  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    J-Rock

    I'm not into J-Rock, but I do love a bit of K-Pop! I know exactly what you mean when you say you can get a sense of what the song is about without having a full grasp on the language :)

    First time reading the bible

    I have just started reading the bible for the first time and I'm a little lost. Logic tells me to start at the beginning, but I think that may be a little difficult! I couldn't decide, so simply let the pages fall open and started reading Luke. How do you think an absolute beginner should...

    Are we reading too much stupid books?

    I think it's important to consider that reading isn't (in itself) a productive act. In my opinion reading a bad book is as much of a waste of time as watching bad television. I do love reading though!

    What's your favorite perfume?

    I love Vetiver by Guerlain - I know it's a men's perfume, but it's so grassy and awesome! :) In my opinion, all perfumes are unisex anyway!

    What thoughts help you quit?

    Today marks my first week as an ex-smoker and I'm feeling really good about it. I consider myself an ex-smoker (rather than a "quitting" smoker) because I don't intend to ever smoke again. Positive thinking! I'm feeling pretty tense and have cravings, sure - but I keep reminding myself that...

    Hello - I'm new to all of this :)

    Hi guys, I'm new to the forum, and want to introduce myself. I am a woman in her 20s in the UK. I was brought up as a Christian but my parents stopped going to church when I was 8 - and so I grew out of religion and considered myself an atheist. I've recently been going through a hard time...
