  • 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

    Which outlets? Said what? Why?

    What video games are you currently playing?

    Expedition 33! I was intrigued by the hype surrounding it on social media when it released so I decided to check it out, and I’m surprised by how much I’m enjoying it. I don’t normally go for turn-based RPG’s, but this one pulled me in. It’s got beautiful character design and scenery, exciting...

    People age and get cosmetic work done, you know.

    Modern day systemic racism, does it exist?

    It’s painful to see this thread still going after nearly four years, but with the broadened perspective that time has given us, I have more to say on this topic. The term “systemic racism” entered the common lexicon in the early 2020’s as the BLM movement gained traction under a unique period...

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    What’s your preferred method of social progress and rebalancing of power structures?

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    I imagine they wouldn’t need to if other movements weren’t openly hostile to them.

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    I asked about the context of your deleted post, and your answer was vague, suggesting you didn’t want to offer specifics. I took it to mean that my first guess was correct. Call it confirmation bias, or call it good intuition. I’m not seeing denial.

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    Do what you will. It sounds like I have my answer, which doesn’t support your complaint.

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    Again, it looks like important context is missing here. Were you using specific statistics in an effort to support a racism-related argument on a Facebook debate during a time of heightened racial tensions and increased public scrutiny on the role of social media in public discourse? Or were you...

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    I think “punished” and “having different opinions” are being used very loosely here.

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    I’m willing to bet the sensational headlines reporting these instances are missing important context. It’s not a simple “you’re not allowed to say these things because the mustache-twirling elites don’t want any opposition to their authority.” It’s probably more like “People are being penalized...

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    I don’t think our ideologies are quite as idiosyncratically incompatible as you’re suggesting. Class interests unite far more of us than the political and donor classes would have you believe. That’s what my original post alludes to. Sure, we may be truly split on these wedge issues, but it is a...

    Transgenderism Is A Real Threat To Christians

    Transgenderism is just the latest cultural wedge the media and politicians are using to drive engagement with their platforms. The more we’re all preoccupied with something that concerns 1% of the population, the less likely we are to recognize how much we all really have in common. The more...

    Kevin Sorbo really true to the Christian Faith

    Normally I’m used to seeing people tear down Sorbo for his terrible movies and incendiary comments against Jews and atheists. But here, he’s viewed as being too soft on the gays? I don’t know what’s happened to this place. It’s taken a hard turn to the far-right in recent years. It’s sad.

    Abortion accidents where the baby is still alive

    How often and under what circumstances does this actually happen? It’s rare that a doctor ever agrees to a third term abortion, so it’s hard to imagine this is something that happens more than once in a decade or so.
