• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Just because you don't understand something doesn't mean you should make fun of it.

Certain people speak different ways, it's the way things are. Different types of slang are invented overtime, and many people adopt to talking in those slangs. So why don't you just chill out and learn to accept culture other than yours?

I agree. I dont find this funny at all. No one makes fun of other cultures who have accents and tend to say things that are not grammatically correct. . .yet we can make fun of a particular culture who had to learn english just like any other foreigner. And I think that it is safe to say that we know what culture you are making fun of. I cant speak for everyone, but I know what culture you are talking about. . and as a member of that culture, I dont find this funny. It wouldnt hurt to read some books about why certain cultures speak the way they do. Otherwise, you look really ignorant. I am so sick of other people making fun of the way my culture speaks. Especially when they dont understand why.

When I worked at First Union, we were awaiting a mail drop and one of my people actually asked me (and I swear to you, I am not making this up): "Do the mail be here?"

This is why I refuse to send my kids to public school.

:doh: First of all I went to private christian shcool my entire life and people spoke like that. Secondly, did you ever ask yourself why people spoke like that? Lack of educational availablity perhaps.

Having talked to you before in other threads, I find that a little hard to believe.

It's just unlikely to me that, if you had gone to Christian schools all your life, unless you are very young, that you still wouldn't know what Christianity teaches.

Secondly, did you ever ask yourself why people spoke like that? Lack of educational availablity perhaps.

We even offer free, public education to illegal aliens. How is it that someone doesn't have access to education?

What does all this english talk have to do with ROCK!?

It's to do with some people who don't dislike a certain genre of music as much as they dislike the associated sub-culture of that genre.
