  • 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.

    Americans Believe Obama Will Deliver (See top 10 campaign promises)

    It is hard to fix other presidents blunders. I.E., 9-11 and Clinton's inability to kill Bin Ladin. If Clinton had done his job 9-11 won't have happened. At least Bush has kept old binny on the run so as not to 9-11 us againt. An those are the fact, girl. fishon

    Question?

    Deacon, I am a cofC pastor, and I tell you, my guess is these guys are just going to frustrate you. If they are 'bashing' over that old arguement, then nothing you say or show them will make a difference. To me, mind you, just me, but I believe that faith and repentance are so interwoven...

    Report: Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Waterboarded 100 Times

    If I thought there was a greater nation on earth, I'd move there. I have it made. I make $1700.00 a month, before taxes and SSI. I don't have health insurance, drive a pick-up with 200,000 plus on it. The nearest grocery story is 31 miles away and the gas is over $4.00 a gallon. And if there is...

    Israeli airforce practice attack on Iran

    When a snarly mongrel bares it teeth at me, when a snarly mongrel makes it plain, "You don't have a right to exist, I am going to take you out," that is when I go cruising his terriorty with my pit bulldog. He just might get the message, "I ain't going be a free lunch." What would be scary...

    Some questions about your denomination

    I absolutely agree with your statement: The focus and attention for all spiritual topics needs to be upon God's word and what it says. Yesiree, not on what it doesn't say. It doesn't say anything about Sunday School, so we have them and can agree on them. It doesn't say anything about choirs, so...
