• 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.

Are you a philanthropist? Great, I got some kids over in India we have been trying to teach, but they need some food for their tummy. It is hard to teach students when they are hungry. Perhaps you would like to help us out. You could help buy them some food, so they can better concentrate on their studys. Or perhaps you would like to help us to buy a tiller, so they can produce more food than what they can produce scratching at the earth with hand tools.

Or, we need some blankets for the old people. It is winter over there and they get a bit cold at night. They live in a mud hut with a straw roof and it gets a bit drafty, of course they do not have central heating, the blanket is all they have to keep warm with. <B></B>

Why far away India? Do you know their middle class is larger then the entire population of North America? Teach what, Christianity? Some of the best computer programmers are from India. Some of the best doctors and engineers I know are from India also. In fact my most profitable engineering program was done with the help from a person from Sri Lanka and not the USA or Germany.

You wanna be sardonic fine. I been to India, so please don’t give me hut stories. I work and help those who need it right here in Toronto. Last night -14 deg C. Sorry to tell you but I handed out blankets right here until four in the morning. But some are&nbsp; left and could be shipped to India. I got two hundred. You take care of the shipping charges and I’ll release them to you.

Its probably just as well we don't have the technology to time travel otherwise we would be causing all sorts of havoc....if it were made possible in some future time it would have to be rigourously policed I suspect. Who knows, maybe people from the future are already among us and we just don't know it.

Even if it was under strict laws it would still be abused. If not by civilians than by the govenment.
