  • 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

My mom just called me, she works in the emergency room in our hometown. One of my little brother's classmates was killed this evening. He was riding a mini-bike while going door to door for a school fundraiser when he was struck by a car. He was 12 years old. One of his older brothers is friends with one of my other brothers. Please pray for this little boy's family, and friends while they deal with this hard event.

I know what you mean ukok. My mom said that when this boys brother came into the hospital and heard that his brother had died he collapsed right there and had to be admitted himself. I don't know if I could survive if something like that happened to one of my little brothers, or my sister for that matter, I think my heart would just stop beating.

A friend lost her 5-yr old in a similar way. As a parent, I find this kind of tragedy unbearable. :prayer: for a sense of meaning. Maybe there isn't.

Thanks everyone for your prayers, I found out yesterday that there was another boy on the bike with him, the little brother of a friend of mine. He is in Intensive care still, and probably will never walk again. Please pray for his family as well. :pray:
