  • 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

    Ted Cruz's New Year Message

    Does anyone take this seriously? The only thing factual was it was the last year of Obama's presidency. What a clown.

    The non-war on Christmas thread

    Emphasis mine. No freedoms have been squashed. You can still pray. You can still celebrate Christmas and all of the other religious holidays. There is legitimate religious persecution happening in the world, and listening to Christians in this country scream persecution because of a red cup or...

    Republican Alternative to ACA

    Why do you think every other industrialized nation pays about half of us for a single payer system if said system was so inefficient? This isn't some theoretical, there is demonstrable proof across the world that our system is bloated, inefficient, wasteful, expensive, and has worst outcomes...

    Texas Tin Foil Hattery

    I love my state and couldn't be a more proud Texan. But if ever there was a facepalm moment - this is it. I wish someone would have the audacity to stand up to these crazies. Unfortunately it seems that we elected the crazies into office.

    Obama's America: 48% now identify as lower class

    Who has excused it? People are just pointing out the partisan hackery of solely blaming Obama for a problem that was started decades ago. Also quite funny how we've also been assured that the increasing divide isn't really real or that it doesn't matter. Amazing the 180 the right has done and...

    Obama's America: 48% now identify as lower class

    But we've been assured that if the top have get even richer, it will trickle down to everyone else. Sounds like you're admitting that trickle down does't work.

    Obama's America: 48% now identify as lower class

    Note that this is perception, which people often under or over estimate where they fall. However, the middle class has been shrinking for quite sometime; trying to blame it all on Obama is nothing but partisan hackery. Notice increase in low class people really started with Bush, lots and lots...

    NSA and FBI fight to retain spy powers. Where is Oblah-Blah?

    Exactly. Stupid juvenile names like "Oblah-blah" and all the other childish antics some come up with just distract. Sad thing is they think they're being really clever and sticking it to him. Back to the OP topic, unfortunately it really just shows how people flip flop on a number of issues...

    New poll shows 61% of Americans support same sex marriage

    What a lame argument. Broad brushes much? Plenty of gay men have life long commitments in monogamous relationships. Plenty of heterosexual men don't. Your argument is all the more reason why everyone should be able to get marriage, to have legal recognition of their commitment and all of the...

    New poll shows 61% of Americans support same sex marriage

    It is quite telling that the things that actually do destroy the "sanctity of marriage" such as divorce or adultery they never speak about. Also quite telling that there is a laser focus on homosexuality as a sin, yet ignoring the plethora of other sins regularly committed.

    Rand Paul: "As president, I will get the IRS out of your life"

    Unless I'm mistaken, the only way to make up a 17% income tax cut with a 17% consumption tax would be if they spent 100% of their income on consumables subject to taxation, which isn't going to happen. So the net result would still be a reduced tax burden. And if that 17% consumption tax is...

    Washington Post: 95% chance Republicans take Senate

    95% chance senate goes GOP, 100% chance nothing changes. I wouldn't be surprised if the GOP takes senate, that they will overplay their hand and force a lot of members to take votes that will haunt them in 2016, which heavily favors the Dems for senate races. Not to mention that control of...
