  • 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

    Why are so many Christians fans of Ayn Rand?

    Matthew 19:21 "Jesus said to him, "If you want to be perfect, sell what you own. Give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then follow me!"" oh, i'm sorry, you meant Supply Side Jesus! that question deserves it's own topic, though reducing it to "capitalism vs...

    Why are so many Christians fans of Ayn Rand?

    there has never been a truly "free market" in the history of the planet, the main reason why being that such a beast can't effectively compete with mercantilist / protectionist systems a la 2010 China. you think government involvement in the economy is bad? how about monopolistic corporations...

    Does morality exist without God?

    this is a good thing to watch: FORA.tv - Daniel Everett: Endangered Languages but yeah, they are super-strict empiricists, lacking any sort of history longer than 1-2 generations. and so far, completely immune to the fundies trying to missionize (is that even a word? :P) them. in fact, they...

    Entertainer Arrested for Thoughtcrime

    the situation in northern ireland has affected every aspect of internal british security since the 1600s -- i wasn't saying that the Troubles period itself was the sole cause of this particular situation, but that any discussion of UK security laws has to take it into account. the various...

    Does morality exist without God?

    haha really? you seem to think it's "supernatural" yourself. and plus, there's no monolithic "christian" viewpoint on supernatural entities anyway -- and even those sects that do go on about that stuff have a remarkably impoverished system of dealing with the supernatural, when compared to...

    Does morality exist without God?

    not if you ask the piraha. it's just nature to them, and concrete experience, regardless of Everett's inability to see them. and they don't worship them or give offerings either, nor do they have any sort of shaman-equivalents. then again i'm not totally convinced that Everett is all on the...

    Why are so many Christians fans of Ayn Rand?

    so has anyone brought up ms rand's unequivocal support for unrestricted aborton yet? or that she was a passionate atheist who considered the very concept of god as "degrading" to man?

    Entertainer Arrested for Thoughtcrime

    it's got much less to do with "political correctness" and much more to do with continuing social problems dating back to the 1970s, often directly related to the troubles in northern ireland, riots in the 1960s, as well as the changing face of Britain in the post-WWII era. but that's really...
