  • 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

    Site claims to have "Original Aramaic Bible" What say you?

    The Assyrian Church of the East which is at least as old as the Roman catholic Church has always used an Aramaic version of the New Testament. There is nothing new about this, it is just that for 1000 years their church has been small in number. The Church of the East calims that the Aramaic...

    Why Neo-Darwinism is wrong?

    Sorry I may have misunderstood your reply. When you said, I thought you were meaning that some animal hybrids do produce self -sustaining populations, and so i wondered what these might be. So it may even be that all animal hyrids do not produce a self sustaining population? Thanks...

    Who is Lucifer?

    Hi kingdom come. I was taught that these verses refer to satan but I have since changed my view. It seems to be talking of an earthly king (the king of babylon?). IIRC the hebrew refers to either the planet venus or the assyrian or babylonian god of the dawn. I would have to go and check up...

    Why would God make carnivores before the fall?

    Hi I am not YEC but the traditional view (Augustine , Luther etc) has been that animals were always created mortal. Only man was created with the possibilty of not dying. The idea that animals did not die before the fall of man is a new idea not an old one.

    When translating the aramaic new testament into english Aramaic speakers such as Victor Alexander tell us that at times certain phrases in Aramaic are not to be taken literally, but rather are idiomatic constructions. An example would be Matthew 8:21 Another disciple said to him, "Lord...
