

Funny, the first thing I saw when foraging this site was NO GOADING!

Thought it to be oddly humorous.......for a Christian site

Not a biblical quote, a beatitude, or hymn.....

No worries

I'm not very good at goading

I do, however, like a good fist fight from time to time
(jus' kiddin'.....sorta)
