  • 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.

Trouble Sleeping

I have a sleep disorder, so this doesn't really apply to me. But -
some of the advice given to me over the years........
- don't eat a lot of food before going to sleep.
- hot baths, showers can help you relax.
- not too much sugar a couple of hours before bedtime
- hot milk with perhaps a bit of honey
- camomile tea
- hot ginger tea (chop up some fresh ginger and put in boiling water) add sweetner if needed.
- try to erase your mind of the different things that have been worrying you or taking your attention, causing you stress.
- relaxing music
- regular sleeping habits
- prayer for a good nights sleep

the last is the most important.
(ask God to protect you, give you good dreams etc and pray that for others as well.)


* regular exercise is also good
