  • 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

    Evolutionists... Please help me tear this argument apart

    Elijah, earlier you said that you used 10^120 as an illustration, and that the number itself was besides the point. But why do you keep using that number to back up your argument? I thought we had already established that 10^120 was an irrelevant (and possibly randomly chosen) number, and that...

    Today I Saw An Airplane

    After Zeluvian's post, I don't think much else needs to be said on the matter!

    Today I Saw An Airplane

    No no, that's a very good question. The reason I am an atheist is that I don't believe in any greater power. I don't believe in any kind of supernatural, or a soul, or an afterlife, or any sort of creator. And so, I don't feel I would benefit from, and have no interest in, scripture. I have read...

    Today I Saw An Airplane

    Revelation, you sound like Mrs.Garrison from South Park in that episode with Richard Dawkins! I love that episode! Learn about evolution before you try to argue against it. Also, do you think that your post contains some argument or analogy that no-one has ever thought of before (the airplane...

    Are racist or homophobic jokes ok if they are funny?

    I think the danger of racist & homophobic jokes are that they re-enforce stereotypes. When stereotypes are continually re-enforced, there is the danger that people start to forget that it is a stereotype, and accept it as truth. For example, the Nazi regime in Germany re-enforce Jewish...

    I like questions, me!

    I love Oliver Sacks! If you like his books, I would highly recommend Raj Persaud's books too.

    Whats up with my dad?

    Maybe there are things going on in his life that are putting extra stress on him, and the ball was the straw that broke the camel's back? I think you should talk to him about it. Explain your point of view, and find out what provoked that reaction. Really though, he's the only person that can...

    Doubting things I shouldn't be doubting!

    In my opinion, a certain level of doubting is healthy. If one doesn't question things from time to time, then it would be very easy for one to be led astray. It's human nature to question things and inquire, but if it's causing you distress perhaps you could try reading the bible, or speaking...

    Hello

    Hi, my name is James, and I'm from Dublin, Ireland. I was brought up Catholic, but I am now a devout atheist! The reason I joined christianforums.com, is that I like discussing religious and moral issues. I find that athiestic forums tend to be very one sided. I don't mind having my views...

    hypnosis?

    Personally, I don't believe hypnotism is demonic, and I don't believe you can be hypnotised to do something you are morally opposed to. However, regardless of that, hypnotism isn't going to do anything on it's own. I think you'd be wasting your time and money. At the end of the day, the only...
