• 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.

Why would God make sensible people fools? Seems an odd thing to do by a loving god?

I dunno but ...........

2 Thessalonians 2:11 states;​

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

I'm not sure where that quote comes from. Maybe the OP was thinking of 1 Corinthians 1:27 - "God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise"?
I was thinking of 1 Corinthians 3:19 due to the use of a personal pronoun. Some 'Catholic' translations use 'I' in that verse. But still the original poster is wrong about the sentence being in the Bible as far as I can see.

Just seen you live in the North West (UK) so do I! Small world.
