  • 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.

    My apologies if I offend anyone, I'm new to this. I do not believe evolution is a tenable understanding of creation, nor the Big Bang for that matter (the physics contradict the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle as a singularity would have to have both position and momentum, but that's another...

    Are Agnostics also Atheists?

    One of my theology professors defined agnostics as 'timid atheists'.

    I need your help...

    I've had good luck selling the book person to person, and it's been edited by a priest/professor who studied at Oxford, but I've had absolutely no success beyond that. The forum will not let me post my internet site, but if you Google 'timeofthechrist' you'll find it. (Actually the Orthodox seem...

    I need your help...

    I need your help... I am new to this forum, and must confess, I've never been very good at this sort of thing. The reason I'm writing is that I've written a book. It was originally accepted by an academic publisher but the Seminary I work for part time (Nashotah) could not come up with the...
