  • 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

It doesn't fly, it swims.



This is actually a member of a curious and rather bizarre animal life form called a siphonophore. It lies somewhere between a single organism and a colony of individual organisms. Perhaps the most well known siphonophore is the Portugese Man of War. The Netflix series 'Weird Wonders of the World' had a bit about them in Season 1 Episode 1. It caught my attention so I read more about them.

But can it fly? Inquiring minds want to know.

I did for lunch, and now I'm wondering if it is alive in my stomach.

In userxpat's stomach dead siphonophore waits dreaming.
