  • 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

    Does the Bible ever really allow divorce?

    I think Moses says it is allowable but Jesus later sort of said that it was not supposed to be. So it seems that even with an abusive spouse you have to stick it out? Now I'm just going to ramble but please focus on the above question! I personally consider my wife abusive (and I admit it...

    I need help

    For 6 days you work, on the 7th you rest. In your case your work is art and your 6 days of work is for art that will pay your bills. Devote the day of rest to art of the lord? That's my opinion.

    Hello everyone. My wife has Alzheimer's.

    Look into a book called "plant paradox" (I think the full title is much longer) by steven gundry to deal with autism. I worry I'll be blasted for being a heretic for thinking outside the box, but most of these long term degenerative disorders are continuously fed via a diet. Also a "bad diet"...
