• 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.

Now that Kavanaugh's confirmed...

I see the subject has changed... predictably so.

Perhaps a new thread on an old obsession is in order?

Nice diversion to keep from actually answering my question.

Even more defensive! Why not just answer the question?

Forum rules, as well as common courtesy, are that we address the post, not the poster. As difficult as this can sometimes be, and as inconvenient as it often is, let us keep this in mind and stay on topic.

Rest assured, if I wish for advice on my personal habits, I will solicit such information clearly and unambiguously.

The post is what I was addressing in each case. The post I was referring to was a diversion that didn't answer the question.
