• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

woop, slow poster rock!!

My beautiful Christian daughter was about 15 and having jaw surgery. We all were nervous -- but she covers nervousness up delightfully with a smart-aleck mouth. She'd been in pre-op way too long for comfort; finally, the techs came in and pulled out arm-rest boards from the bed, attaching her IVs and cords on them. She looked like a giant t. Then they left, and we kind of stared awkwardly at each other.

Then these big silent Navy techs rushed in and whisked her away before I could even get out of my chair. From down the hall I hear -- you got it --

"Look on . . . the brighter side of life (whistle, whistle, whistle)!"

Those Navy meds don't have a great sense of humor or they didn't see Life of Brian -- but I about fell over laughing.

I have a question. What are idiots-- er? Do they come in male and female? Are they human or some other species? Can you keep them as pets?
