  • 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.

    What really works for OCD

    I have OCD - it's quite mild currently although in the past I was severely tormented by thoughts about judgement, hell and certain sinful acts. I was looking through this forum and I saw some posts from well-meaning Christians who are unwittingly giving harmful advice. The wrong advice tends to...

    Struggling as the child of an autistic dad

    I love Jesus and my family deeply, as do both of my parents. However my dad has undiagnosed Asperger's and doesn't realise it. I don't remember a single time in my life when my dad has shown legitimate affection or understood that I experience real feelings that are different to the feelings...

    Board games forum

    There is a "Gamers Zone" for video games and related. Also probably my initial idea of "board games" should be expanded to "tabletop games" so D&D and Magick would be included, since there appears to be a mysterious segment of the population that takes these things very seriously ;)

    Board games forum

    I think that there should be a forum for the discussion of board games (and potentially for playing them too). Turns out there are more people on CF who like chess than I had expected.

    Comment on each other's weird music

    Cool music, but that has to be the worst quality music video I've seen haha Particularly the woman looks like she'd rather be doing anything else!

    Comment on each other's weird music

    Listened to your song - it's quite interesting, although I thought the rapping could have been a bit more forceful and I would personally have made the song shorter. Good work though :)

    Comment on each other's weird music

    The idea of this thread is that you share weird music that you love and comment on stuff others have posted (unlike the other music sharing threads where there's no discussion). I'll go first:

    For people who believe homosexuality is not sin

    Thanks. I read the rules after your post and this is what they say: "Homosexuality, same-sex marriage, bisexuality, transsexualism and transgenderism may not be promoted* on CF (including member profiles). Several debate forums allow homosexuality, same-sex marriage, bisexuality, transsexualism...

    For people who believe homosexuality is not sin

    How do you respond to the argument that in the Bible marriage is a representation of the union between Christ and the Church and that Christ was before the Church as the man was before the woman in Genesis? I'm not trying to start an flame war but I'm interested in hearing both sides of the...
