  • 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

You're right, sweet sister! :hug:

I do miss you all, terribly.

There are a few reasons for my absence:

Some of you may know that I had a viral infection in my eyes that wouldn't quit. It was a severe trauma to both eyes. This triggered the onset of cataracts. I recently had surgeries on both and my eyes are recuperating.

There are other reasons as well. I do hope to visit OBOB once in a while but I don't think I will visit often. I do love you all but OBOB just isn't what it used to be. We spent years creating OBOB as an independent and truly Catholic place and then suddenly, in a flash, it was gone. :cry: Does CPR still exist? I guess not.

With all my Love and Prayers,

M.

:hug::hug::hug:

You are missed.

You and many of the others served here diligently. You are correct, it's not the same...but with prayer....I believe in spiritual CPR....even for a messageboard.:)

I will continue in prayer for your healing and I do hope for more opportunities to see you around here. You are a true blessing!!

You left just as I was joining as I recall. You missed a real battle after that. Nice to see you post!

Prayers for the healing.

So happy to see your post. Well, at least you know that you are fondly though of. Please drop by once in awhile when you are able.

May God bless you always and may Our Lady cover you with her mantle of protection and hold you in the crossing of her arms.

Miss you all, Maggie, Joab, David (kiss that baby for me!), AMDG, Islanders. EG, isshinwhat, Irenaeus, WA and poppins.

I have a serious aol problem. That's why emails aren't getting thru. I am just starting to resolve my computer problems. The stitches in my eyes are still in the process of disolving and I still can't see very well.

Thanks to you all for your prayers.

Loveya

God bless you, Michelina. Thanks for posting.

I hope your eyes heal. I have double vision so I know how difficult it is with blurry vision.

Let us pray for each other. I have missed our spiritual dialogues. Those were good times.

:hug: :hug: :hug: NewMan99 will send ya a pm Michelina.

Michelina,

I have missed you soooo much. You are right, the OBOB has gone through so much and it may not be what it once was, but maybe, with you and Bob and Davidnic and Maggie and some others here... maybe we can rebuild the OBOB to make it even stronger.

My heart weeps with great joy to read your words here and thank you for being here.

You have been in my prayers and thoughts for a long time.

God's peace,

Debbie
