  • 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.

    Terraforming!? Noooooooo!

    Terraforming seems like science fiction but it isn't really all that difficult. The idea is really to build a sustainable atmosphere. Yes it could take generations upon generations but that is time that we definately have. For now it is useless and perhaps even a waste of money, but when the...

    Why do atheists come to CF

    Pretty much every high school atheist has something inside of them that automatically makes them want to find a group of christians (whom they tend to think of as retarded, uneducated, creationist rednecks) and use their philosophy 101 skills and basic understanding of evolution to "defeat" the...

    Why do atheists come to CF

    Are you really 13? You seem like you have a lot to prove. You remind me of myself as a young atheist. Militant and ready to argue with everyone. Sometimes it just ain't worth it, even if you know you're right.
