  • 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

    Twelve Reasons Against a Ban on Homosexual Marriages

    Personally, I feel that anyone who would choose to argue with such an explicit and strict passage has their own agenda and isn't looking to truly discover what the Bible says. That's a possibility. Make everything civil unions, have the churches call them "marriages." Seen as a civil rights...

    Twelve Reasons Against a Ban on Homosexual Marriages

    Well, let me be quite clear that I don't think it's the job of the government to legislate morality. If we legislate one sin, it's just a big old slippery slope until we're living in Saudi Arabia. Which is why I agree with civil unions for homosexual couples. I do not believe that homosexual...

    Twelve Reasons Against a Ban on Homosexual Marriages

    ...I'm not sure what the law has to do with my post, which was simply about the Bible's stance on homosexuality. As far as the law and gay marriage are concerned, homosexuals should not be denied certain benefits merely because they are homosexual. However, that doesn't give them the right to...

    Twelve Reasons Against a Ban on Homosexual Marriages

    Concerning the currently debated verses, I think that debate can be sidestepped by simply reading Romans 1:26 - "Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations...

    Muslim Brothers and Sisters

      Perhaps you have the ability to judge anyone and everyone's soul, but I don't.  All I have to go on is actions.  To a Christian, the world is full of enemies.  Enemies are people who would do you harm, spiritually, physically, mentally or otherwise.  Some people...

    Muslim Brothers and Sisters

    That's right. But an enemy is never a brother.

    Muslim Brothers and Sisters

    The Bible. It's quite clear about what our attitudes towards those of the world should be. If you want to disregard the Bible, that's your prerogative.

    Muslim Brothers and Sisters

    I must interject that it's not correct to call Muslims "our brothers and sisters". These terms are usually reserved for Christians; you're not "brothers and sisters" with just anyone on the planet. The Bible says that either you are for Christ or against him. By rejecting the divinity of...

    Abortion Clinics

    On the same token, is it right to kill an innocent child because its father was an evil man? Society imposes moral standards all the time. That's why it's illegal to steal, to kill, to cheat your business. God knows for sure what is or isn't a human life, but it's our responsibility to...

    Abortion Clinics

    The doctors aren't forced to do the abortions, either. If they don't want to do one, they don't have to. They're getting PAID. This is WHY it's so very wrong. It's LEGAL for them to make the choice to murder a baby. Should it be legal to murder anyone you want? And there aren't enough...

    Abortion Clinics

    This has been a disturbing issue for me lately...it came to me when I tried to think of abortion in a different light. What would we do if it was legal to kill Christians? What if there were certain places where Christians could be taken to be killed? Now, we don't know these...

    Gays in the priesthood

    I was talking to somebody today who said that the majority of Catholic priests are gay (or "have had homosexual experiences" as he put it, and he said that amounts to the same thing), and that the church even backs this up. Is this true? What are the numbers on gays in the priesthood? It...

    Suicide - Fatal Sin?

    Well, once again we interpret those verses differently. I do not believe that Paul's reference to grace means salvation. True, it can be construed to mean that, but God graces us in many ways. Just as He may become distraught with us and we get further away from Him as we sin, we fall a...
