  • 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

    My take on salvation through Jesus Christ

    More and more, I'm seeing two conflicting orders, one of irrationality and pointlessness, and one of rationality and justice. You see it in interwoven everywhere in nature. There's so much that's organized and harmonized and so much that's equally chaotic. I see Jesus, as well as Socrates, as...

    Why are Christians such prudes?

    Well, it was when you asked me why I think sex is evil. That's what I was referring to.

    Why are Christians such prudes?

    :sigh: I never said sex, in itself was evil. However, being that its such a powerful thing since it has to do with the reproduction of our species, it should be treated with the greatest reverence. Its not something to be taken lightly. Its one of the greatest forms of intimacy, and you really...

    Encounter With Police Drains Me

    I got a ticket for going through a stop sign. I was certain I stopped, but after pressing the cop, he said I slowly creeped through the stop sign without coming to a complete stop. It was late at night, no one was on the road at all. The traffic was completely empty, it was a 15mph street, and...

    Why are Christians such prudes?

    Hmm, well I'm against the pornographication of culture, because it can get really deranged if people just act on all their lusts, unhindered. If you've read up on countries like Thailand, where prostituition is rampant, they're like modern day Sodoms. I really don't think any culture should...

    Vegetable Gardens Are Booming in a Fallow Economy

    Why wait till spring? Prep the ground now to make sure it has the right PH and nutrient content for when you're ready to plant.

    Tomato blight is no joke

    Trucking in seedlings thousands of miles sounds inefficient and expensive. Its really not good for the environment. Last year I grew all mine from seed. Its really not that hard. It just takes a bit of pre-planning. Unfortunately, I got blight too last year. It adversely affected my yield.

    Can you meet girls at church?

    lol, nah I'm not. There's some girls I'm soooo glad I didn't date. I know for a fact I'm way happier single than if I was with them. People in general have issues. Its not just women in church. I have these episodes like this where i turn into a sentimentalist though. It could be said I have...

    Can you meet girls at church?

    Hmm, you have a point. I'll keep that in mind. My dad met my mom in a church, but that;s probably really rare. I've avoided church's in the past just because of the kind of gossip that goes on and the arrogant attitudes. Its prob not in all church's, but its pretty common.

    Can you meet girls at church?

    oh ok. Yah, I was just curious about if it presents those types of social opportunities in a more wholesome way. I was hoping people would give me some examples of how they met their wives or fiances there or whatever. Its a sensitive subject for me. I shouldn't have asked on the internet...

    Can you meet girls at church?

    oh ok. I'm not saying I expect the church to be some type of dating service for me. Its complicated. I don't really care to explain.

    Can you meet girls at church?

    Well, that's not the only purpose I'd go. I never said that. I'd go for communing in general.It probably is some antiquated thing. I shouldn't have bothered asking.

    Can you meet girls at church?

    I'm not really talking about picking up women. I just want to meet women. Its not really a sexual pursuit for me like meeting someone in a bar, more of an emotional one. I don't really want to have sex till marriage. I don't really care. I just look like an idiot now. I wish I never posted this.
