  • 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

    Help!!!

    Your suggestion is a sound one. I would just point out, that if one is interested in logical consistency, your suggestion shouldn't lead to Buddhism. It should lead to a rejection of all on the basis of insufficient evidence and contradiction.

    Lots of responses, and very respectful ones at that. I'll do my best to respond in kind. First to the question, "What do you mean by this? Did you become an Atheist after first believing in a deity other than that of Christianity (and Judaism and Islam)?" What I meant was that every...

    Help!!!

    This is typical new age quackery. Others have correctly pointed out that given the contradictory tenets of the different faiths, at least some of them must be wrong. Likely the vast majority. If we're going on measurable evidence... All of them. Regardless it's very "in style" these days to...

    I've been browsing these pages for some time now, but I just registered so that I could reply to your post. I've been an atheist for 15 years now. Ever since I was about 16. I was raised in a Christian family, but I wasn't ever actually able to believe the things they told me. Even as a...
