  • 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.

tragedy occured to a rather great friend...

i have a friend that just went through a horrifying experience. there's no need to elaborate so i'll just tell you that she was harassed by one of her fav teachers and there is supposed physical evidence in it. i havne't seen this obviously, but the superintendent has and wants the teacher fired. so has the principal and many school board members and such. there is going to be an official meeting debating over what should be done soon, but there has been general harassment against her family since then and i witnessed it myself. the superintendent has suggested to her parents that she be transferred b/c of the harassment. this was very untimely and she is moving wednesday, just a week after the superintendent suggested this. she will see her friends again since it isn't too far but it's a big change from everyday. she has been attending this school since kindergarten too. please pray for her, her family, her friends, and even the teacher and his family. also, me and some of her friends want to do something for her and we have ideas but would like more. suggestions would be greatly appreciated, whether sentimental or just ideas to cheer her up. i can't explain how hard this is for her and all of her friends, especially over the conditions. this is also the unelaborated version, there is much more to the story. thank you very much for prayers and suggestions.
