  • 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.

I love beekeeping and even more so I love catching honeybee swarms. Normally swarms are not too aggressive as they have no hive to protect, but from time to time I find the rowdy bunch. Last one I got was at a saw mill, I had on shorts and a tshirt with sandals. I got a box and a ladder from the owner and climbed up into the tree to get them. I was stung so many times I could hardly bend my arms or legs and my one eye was swallen shut, but I got the swarm with the queen!;)
