  • 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

    Here is that rosary I made Catherineanne.

    Introduction

    Yes it is. I still own two rosaries, both of which I made. I used to make large numbers of rosaries to give away. If I were to make some Anglican Rosaries, is there anything construction/design-wise that differs from Marian Rosaries? I noticed no centerpiece, which isn't a problem. Are oval...

    Introduction

    I've cooled off, and learned to use some of the features of the board to filter trouble. I like your little picture PV. How'd you get that? I prayed the rosary today for the first time in 15 years. Brian

    Introduction

    I am a Christian, faithfully married to a woman for 13 years, and I have had same sex as well as opposite sex attraction most of my life. I literally drove myself to injuring myself trying to make the secret homosexual feelings go away that I had been raised to believe made me so worthless and...

    Introduction

    Thanks for all of the great info, and I appreciate your welcoming spirit. I was a Latin mass attending Catholic back in the day; maybe I can brush up on my Latin pronunciation if I pray the rosary in Latin.

    TEC vs the continuum

    It saddens me that the elephant is a divisive issue. I don't particularly care for the term "homosexual" as a noun for individuals or groups of people, and I am not saying that to express displeasure with you; I am just stating my feeling about a word. I hope that in a few years this will be a...

    Introduction

    I really enjoyed the service this morning. For 12 years I've been spiritually dry in a praise-team style worship service, and had topical sermons that took Bible verses as proof texts from such varying parts of the Bible that it was impossible to actually follow along in my Bible. I really...

    Shamefull OCD Moment

    Hi Dave, I have OCD, and struggled with similar anxieties. The Bible nowhere says masturbation is a sin. Almost everybody does it. It's like using the restroom. People do it when they feel the urgency, but don't generally discuss it at the dinner table, but that doesn't make it shameful...

    Introduction

    Is praying the Catholic version of the rosary unheard of and weird for Anglicans? I found it somewhat soothing to pray the rosary when I was a Catholic, but I do have reservations addressing prayers to Mary, and I don't believe in the Assumption and Coronation mysteries of the rosary. JPII...

    Introduction

    My name is Brian, and I've started attending a Episcopal Church, and met with a priest today to answer questions I had, and it was quite pleasant. I am a former convert to the RCC, and spent many years in Evangelicalism since leaving the RCC. I feel like I am "wired" more or less for...

    Do Christians follow Jesus or Paul?

    I know that in my own witnessing, I generally quote Jesus and the following: Paul, John, James, Isaiah. Is this wrong? Perhaps I should only use the red letter parts of the Bible?
