  • 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

    McCain: Obama is not ‘an Arab’

    You say they're your neighbors and friends. Just curious, and nothing at all meant by it, are you from Bethlehem, or the Lehigh Valley in general? I am. I graduated high school in the building in the video (Lehigh U. Convocation Center). I also saw Aerosmith, Yes, INXS, Ted Nugent, Bill...

    Fox News: Is English Too Hard?

    For thousands of years, people have been speaking English... Which English? Old, middle, new? American, British, Indian? English orthography is screwed up, though it won't be changed any time soon.

    Second Amenment thoughts

    I do actually support a citizen's right to own arms. I even did so myself once (although I never actually fired it). However, I can see no reason why people should be allowed to own assault weapons and the such, nor why they shouldn't have background/safety checks to make sure they are...

    Bush: Keep abstinence in AIDS program

    I don't know of anyone who would be against teaching abstinence in sex-ed. It just makes sense. One of the problems however is that many of the materials provided to schools have faulty information, such as abortions can lead to sterility and suicide: Some Abstinence Programs Mislead Teens...

    Bush: Keep abstinence in AIDS program

    Does anyone else think it's strange how Bush wants "all sides of the debate" in creation/ID/evolution taught but advocates a different standard with sex ed?

    Curse word airs on ABC morning show

    I live in Japan and I just watched NYFD: Rescue Me for the first time last night. Here it was shown on Fox. Is it shown on Fox in the states? I'm not a prude (I was a bartender for many years and have pretty much heard it all), but some of the content was shocking, especially if it is shown...

    Why Do Atheists Hate Kent Hovind?

    The trouble is many of these hucksters (e.g., Hovind, Hinn, Robertson, etc...) get many of their donations from people on fixed incomes who can't afford it. I wish these people, if they want to donate their money, go to their local church and donate it where there might be a modicum of...
