  • 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

    I can't stop!

    I wish I could help and say something really encouraging but I still burn myself. I did today and can't promise I will stop. I haven't actually cut though in 8 months though. I work in a restuarant and burning is too easy to do and get away with. I know that Jesus can help us though.

    Crazy superstitions about Southern people

    well the first time I went to Cherokee, NC, I looked for people to be living in tipee (spelling?). Only bear I saw out loose was in Cades Cove in the Smokey Mts. I know I talk with a Southern accent. The strangest food I ate was a bite of goat meat. Now goat meat is sold in the grocery stores...

    At work the other day, a teenager kept burning himself. He kept putting his hands on the hot biscuit pans and hot bacon pans, then kept saying "ouch". Later he showed me his burns. We work in a restuarant and Iwas on the same level as he, just there longer. I offered him a cloth pot holder...

    Crazy superstitions about Southern people

    Actually, "The Beverly Hillbillies" was from the Ozarks, not the south. The writer was from Missouri and based it on some of his neighbors being hillbillies. I saw the story behind the show on cable before.

    Crazy superstitions about Southern people

    I wouldn't know about the Irish stuff, my relatives came from England and Germany. I watched the movie last night, "The Miracle Worker" about Helen Keller. It irritates me when movie people get other people to play southern and try faking the accent. The cast was from Canada, I think. And they...

    Lost Nations? what happened to the indians?

    I'm guessing the census is only counting registered Native Americans and not alot of remnants. Alot of people didn't claim to be Native Americans but have more than 1/32 indian. My husband is 1/8 Cherokee but he wasn't a registered Cherokee. And the reservation map left out Cherokee indians in...

    Well, now I know where the place is with the totem or wooden statue is. It is in front of the Cherokee Museum. I went there a month ago. The leaves were beautiful but the highway from Gatlinburg to Cherokee was crowded all the way over the mountain. Anybody here actually live within 50 miles of...

    Crazy superstitions about Southern people

    I'm from north Alabama. I live in a mobile home not a trailer and we own our own land in the country. It is rather quiet, except for the neighbor's cattle and chickens. I don't call what I drink pop or coke, I drink Diet Mt. Dew. Coke sounds like cocaine, anyhow. We don't marry own cousins. But...

Is theere any guarantee that it won't make things worse by remembering the graphic horror...

    Last movie you watched

    "The Passion of the Christ" and it was really very graphic violent. I think I understood a little bit of the Aramaic, Hebrew or whatever it was, though.
