  • 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.

LOL! "doulos" is my hotmail and aol username. "Throwingbones" comes from one of my "old" favorite movies. "Idle Hands" where the main character can't control one of his hands and he picks up his cat "Bones" and throws him out the window. Get it?
You are telling this to a CAT LOVER in case you had not noticed. :p

I figured and verified it in your profile what "doulos" was BUT much more interested in "throwingbones" before you told me.

Thanks for sharing. :)

So what led you to choose that handle?


I wanted a name of a female human character from "The Tale of Despereaux." There were two options - either Princess Pea or Miggery Sow - and I'm not quite THAT klutzy. :)

How is Keil pronounced, by the way?

Well, my real name is Scott. My dad used to call me "Ga" when I was younger because this little kid that I used to play with, who was still learning how to pronounce words properly at the time, called me that. Over the years, that sort of evolved into "Ska", and more specifically, "Skaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" for when he'd call for me when I was at home. My friends in middle school found it amusing that my dad called me that, so they started calling me that as well, and from there it sort of turned into "Skaaat". Actually, originally I used "Skaat" for my online sn's, but I decided "Skaaat" with 3 a's looked better.

Keil is the German pronounciation - rhymes with 'mile'. As a double word score, Coppes is pronounced like Cop and then saying 'ess' with the 's' said more softly.

Now I'm going to have to do a search on Miggery Sow. I never heard her story. :^)
