  • 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

    not so much a believer, more a 'seeker'

    Thanks everyone for your replies so far. The thing is, I'm aware that a Christian lifestyle will require some sacrifices from the way I live now, and I need to be as sure as I can be that these sacrifices will be justified.

    Is it Bad to download music????

    Just to clear this one up, radio stations don't have to pay for the music. I'm a Producer at a radio station and all our music is sent to us as 'promotional copies' which means we can use it as we see fit.
