  • 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?

I thought it was tongue in cheek

Y ... You'd think, wouldn't you?

But the guy's seemingly genuine attitude about child murder via bear attack just reminds me of the same attitude and sentiments that I mentioned here a month or two ago seeing prevalent through Tim Lahaye's and Jerry Jenkins' Left Behind books. And thus, it does in fact seem real in some few Christians and not just tongue in cheek. =/

So the India food was okay. During the meal I liked it, but later in the evening I felt it wasn't that good, if that makes sense.

Meetup was okay

A first date with a cute but adorably sassy young lass, I take it? :eheh:

It's like having a Filch and Deloris Umbridge rolled into one with a dash of religion for good measure. You can't reason with that.

How are things in your world?

They're about to be a bit painful in a burning sort of way later on today. ^_^ I have that second of six monthly appointments with laser treatment in Texarkana today, with the "Steel Magnolias" ladies at their elegant little clinic. :D

Having just been at work all night, I really should be sleeping now with so few hours left before I have to go out for that, instead of still up and lurking about on here. ^_^

You're getting beautified in good company. There's the pretty girl too. You should talk to her. ;)

Well then, we certainly have exchanged pleasantries at minimum both times I had been there before today, of course, and I have subconsciously taken to addressing her as Miss Rachel, it is true. You are right, though; how fortunate I am to have it be a group of pleasantly outgoing, well-mannered, fashionable, and in some cases quirky, ladies acting as my guides on this journey to looking eternally youthful. "Being beautified in good company", as you so cleverly said it. ^-^

"INFJ's are both thinkers & feelers, so around thinkers they are too sensitive, & around feelers they are too analytical."

"Pros to dating INFJ: incredibly supportive, intrinsically driven to make you happier every day you're w/ them, shakes the foundation of your worldview
Cons to dating INFJ: A lot of unresolved existential dread. Might take 1000 years to think thru an issue then unexpectedly hits you w/ a master's thesis on what's wrong"

@sampa
Interesting. My 20s, 30 up to 43 years old my mutual attractions were with INFJs. Since last year it's been extroverted and introverted thinkers. I think J for judging has been also a common theme because of organization. I doubt I will ever be interested in INFJs again just because I don't feel there's enough growth development that I need. I kind of think I need somebody who can bring me more down to Earth because sometimes I can be too much with my head in the clouds. Also when I get emotional, I want someone to bring perspective and moving away from emotions for concrete decisions. Intuition is great and can be spot on, but emotions can get messy.
I really like my infj friendships though, it's nice to have someone that thinks like me but just a little bit different. I feel so normal around them since most of the world thanks on a different level.

What's the likelihood of encountering someone who catches your fancy in a place like that? Get to know her. You never know where it might lead.

I look for a complement too. I don't need another bella. Some of my friends are ENTJ's. But I doubt the majority are. The differences are helpful. I gain new perspectives.

I've partnered with my share of I's. But dating an E was really nice. I was more outgoing and sociable. He added to my E and I like that. I didn't have to be the social butterfly because he was and I learned a lot from him.

I just asked @cara-mia hers. She's an ENFP. I expected an F.

A Campaigner (ENFP) is someone with the Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Prospecting personality traits. These people tend to embrace big ideas and actions that reflect their sense of hope and goodwill toward others. Their vibrant energy can flow in many directions.

Campaigners (ENFPs) are true free spirits – outgoing, openhearted, and open-minded. With their lively, upbeat approach to life, they stand out in any crowd. But even though they can be the life of the party, Campaigners don’t just care about having a good time. These personality types run deep – as does their longing for meaningful, emotional connections with other people.
