  • 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.

    Joel Osteen says "Mitt Romney is a Christian."

    I know this might upset some people but my Church teaches that Mormons are not considered Christians because they lack Trinitarian Baptism and are polytheists. Mormons consider themselves Christian but they lack the one defining belief that the Nicean fathers clarified in our creed. The Holy...

    How To Get Out Of Cf

    When I say 'spiritually edifying' I mean as a Catholic. The people on OBOB are Catholic of liberal or conservative persuasion and they have been awesome!

    Bibles are ‘homophobic’, Scots police told

    Police in their official functions (when wearing uniform) should not use a Bible, Torah or Quran fullstop. Only exception should be when attending funerals or weddings.

    English Teacher Fired From Catholic School

    Well we don't know that MPOK1519. Everyone is speculating. They do not know the personal situation of the Principal. It's all based on innuendo and accusation and 'what ifs'.

    How To Get Out Of Cf

    Thank you for your kind words Josh. I will miss everyone here on OBOB. My reasons for leaving are: 1. I spend too much time on here; 2. I don't find it spiritually edifying for me; and 3. My Priest advised that time spent on here could be better spent elsewhere within the Church. That...

    English Teacher Fired From Catholic School

    Depends on the reasons for divorce. Do you know the Principal and the ex-spouse or the conditions of the marriage? There are other considerations. a) Was the spouse Catholic? b) Was there adultery or abuse? c) Was the wedding held in a Catholic Church and the Sacrament of Marriage administered...

    ANZAC Day...what does it mean to you...will you be doing anything to commemorate it ?

    I served in the Army for 6years deploying to Timor, Iraq & Afghanistan. I take the occasion to remember those who have served, currently serve and will serve their country. For me I am not glorifying war but I think honouring people who have made the ultimate sacrifice. It would be utopia if we...
