  • 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.

Catholic teaching never states that we cant pray to God directly. in the Bible, it says that the prayer of a righteouss person can accomplish much. how much more righteouss are those perfected saints in heaven than us? if you're...

    Praying TO Mary, or praying THROUGH Mary? - Roman Catholic Only

    youre right, jesus is the only way to God. but when you said that jesus is the only intercessor with God, youre wrong. St. paul clearly tells us to intercede with prayers for each other. jesus is the only gateway to God, but that does not mean that we are not allowed to ask other people to pray...

    sam, youre right. christians should investigate before they use "proof texts" of scientific facts to disprove the theory of evolution. but there are many learned christian men who HAVE studied evolution and still have valid arguments against it. not all christians are ignorant.
