  • 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

    What Creationism is Really About

    I have to disagree with the OP. It is my opinion that theism and science share a common, or at least similar, foundation: The simple desire to understand and explain observed phenomena. The ancients had no understanding of lightning, earthquakes, etc. and sought to explain such occurences by...

    Global.... Cooling?

    NOAA disagrees. I don't have enough posts yet to provide a link, but if you Google "medieval warming period NOAA" you can get facts from people who study our climate and atmosphere, not space.

    darwin recanted on his deathbed

    Darwin never recanted. The 'Lady Hope' myth has been retold countless times, but it never happened. Darwin's own daughter, Henrietta, stated, "I was present at his deathbed, Lady Hope was not present during his last illness, or any illness. I believe he never even saw her, but in any case she...

    SEGA endorses the hate of the Lord Almighty!

    It seems to me that anyone whose core beliefs are threatened by a book, film or video game would be wise to examine the reasons for said beliefs being so fragile in the first place. Also, the decision to market a video game is an indication of intent to profit from the desires of consumers, and...

    Good afternoon, everyone.

    My name is Bowen and I am a staunch atheist. I am here in an attempt to understand the nature of belief and the drive some people feel toward religion.
