  • 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

    What does it mean by One God?

    Being that we are created in God's image, the best analogy might be that since we are composed of mind, body and spirit, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, each represent one of those aspects. So in the same sense that we are one in 3 distinct parts, He is One.

    Atheism and Health

    You have free will and can choose to believe what you will. Do you believe the earth is a ball? That was a choice because i suspect you have never taken a space flight around it to determine the "proof" of it. Your will to believe it is based on the "witness" of scientists and astronauts. Most...

    Coronavirus pandemic: God’s punishment or meaningless bad luck?

    I don't know if it is a punishment for anything specific other than at the very least not following the clean and unclean laws in the OT. I realize the churches preach that we are exempt from them but considering the plagues we have experienced through the past 2000 years, I would wonder about...

    Atheism and Health

    Depends how close minded you are and whether you are willing to seek. Out of curiosity, by who or what measure of morality are you going to compare His morality to?

    Atheists debates - is it worth it?

    If you do a google search for "Jesus visions" there are quite a number of hits for people who have seen him since His ascension. This link lists quite a number over the past 2000 years recorded by the Catholic church alone. Appearances

    Atheism and Health

    It is not for me to give you sufficient evidence that a god exists. All I can do is share my own testimony which you may or may not accept as enough of a substantiation to consider doing your own experiment. I do have confidence that if you did follow the methodology that I did with the same...

    Skeptical theism and the evidential problem of evil

    or 4. Therefore, an omniscient, omnibenevolent and omnipotent God is not the god of this world..

    Atheism and Health

    Is it really explicable? Did you realize when you became an atheist that you were going to be taking on a worldview that would lead you to be statistically more prone to depression and other mental health issues, more prone to substance abuse and higher rates of suicide? From what I have seen...

    Atheism and Health

    Maybe not but it does point out that both the quality and quantity of life is better for the theist which is something promised to them and is statistically verifiable.

    If Christianity the true religion, how is it observably different from other, false, religions

    I'm saying that the Pentateuch gave the Israelites (and Christians by extension), the practical applications of both germ and dietary theories 3500 years ago. Long before the sciences behind either had any inkling of them. It is also good as a response to your own requirement in the The...

    Should We Teach Creation As Science In Public Schools?

    In Canada we were still doing the Lord's prayer up till 1988 in public schools. A couple of provinces still retain the right but don't exercise it because of the cost of defending against human rights violations. Prayers

    If Christianity the true religion, how is it observably different from other, false, religions

    The OP hasn't been on in 3 weeks so if you are taking over the thread for him by rebutting arguments then perhaps you could do so for post #68 . :)

    I know it can be hard to see during the times of trial but this poem reminds me what the reality is:

    Should We Teach Creation As Science In Public Schools?

    From Strongs Hebrew Dictionary: tôhû From an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), that is, desert; figuratively a worthless thing; adverbially in vain: - confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness. bôhû From an...

    Should We Teach Creation As Science In Public Schools?

    Verse 1 and 2 clearly indicate that the heavens and Earth preexisted Day 1 when God called for Light. There is nothing in verse 3 or subsequent ones that mention at what point the earth, water and the heavens were brought into existence. Right and using that analogy lets follow it with how the...
