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.

Names change a lot.

As an example...

Why do we all remember your name as "JohnEverert"? Was it really always JohnEmmett? Can you explain that? Huh? Really? I thought not!

I don't need a google gaggle to know that Madonna is her given name. It's just not her full (legal, birth) name. "Prince" was also his given name.

An entertainer uses just part of their name, so what?

This isn't some sort of quantum alternative reality, just entertainers using stage names. Are you confused that you don't know the films of Marion Morrison?

She changed her name in timeline X


That was noteworthy

Apparently, I live in timeline X then, since I am aware of it. (Like most humans I found out about it after it happened because I didn't know of her before she was famous.)

That timeline… magical

This timeline… :(

You don't live in the timeline where Madonna dropped part of her name? Or is she not a pop star at all in your timeline?

She's not my favorite, but my youth would be missing something if she wasn't a well known singer. Perhaps this explains your intransigence not living in the Madonna time line.

Her birth name was not Madonna


Similar to Marilyn Monroe…

Looks like the timeline has shifted again, because in this time like it was the first name given on her birth certificate:

Madonna - Wikipedia

From the very moment I first found out what her pre-stage name was it was always Madonna as the first name in my timeline.
