  • 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

    The price on a pack of cigarettes has skyrocketed to $14.50 at some New York City

    Personally, I love the idea of taxing addictive substances. Even more i love anti-tax advocates being addicted to said substances. The idea of people who hate taxes voluntarily paying extra taxes to do something nonsensical which will ultimately kill them fills me with a warm, fuzzy feeling...

    I don't know if you intended that pun, but it was awesome either way. Although they may have trouble getting it underground.

    Hague 'surprised' if UK forces in Afghanistan by 2014

    Back then it was better to have terrorists than communists. Ah, the good ol' days; when nobody cared about consequences and Osama was our BFF. The drug problem is going to be a giant obstacle all by itself, especially given that we can't even contain it in our own country. So not only does...

    Mosque proposal draws protest in Tenn.

    Aside from noise concerns(which applies to other religions and buildings too), there are no legitimate complaints and no legal grounds from preventing this. Granted none of those people or commenter's are protesting the noise, because you know that might be logical.

    The Outbreeders: Mandating A Baby Boom For The Culture War

    Which required ending slavery, which required nearly destroying the south. It wasn't going to happen any other way. They may not have much sense, but they were smart enough to figure out that discrimination is wrong decades before the thought even entered most peoples minds. Something that...

    Hague 'surprised' if UK forces in Afghanistan by 2014

    So the one thing that we really need, we don't have. Again, that's not very reassuring. The Russians were there for a decade and we're just about to catch up. How much time does it take? Has anybody ever stayed around long enough to see if it's even possible? I might believe we had a good...

    Hague 'surprised' if UK forces in Afghanistan by 2014

    That's depressing... we have decades of technology in our favor, allies, doing a better job, and fighting a weaker enemy with less support and money. We have every conceivable advantage. Despite all that, we're in the same situation the Russians found themselves in. Once they left, their...

    The Outbreeders: Mandating A Baby Boom For The Culture War

    Given that we had to fight a war to end slavery, it took another hundred years for blacks to drink from the same fountain, and all of the craziness that still exists today we'd be in serious trouble if the federal government wasn't slapping people upside their head. It's not that the government...

    Americans overtreated to death; hospitalizations for last 6 months of life.........

    It's easy to say these things in retrospect, but the simple fact is that people don't want to die. If there's a small chance of survival, most people will take it. As medicine improves, there are more chances that something will work. It used to be that if the first few attempts failed, that...

    Payrolls in U.S. Fell 125,000 in June; Jobless Rate at 9.5%

    You mean like all the tax cuts we put in place before the economy collapsed? BTW, everything from dams to nuclear energy was once a pipe dream. Solar and wind aren't even ambitious, it's just a matter of getting it done. Now that space laser that Japan is building, you may have a point...

    Bill Clinton Says Blowing Up BP Well ‘May Become Necessary’

    I wouldn't be surprised if it comes to that. If the relief well fails we pretty much have 2 choices left. 1- Let it leak for what could be decades, if not centuries, and try to contain it while dodging hurricanes. 2- Give it the finger and start dropping bombs till one of us is dead.

    Atheist ad goes up on Billy Graham Parkway

    I love how they whisper the word "atheist". Something about that always makes me want to yell "BOO!"

    Judge in oil spill case sells energy stocks

    Many think we never landed on the moon or that Justin Beiber is a great singer. All three of them get lumped into the same group by sane people.

    Portland doctor plans house where terminally ill can kill themselves

    Every thing is it's own special case. Just because a reason can support multiple arguments doesn't make it invalid. Should we throw away religion because some people use it for things we consider crazy? Or should we look at each instance as it's own special case? It's not about being "less...

    Portland doctor plans house where terminally ill can kill themselves

    If by dealing with you mean putting their jobs and freedom on the line, then yeah. If by state approval you mean not being thrown in jail, then yeah, that would be nice too.
