  • 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's on your mind?

But. But... being sick isn't lazy. C'mon... you know you wanna :blink:

I can't tell if Swan is being an angel of mercy here or if she is somehow trying to twist the act of caring for someone into a devious temptation to commit the deadly sin of sloth. ^_^

I hate the taste of water, because there's basically no taste. Blech.

What awesome water are you drinking?
I wish that water from the tap here had no taste.

Nothing like the smell and taste of chlorine, fluoride and whatever metals the pipe are made from to make you pinch your nose before downing tap water. :|

I hate tap water but I hate filling my huge filter pitcher thing every two minutes.

You must live in a hard water area too... Yeah, I tend to pay the extra on my food bill and invest in a few bottles of mineral water. Even when I'm thirsty I don't want to drink from the tap.

Depends... What kind of history? And do you mind failing? XP

essay question is

How did the ideology of separate spheres impact women's lives in the nineteenth century in Britain.

You always seem the most knowledgeable person on here so am sure you wouldn't fail ;)

Awww, but I do like to lay on a fluffy couch and someone bring me my dr pepper. ;)

Yes, its the first time I've had to ever really deal with hard water..... at this level at least.

When my toilet started looking like a gas station toilet even while "clean".... thats when I realized just how hard the water is here.

I use a pur filter. It works, but the problem is to get cold water on demand I have to constantly fill it... otherwise it becomes empty and useless.

I don't mind filling it now and then, but when you try and switch from sodas to water drinking..... it becomes empty too fast even though its one of the larger versions of the pitchers (the one with the spigot that you don't take out of the fridge except to fill it.)

Awww, you're too kind.

Well, the separate spheres ideology actually originated in Ancient Greece and was talked about by Aristotle. I'm not sure about what it looked like in Victorian England beyond the stereotypical Pride and Prejudice: "A woman must have a thorough knowledge of music, singing, drawing, dancing, and the modern languages….; and besides all this, she must possess a certain something in her air and manner of walking, the tone of her voice, her address and expressions..." etc.

There were a few "philosophers" that fought against the idea, and Queen Victoria had a long reign , but by 1900 nothing had changed much in the day to day.

And on the flip side you have French philosopher Alexis de Tocqueville who studied the idea in 1840 America: "although the women of the United States are confined within the narrow circle of domestic life, and their situation is in some respects one of extreme dependence, I have nowhere seen women occupying a loftier position; and if I were asked...to what the singular prosperity and growing strength of that people ought mainly to be attributed, I should reply,—to the superiority of their women."

Ah. I'm sorry to hear. My grandpa had diabetes before he passed too. No I haven even heard of Tab.


Really!? Debunked!?

Aspartame is the most tested product, ever. Regulatory agencies around the world have tested Aspartame for more than 35 years and only one study has shown it to have any ill effects. And even those results are questionable because the purported "toxins" are in such minute quantities that the effects on the body are negligible.

It occurred to me earlier that I spend the most time in this section of the forum. I should venture out some. ^_^
I tried venturing out last year and none of the other sections were really very active-- or interest. Lol
