• 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.

  • 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

Should your spouse be your 'protector'

I read those books, but we threw them across the room... I think they were very 'squewiff' about saying that those things were God's 'design' for every human in the world.

I know for me, that the '3 things every woman desires' were REEAAAAAALLLY off-base.

I believe husbands and wives are to protect each other.

I, for example, protect my husband from spiders and his sister, among other things.

My husband protects me, often from myself, often from his family and I do not doubt that he would attempt to protect me in a physical situation if he could.

But trust me, the service I render him, with regards to his sister, takes as much strength and bravery as any physical protection does!

Squewiff...I need to learn how to use that properly in a sentence.

ok then, you saw those. Hey, what can you do? The only book I know that's designed to work for everyone is the bible, right?
