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.
Why call motherhood a "job"????

To me, it is a job. It is a career, it is my life. I work 24/7/365 and rarely, if ever, get time off. It is a calling, too and it was my decision. It is a blessing and I am grateful that I get to stay at home. I won't be "going back to work" because I *AM* at work.
I'll be the one to come out and say this, though (not the case with me, but with some...it is); not *ALL* mommies choose to have their children.

For me it's a ministry and the greatest one I think the Lord could bless me with! I mean think about it as mommies we have our own unreached people group right under our roofs, what an amazing ministry raising our babies to grow to be people who loves the Lord!

To me being a mom is not a job, being a wife is not a job, getting an animal is not a job... these are choices I made but, yes the dreaded but... with these entitlements comes jobs. Cleaning, cooking, laundry, mowing, paying bills, scheduling appointments, taking dogs for walks, bathing the animals, etc.. the list could go on... these are where the "job" title comes into play. I know some might say that cleaning, cooking, etc.. should not be considered jobs because that is just loving/nurturing your family. I don't agree with that. I can love/nurture my family with a dirty house, dishes in the sink and a mountain of laundry to do. Just my thoughts
