  • 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

    Dark Side of the Moon (Pink Floyd)

    I used to feel exactly the same way when I first got the album, but after listening to the album more the other songs grew on me. Much like The Wall, it's an album that's much more enjoyable when listened to as a whole.

    Guys.... Which is better?

    Well I think that if you think it's highly unlikely that anything will happen, it's best to be honest with him and end it sooner rather than later.

    Tongues---Again, but help me answer a question...

    Until a few months ago, I was kinda scared about speaking in toungues. I didn't want it to go 'wrong' (type #4). At a holy spirit evening my church had, one of the leaders told us about his experience of starting to speak in tounges when he was young. He had the same fear that i did, and he said...

    Global Warming my b***

    My sincere apologies, I missed you say this. Well I am very glad you agree that we need a viable alternative to fossil fuels. As you know I am not really concerned about the science debate so long as we are together on this. Where I disagree with you however is that we certainly do not have...

    Global Warming my b***

    I know that this particular post was directed at faith guardian, but I thought I would direct you to Luke 21:1-4; 1 As he looked up, Jesus saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. 2He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. 3 "I tell you the truth," he said...

    Global Warming my b***

    I understand that you believe that the disasters predicted by AGW will not happen, and as such that it would be foolish to put sanctions in place. I also accept that the proponents of AGW could be wrong. However given that AGW scientists are just as fallible as anti-AGW scientists, and that AGW...

    Global Warming my b***

    This is the exact same reason I am arguing my position. However I severely doubt that if we in the wealthy west reduce CO2 emissions that we will "destroy the whole Earth", let alone "[kill] people in third world nations". On the other hand, if AGM is correct then climate change will continue...

    Global Warming my b***

    In my opinion, whether or not global warming is caused by man is totally moot; the risk of not taking action is too great to quibble over the possible causes. I'm also quite surprised to hear so much skepticism on this from a Christian forum, when this issue holds such a parallel with our own...

    Help with prayer

    Well thinking about it, there already have been a few things that i think God helped me out with. I was a bit annoyed about some stuff when i wrote my last post, so that's why I felt so pessimistic. I'm still quite a new Christian really, and have such a long way to go on my path with God.

    Help with prayer

    Thankyou for the replies everyone! I've been thinking about it, and I guess my main problem is that either my prayers haven't been answered or perhaps more likely I just don't know they have. I had very tangible experiences of God when I was initially prayed for and then when I prayed to Jesus...

    How to let friends know I'm a Christian?

    Well I've tried my best to act like Jesus would in all situations, however I imagine that the change isn't that noticable because I grew up with strong moral values from my mother who's also a Christian. Most of my sins are the ones on the inside such as pride and greed, which are of course just...

    Help with prayer

    Hi again, I have another question! :p Although i don't have any doubts in my faith as such, I feel I don't really feel I have a proper relationship with God. This is mostly due to the fact that I don't really know when and where to pray or what to pray about. I do pray sometimes, but the...
