  • 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

This thread is in high demand...

are you ready to die?
I often think about this, some might think its morbid and maybe it is. Sometimes the fragility of life frightens me and I feel like I want to cling onto life but other times I feel weary of this world and just want to leave it.

where would you most like to live?
Great question but my answer to it always changes :D. At the moment I would "seem" ideal to move to the US, I put "seem" because I have never actually visited the US so I may not actually end up liking it. Other places that I have considered include Canada, Sweden, and Finland.

what are 3 incidents from your childhood that influenced where you are now?
Thats rather intrusive :p but I did want people to ask me questions. ^_^

1.) My bi-polar mum used to binge drink and ended up trying to commit suicide several times, that made mature quicker but I think it also gave me some issues. From the age of 12 I had to be the "sensible one", I took care of the cleaning and sometimes did the cooking because my mum was too depressed to do those things. Thankfully, she has made a massive improvement. :).

2.) Being bullied at Primary and Secondary school has made me distrust certain people.

I can't think of another one.

who is your favorite cfer?
I don't think that I have one even though I do talk to certain people more than I talk to others.

have you ever made pancakes from waffle batter?
No, have you?

if you could send the whole world one message, what would it be? why?
Dear world,
Even though there may not seem to be much hope, don't become despondent and always try even if there is a chance of failure. If we all work together and respect one another we can achieve so much. Love one another as you love yourself because without love there is no hope.

Becky

My reason for writing that is that everyone needs hope, those who give up have a 0% chance of success but those who try only have 50% chance.

i dont think its morbid...death is as natural to ponder as life.

dont move to the US, go somewhere with universal healthcare.

well, i intend to bring about an intimate knowledge of someone, id be unhappy to be asked only superficial questions. your answers were good, by the way.
No, have you?
yep, and waffles from pancake batter. the latter was far less tasty than the former.

my message would probably be similar.

more questions!

:clap:^_^

By living can I include those who are living in Heaven? :p

If so then Mother Theresa. :)

If not then I am not sure.

who are you most intimately connected to outside of your family?

My closest friend who I wouldn't have been best friends with if it weren't for the fact that our group of friends didn't drift away from us. I guess there is a silver lining in every cloud (yeah....cheesy lol). I think we understand each other a lot and we seem to be similar in some respects, people even ask us if we are sisters. ^_^


if you started a charity, what would your mission statement be?

"Our aim is to provide for the needs of all of those on the streets who come to us for help and to set them on a path of rehabilitation".

sky diving or bungee jumping?

Hmm, interesting question. Sky diving even though I used to want to go bungee jumping.

what movie do you feel best represents how you feel about life currently?

A few months ago it was Donnie Darko (don't ask :p). ^_^

Now, it might be a movie where the girl with the troubled childhood is sorting out her life. :) I feel like this year is going to be a good one and I am learning a lot about myself.

hot weather or cold weather?

I am not sure anymore. Used to be cold weather but now my joints become painful when its cold so I would probably choose hot weather.

how did you come to know jesus?

I first noticed Jesus and found interest in him when I was 16, things were bad at home and me and I was worried about my mum for some reason so I was feeling helpless and weary. Me and my Dad were in the car on the way to McDonalds and he started talking to me about one of his passengers (he is a taxi driver) who told him that the only way to God is through Jesus. It entered my mind that Jesus might help me with my situation so I later prayed to him and asked him to bring me to God, ever since then I have been on a journey! :D
