  • 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

    Prophecy you can trust.

    You were just dishonest in the OP. Had you left the verse intact without molesting the text, and then given your ideas that it refers to Muhammad, I would not have said anything.

    I apologize for jumping to that conclusion and being rude.

    Christians in Gaza Fear for Their Lives as Muslims Burn Bibles and Destroy Crosses

    Yes, and I also know that even with all that, it is hard to stop lone attackers with hit-and-run tactics. There are guards and all in many places around the world, but there are always cracks and ways to get around those guards. Maybe you are correct and more could be done with force. I'm just...

    Christians in Gaza Fear for Their Lives as Muslims Burn Bibles and Destroy Crosses

    Well, if it's anything like the typical Hamas strategy, it's a series of small attacks that are hard to predict or stop. Bringing in military force doesn't stop lone attackers from hitting a church, building, synagogue, cafe, whatever. I really wish for a peaceful solution to that area of the...

    Fire

    Which law is this? I know of no such idea that by eating with a tax collector you would be unclean. You state later that you don't expect a member of another faith to understand. That's understandable, but I would expect you to realize you should reflect that upon yourself and Judaism. You do...

    Evidence for the other guy

    Before going more off topic, I'll send you a PM.

    Would the world be better without atheists?

    I can see where you would think that given your faith. I must respectfully disagree. :)

    You are correct. I was more rude than I wanted to be. I apologize to anybody offended.

    Evidence for the other guy

    I wasn't suggesting that Christians think it is a sin, but in some circles it is viewed as one of those pleasures of the flesh that are not as good as the fruits of spirit. I think that's why many fundamentalists have this strange view of sex, dancing, eating good foods and such, because of...

    Evidence for the other guy

    Well, think of it this way. I will be married next year, and we plan to have children. I am not going to feel the sex I have with my wife is unpure, unclean, or anything like that. It is a beautiful, joyful experience between people who love each other. I refuse to see it as at war with my...

    The Homosexual Sin: Let the Word speak for itself!

    Indeed. Jesus didn't invent that idea.

    Christians in Gaza Fear for Their Lives as Muslims Burn Bibles and Destroy Crosses

    I am not trying to debate, just understand your position. Could you please tell me about the country of Palestine? What language did they speak? Can you name a ruler, prime minister, elected official? What currency did they use? When did they occupy the territory as a soverign nation?

    She didn't seem to be complaining of ruder members, but all members. If you are that unhappy, leave.

    The Homosexual Sin: Let the Word speak for itself!

    Actually, we have Love Thy Neighbor As Yourself in Leviticus, so we're to act with love toward others.
