  • 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

The five trait system of Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Openness, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism is considered more scientific than the Myers Briggs and other theories. But I think they are more similar than first appears. Extraversion is obvious, Openness is quite similar to Perceiving, Conscientiousness to Judging, and high scores in Agreeableness and Neuroticism both are similar to Feeling.

Here's an overview of the 5 traits. What Are the Big 5 Personality Traits?

I'm skeptical of claims about some theories being more scientific than others; personality is too complex to be more than generalizations whether you use scientific surveys or not.

I think Biblical examples are more reliable.

For example;

Abraham ------Generous.

Isaac ----------Strict.

Jacob ----------Harmonious.

All depending on the soul, not all souls are alike.

Our story starts from day one,

If we think in terms of all souls being different and instead of placing each in a certain category,

We think of the book we are writing has diffent coloured pages,

so a kind soul may have blue pages in their book

and a strict soul may have red for example.

At the judgement these things will be taken into consideration.

Which would be fair and just,


If a kind soul is generous and charitable, what is so remarkable
about that?

If a strict soul makes an effort and does a kind deed, would that not be a greater merit?

It is so I try to think anyhow.

While I enjoy various quizzes like these, I find the descriptions that go along with about any label they've created start to sound a lot like horoscopes. That is, you can find something true about yourself in just about every page. Even if it's only half of them, that's horoscope-y.

I believe in what goes around comes around.

I also believe in the reincarnation of the soul,
not for all by a long shot.

Though I do not intend to push it here.

But there are certain cases where it is uncanny (new word for me)
got it from this vid article.

It is only 8 minutes,

I was doubtful about posting it, but then it is history after all..

I scored low on Neuroticism, high on the rest. Also although I'm somewhat of an extrovert I don't gain energy from being around other people (they usually tire me out).
