  • 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.

Should a church member get KICKED out of church membership if he/she is dating a non christian person ?

Hello! I think it's more 'birds of a feather should flock together'. Believers should marry believers.


The non-Catholic might say 'yea whatever', because they know in real life how hard it's going to be for the Catholic to raise children in the faith in a mixed household. It's easier to drag down than to pull up. The kids will soon detect the one parent's cynicism and it will have it's affect.

God Bless You :)
Yep, a decision would be made. Which is good and preferable to just restrict all together.

The threat to restrict would also provoke a choice. A choice between the faith and the infatuation. It could save a whole world of hurt. God Bless You :)
