  • 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

    Constantinople II Cannons on the Three Chapter

    Thanks for this. I have a friend who should be able to get a copy of Tanner (the contemporary Mansi) out of Notre Dame's library for me. I'll be seeing him Thursday, but if I need to before then or he hasn't gotten it yet, I'll give this a try. The original post is about a section of the...

    Constantinople II Cannons on the Three Chapter

    Thanks for this. However, I'm interested in the particularities of the Greek. Canon 4 suggests under the anathema section that it is necessary to describe the union of Christs natures as either synthetic or hypostatic. However, it later goes on (after the anathema) to imply that those two...

    Constantinople II Cannons on the Three Chapter

    Does anyone have easy access to the Greek of Constantinople II's cannons on the Three Chapters? I found it here, but it is basically illegible.

    Benedict XVI surpasses record of oldest Pope in history

    I'd argue that Benedict is not the oldest Pope because he is no longer Pope. Perhaps the oldest man to have been Pope.

    Help finding passage

    I did a search for "gods" and the Pentateuch and read them all. Came up with nothing.

    Help finding passage

    Thanks to all of you who replied. I may have to continue to do some searching. The passage I was looking for had more of an epistemic character to it. These are all saying "Don't worship Zues"; the one I'm thinking of is more along the lines of: "Don't think that Zues is Me".

    Help finding passage

    Hello all, I remember a passage, I believe in the OT, about not confusing the gods of other nations for God. However, I'm having trouble finding it. I was wondering if anyone knew what I was looking for. Thanks!

    Anyone know where I can get a list of the final proposition from Vatican II?

    How strange. Only because it seems kind of silly to put something in a footnote which is only available to yourself.

    Anyone know where I can get a list of the final proposition from Vatican II?

    Yes that is almost certainly what I mean. I was trying to cross reference something and looks like I should have looked more closely at the text before I assumed he was referring to, you know, the big one.

    Anyone know where I can get a list of the final proposition from Vatican II?

    St. John Paul II keeps referencing them in Pastores Dabo Vobis.

    The Tetragrammaton is an Abreviation?

    This is interesting, but I'm not sure what it has to do with the question at hand.
