  • 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.

What do you look for in a girl/guy?

I Look for evidence that the person is truly a christian in how they live their lifes and not just in what they say actions speak louder than words and Ladies should be prayerful in their choice christian men are not always what they seem and may call themselves a christian but this may not show in their lifes or relationships with others.

I look for someone who seems like a good candidate for possibly marrying someday. I have a list of things I want in a future husband and when I come across a guy I'm interested in or who is interested in me I look at the things I want in a husband and if what I know about that guy is consistant with those things I consider dating him, but if he isn't those things I decide to wait for the guy God has set aside for me; that guy will meet all of those things I have in mind...even the ones I'm afraid to write down because they seem so unlikely in today's world.

I too have a list of characteristics that I would like the man that God has for me- to have himself. The one thing that I understand is that for me to fully appreciate these attributes in someone else I must possess them myself. So in looking for the one God has for you, you should also work on yourself.

I look for in a girl someone who has a sense of humor. Does not take herself too seriously all the time. She has to love to laugh. That is such a turn-on for me. Of course the #1 thing is that she is a Godly woman.

I`d look at the mans relationship with the Lord and wether he is humbled before God I am not keen on men who are full of self importance am looking for a man with less of self and more of Jesus if someone is too full of self theres not much room for Jesus. I look for evidence of fruits of the spirit as listed in the bible.

#1 She has to be a fellow believer, and open to what God has for her life.
#2 She has to have a good sense of humor, because I'm always joking around.
#3 She has to be willing to try new things because I love being active and would love to share that time with her.

Similar religious beliefs are key
Physical attractiveness plays a part
Intelligence is also big. I want to be able to have long winded discussions about all sorts of issues with her.
Must be culturally experienced, meaning she's willing to try (and perhaps already knowledgable in and enjoys) different movies, styles, foods, etc from different areas of the world.
Must be kind and generous with a big heart. Very unselfish.
With marriage I would think agreeing on how to raise or children is key.
Must share at least some similar interests.

My wife fits all these and is improving in many other ways every day, as am I and through that we're ever growing closer.
