  • 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.

    Question for those who've chosen Orthodoxy over other Christian traditions

    Georgians are traditionally Orthodox Christians so its natural to join the Orthodox Church in Georgia.

    Why dose God hurt

    God loves us.... and God is LOVE itself. The hell isn't independent torture, it is condition and feeling of the soul. The soul which goes to hell, will be much less tortured there in comparison with heavens.

    Many people have no knowledge of Orthodoxy or its history

    I use older Georgian flag because of this message board system. This web page automatically choses the flag after indication of the country and unfortunately here they haven't installed the newer flag yet so when I registered as Georgian, I was automatically given the wrong flag. :)
