• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

    Right-Wing Agenda Endangers Coloradoans

    I live in Colorado and love TABOR. I didn't know until I read the article that it actually discourages police from issuing tickets for seat belt and other petty violations, now I like it even more. Money back from my own speeding ticket! Go Colorado!:clap:

    Taking advantage of the fantastic gay marriage laws

    I don't think government should be involved in marriage at all. It shouldn't marry people, or recognize people as having a "marital status". This would obviously require a change in some laws, and the tax code, but it would be for the good. Religious people could continue to define marriage in...

    Failure in Iraq

    You've got to be kidding. The United States can choose to leave Iran and North Korea alone, or try to deal with them. But to assume that the EU or China will "solve" anything with regards to these countries is silly.

    Failure in Iraq

    The invasion and occupation of Iraq has been a failure, and this is why: I believe the invasion of Iraq was never about WMDs or any imminent threat the old regime posed. They had no air force, no navy, no missiles, and shot down exactly zero of our planes patrolling the no-fly zone despite 10...

    Socialism, whats bad about it ?

    Socialism, the form that is practiced in Sweden, is not much different than the American system. Both countries have private property, corporations, unemployment/welfare benefits, old age pensions/health care, etc. In Europe the safety net tends to be more generous, as they spend a lot less on...

    Heaven??? Why would you want to go to there??

    Heaven sounds like a nice place to visit but I'm not sure I'd want to live there. Pain and pleasure, good and evil, joy and misery, constant change in a universe of scarcity is what being alive is all about. Non-existence doesn't sound so bad, once your ego can get past the idea. I like...

    Good & Evil

    As morningstar2651 has pointed out, destroying evil would define good right out of existence. But that wouldn't happen. If all evil (as we currently define it) were destroyed, other people or things would be defined as evil in their stead.

    Good & Evil

    Good and evil are opposites that exist in harmony. They need eachother. Good could not destroy evil without destroying itself.

    Where do you really stand on PI?

    On Non-Fiscal Issues, you rank as a Moderate Liberal (33). On Fiscal Issues, you rank as a Strong Conservative (94). Free minds and free markets.:thumbsup:

    The TE Gap God

    This takes God out of the game and makes him the playing field. We could now change the name of the forum to "Evolution with the implicit understanding that everything is controlled by God". Belief in God becomes a matter of 100% faith, that can neither be supported nor refuted by anything in...
