  • 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

    Siri

    I don't have any iOS devices anymore except for my old 2G iPod Touch, and I rarely use that. I had an iPad until Feburary of this year. I used greenp0ison to jailbreak that. I don't know what the current state of iOS jailbreaking is.

    Siri

    awitch is correct. You have to Jailbreak the phone. That part didn't really take hackers long to do. The interface to Siri was running on iPhone 4s and iPads within maybe 2 weeks or less. What took longer was getting around Apple's arbitrary server-side block. There are files that have to be...

    Siri

    Siri has been ported to the iPhone 4 and iPad 2. It's nothing to do with processing power and everything to do with Apple artificially limiting their technology to get people to upgrade like they always do.

    decaf coffee

    I can't stand the taste of coffee. It's disgusting.

    buying games online

    DRM = assume the customer is a criminal. All it does is create headaches for legitimate users. Pirates are unaffected by DRM, and will usually get around it very quickly, sometimes even before the game comes out (see: Spore).

    Irish foreign minister Eamon Gilmore: If the Pope wants to visit Dublin for the...

    I'm curious. If the Pope *did* express wishes to attend, would you instead be saying that the Pope shouldn't attend because of the scandal?

    buying games online

    Steam is probably the biggest digital distribution platform these days. There's also Direct2Drive and Amazon.com.

    Differences between the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church?

    Primarily the role of the Pope. The Orthodox think the Pope was a "first among equals" (primer inter pares). In this sense, he had the ability to sometimes mediate disputes between other bishops, and he was the nominal "head" of the Church. But he did not have any authority beyond the boundaries...

    Singing is Praying Twice

    Catholics are notoriously bad at singing. It's a grassroots campaign to make Catholics unbad at singing. It is the only possible answer!

    The Dolan Decree: Archbishop of New York Lays Down the Law on Same-Sex Marriages

    Pretty sure Archbishop Dolan is one of the few bishops who has come down really hard on the abuse scandal. He's even been accused of starting "witch hunts" for abusive priests. The Church needs an infinite amount more of that.

    Pledging more support for "transgender kids", Girl Scouts reconsider membership...

    Much of gender, including stereotypical "girl things" and "boy things," are a cultural construct. What it means to be masculine/feminine can differ greatly between societies. Everything from style of dress to gender roles can be different. The double standards when it comes to men/women in the...

    Why is there a seemingly perpetual stigma towards the Catholic Church?

    Most anti-Catholics don't actually know what the Catholic Church teaches. Or, they do "know" in the sense they've been told what the Church teaches, but they ignore it and continue claiming something else anyway. Most bigotry is based on ignorance. Some are rational enough to overcome bigotry...
