• 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

Alrighty peeps! Here's the dealio...I have a Persuasive Speech to give this Wednesday, and as you can probably sense...I'm not ready. In fact, I haven't even picked a topic yet. So, if you all want to throw some ideas at me, that would be superb. If I pick yours, I'll give you 25 blessings! :) I don't want anything political, but I want it to be interesting and not snore-worthy. So, if anyone sees this before Tuesday afternoon, give it your best shot! I may not pick any...but just to see if any of you have a great idea! Thanks all!

What's the speech for?
Here's a couple ideas anyway, good luck.

- Abstinence
- Meditation, walk your audience through a guided meditation to convince them to meditate on a regular basis
- Exercise, you can give statistics as to why someone should exercise and demonstrate or even have your audience participate
- Vegetarianism, hand out samples of vegan food
- Why someone should go to Disney world, watch your favorite movie or play a game you enjoy

hmm...it's probably too late for ideas but I'll throw a few at ya anyways.

-Why children should be limited on how much television they watch
-persuade someone to listen to country music
-giving to charity
-keeping journals (it's good for your mind, and your grandchildren/children will appreciate reading them after your gone)

That's all I can think of right now. When I took speech I did a speech on racism and tried to persuade the audience to be more open minded and not have racist views. I think I got a B+....don't remember.
