• 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.

Think I'll sit down here for a bit... (2)

They don't realize that God gives many different types of gifts and that the medical field is filled with gifted people. Jesus didn't knock doctors, so why do they? :scratch:
Isn't Luke considered to have been a doctor? Thanks for the reminder.

So there should be no Christian doctors, I guess :doh:
Funny, I've always felt that God led me to two of the doctors that I have. I look at that as a miracle!

WOW! it is a very moving story!!!
It is. Are you going to read "The Lost Boy" and "A Man Named Dave"? They are kind of the rest of the story books.

She lists herself as Nondenominational. If she was a follower of Mary Bake Eddy, she would be kicked off of that site.

I can say without a doubt that if it were not for my family doctor, I would not be here today. Oh, and my doctor is a Christian.

Goodness, I go away for a couple of days and BLAST things start blowing up again. :(

Rev and SeaJoy, I'll be missing both of you! I learn so much from the both of you (actually, everyone here in the conservative forum!) that it'll be a sad time indeed 'till y'all come back.

*hugs*
