  • 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

Yes, as a missions major I acknowledge that Christ is the ultimate compulsory agent. However...what else do you like?

Personally, I'm into music, philosophy, and roller coasters.

Music always helps get me through day to day, but the thing that really helps me is keeping my focus on my ultimate goal/dream of flying. I go through my airshow photos from previous summers and watch the home videos of them. That keeps me motivated. The simple sound of a jet flying overhead energizes me and gets me excited to keep working. :)

I personally am not a big fiction reader, but I'm pretty sure that's a sin just because I'm ignoring that whole aesthetic.

Hmm... well I love to read anything I can about names, I'm fascinated with the meanings of names and origins and stuff. I also love to read about twins... hmmm. I love genetics, like how diseases and physical traits are passed from generation to generation.
Fiction... I like Karen Kingsbury, Randy Alcorn, Frank Piretti, pretty much any Christian author. I try to stay away from non-Christian authors...

A pic's worth a thousand words, so I will rephrase my response:

What are your favorite coasters, or parks?

Oh, and to everybody who likes music...what kind? Favorite artist? Favorite genre?

And to the plethora of people who will say..."all kinds, just not country or rap," rethink your words and try to narrow it down a bit. ;)

I'm into movies, reading and simply hanging out with small groups.

CCM is starting to bore me to tears so I have been listening to mostly secular stuff and classical hymns.

I would honestly have to say my favorite music is classical stuff (I include boistrous movie scores with that). I also like Rock, Jazz, and other easy listening.

As for favorites, in Classical lately it has been Yo-Yo Ma who is a fine celloist. As for other categrories I am not sure I have a favorite as I just listen to whatever.

Boss_BlueAngels, why are you into the BA so much? Are you a pilot? I have seen the BA in Air Shows several times and have ever been dissapointed. Why do you like them as opposed to the Thunderbirds?

My mom drives me. I see how hard she struggles and sacrifices to put me and my sisters through school. She has to work and she has an associates degree. So since she sacrafices so much, the least I could do is get good grades.

Stuff that I like books, music and computer games.
