  • 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

    Question about guilt.

    Hi guys, don't know if this is in the correct forum. Wanted to ask a question about feeling guilty not helping some colleagues. Me and my colleagues are currently on a business trip. My job is in IT and what I do is help people everyday. I enjoy doing so. Currently we have to claim back...

    Backing out...

    Hi mina... I guess I thought this is what I wanted and found it not to be the case. She mentioned to me at several stages she never wanted a relationship and was totally negative with regards to relationships, so was I. Then I came along and her views changed. Same thing with me, however I...

    Hi all, About five months ago I met my fiancé. Things moved very fast in our relationship and I got to know her family really well. Her mom at several times stating that they accepted me as a son. To the point....the past week I have had second doubts, I had these doubts before and I backed...

    Engagement vs. Marriage

    Hi all!!! Want to ask a stupid question. What are your main views on the difference between engagement and marriage? My immature view is that this is the main ground on developing your relationship as it one day should be. I am going through a couple of things in my life at the...

    Rob Bell and the emergent

    Hi all. Read one of his books and have a couple of his DVD's. Like it a lot. His stuff is simple, like said above, it gets you involved. It is straight forward. It makes sense. Where it helps (although not something you can live by everyday) is that when you need that quick inspiration you can...

    John 8:1-11

    Hi, good question. I read something similar to this elsewhere. However, what I read about it is that nobody realy knows what he wrote. I think you can speculate about it. Here is something interesting (please remember, I do not think anyone knows specifically what was written, I am just adding...

    Confusion

    Have to agree with epiclesis. Does he know how you feel? Think maybe you feel to bad to leave him....just a nudge.

    How can I stop going too far sexually with my girlfriend?

    Hi Fatolia, Well to simply put it (not trying to be a saint) but I really cared about her morals. We agreed on it. But what then happened is I called an end to the relationship and my main reason (do not be harsh) was that things were getting real boring. There are quite a couple of other...

    How can I stop going too far sexually with my girlfriend?

    I myself am a person looking for solutions to things. Sometimes (actualy more of the times) it is quick fixes I am after. This is one of those not so quick fixes. At the end of the day, it will defintely be about prayer and you realy need to have a will to stay away from it. I was with a girl...

    Your (My) Purpose, and a couple of things...

    If someone asks you right now what your purpose in life is and if you found it, what would you say? Feel free to share what your purpose is. My reason for the above, I'm clueless and have been ever since I have been younger (now 23). Daily I ask myself what my purpose is and what I really want...
