  • 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

    Name some liberal churches...

    For the purposes of this discussion, are we considering churches belonging to the Unitarian Universalist Association?

    Christians and the Environment

    Can't say I've noticed that. But I know that some fluorescent lights are better than others.

    Tired of Censorship

    I think part of the problem is that people feel the need to scream and holler about something, without really knowing that much about it. As an example, I think anyone who has actually read a Harry Potter book could say that its version of wizardry/witchcraft has absolutely nothing to do with...

    Christians and the Environment

    Well, I'm not the kind of person who is going to actively make sure what I'm doing at every moment of the day isn't harmful to the environment in any way. But, there are quite a few small things I do just to do my little part. In my bedroom, I use compact fluorescent lightbulbs exclusively. I...

    Christians are not known for love?

    And I'm tired of people who tell everyone they need to be John the Baptist or Paul Christians, without really going through with it themselves... I'm not the kind of person who's going to get up and tell the whole world that I'm a Christian. I'd rather just sit back and quietly act out the...

    Two sidelined after protesting altar call on ban on gay marriage

    Who says their views are contrary to those of the Church? Maybe they just don't like the Church making political statements, which they're not supposed to do in the first place.

    A worrying topic in the Teens forum

    This is the way I understand it. I may be wrong, but here goes: The "unforgivable sin" is basically refusing to believe in the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the only reason it's unforgivable is because you're denying the existence of the one who can forgive you. Personally, I think God would be...

    A liberal view of atheists

    Sadly, that's pretty much the way it is anymore.

    I Love Halloween!!

    Cool! Just my two cents' worth on this one: Halloween was formerly known as All Hallow's Eve, which was the evening before All Saints' Day. So really, at the grassroots level, Halloween is kind of a religious holiday. (If I'm wrong on that, please tell me.)

    Being a Liberal Christian

    Makes sense to me. In fact, I agree 100%. Personally, I would consider myself liberal because I advocate making progress--which is basically the dictionary definition of 'liberal.' I don't think we should be bound to tradition just for tradition's sake. Of course, if one wishes to be...

    Thank you. I think nothing could be closer to the truth.
