• 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.

I have said it once and I will say it again. I shall NEVER be extorted to join a religion based on threats! I stand before the gods with dignity and honour, not quaking with fear. The only thing which is necessary for me to do is to uphold the Nine Virtues of my folkway. I have compassion for you Shield, because you believe you are right when to me you're the one who is enslaved.

[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. --Rev. 20

No human being is threatening you. It is the true and living GOD that is commanding you to repent. If you do not then verse 15 above applies to you.

Something to think very carefully about.

God's really unpleasant, isn't he?

No. He is holy and just!!!

You must study the Bible in order to appreciate and understand the righteousness of His wrath. It strikes only those who deserve it. Those who refuse to bow down to the Lord!!!

*insert block of Bible text here*

This is the Word of GOD. It is true whether you believe it or not!

How'd i do impersonating SOF?? :-D

Jeez, some of you are really rude.

If you don't like the faith, why comment on here so [wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth][wash my mouth]y? Why stoop down to insulting someone's faith? Even if it is 'turn or burn', nobody here has FORCED you to read.

You've gone it on your own, and with bad intentions you've come on here to insult another person's beliefs, especially on one of the holiest days for a Christian. :(

I'm really disappointed. Fluffy bunnies and bigots, the lot of you have been. :sigh:

If a person doesn't believe in God. Why would they take up words up against him. Unless they are on the other side of the spectrum.These are Question a warrior of God must ask. Wolves is sheep clothing state they have morals and make up lie for the naive to believe.

There have been problems with bugs over the last day or two, which are being repaired at the moment. These bugs appear to be affecting post order- it wasn't anybody's fault, however.
A bug, eh?
Since you seem to deny that this is the effect of atheist spiritual power - PROVE IT! ;)

Faith is not exempt from having to make sense.

1) This is the same man who said that heathens burning is holy and righteous.
2) Not my holy day, as a non-Christian you can't expect me to follow the rules of Christianity.

I'm really disappointed. Fluffy bunnies and bigots, the lot of you have been. :sigh:

Compared to the stuff that SoF has said in the past he's being treated kindly. That, and point out an insult. Point out where we're being bigoted.

I agree, but that's not the issue.

1) This is the same man who said that heathens burning is holy and righteous.
What?
2) Not my holy day, as a non-Christian you can't expect me to follow the rules of Christianity.
No, but I can expect you to be civil.

Two wrongs do not make a right.
