  • 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

    What is your favorite military movie?

    1. Battleground - about the 101st at the Battle of the Bulge. It has the feel of reality. I don't know how they did it. 2. Stallag 17. 3. Galipoli - a superior film on several levels. I especially liked the intelligence officer that planned and executed the ruse. 4. Tora Tora Tora...

    What is your favorite military movie?

    A friend who was a real movie buff, said that the intro to 12 O'Clock High was his favorite. I agree. When an older Dean Jaeger "goes back in time" to the war, it just pulls me right back with him. Excellent. TommyO

    Justaman said: I liken the analogy to a race. You don't run a race without training first, do you? I notice you are theatrically inclined. Do you put on a play without a dress rehearsal? Hi Justaman, Usually guys make the analogy one of "I wouldn't buy a pair of shoes without trying them on."...

    Hi Maynard, You make an interesting observation about swim suits. As an adult male I often wear what you refer to as a "speedo bikini", tho I have never heard it called by that precise term. Why is a male wearing a speedo being immodest? The cut of a speedo is somewhat similiar to a woman's...

    Nudism

    Hi Clarity, The above scripture is part of a teaching on the importance of each individual member of the body of Christ; it is not a teaching on parts of the physical body. Paul uses an analogy to make his point, but this passage does not translate well into English. If, as you say, "there...

    Nudism

    Hi Shane, I believe you may be referring to the Levitical laws?? You did not give your reference. If so, you are the only person I have "met" who did not understand these were laws against incest, not nudity. I believe most if not all of the newer translations are more clear about this fact...

    Nudism

    Prior to the fall of man, nakedness wasn't sinful, but when when man fell, nudity became shameful.....Adam and Eve attempted to cover (the own works) their spiritual nakedness with aprons made of fig leaves, but this was inadequate and God graciouly covered (a picture of the atonement) them with...
