  • 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

    Have a hard time believing and it terrifies me

    I don't think it is a good idea to have your fear of death pressure you into believing. Those are two different matters. Your fear of death is a psychological illness that needs to be treated by a therapist. The reason you are afraid is not because you don't believe in the afterlife. Not...

    Might be potentially triggering. Dunno if this can be posted here.

    The OP does not seem to suffer from depression. Instead he seems to suffer from self-deprecation / low self-evaluation.

    I find this argument false. God did not sacrifice his son for one person. He sacrificed his son for hundreds or thousands of billion people who would come to live on earth after his death.

    Hey brothers and sisters..

    It is a good thing you apologized to your friend. Relationships are important. And welcome to the forum.

    Help with getting back on the narrow path

    I, too, have lived in sin in the past. But I do not tell myself that I absolutely need God's acceptance. It is not something that I can control. I believe one should not obsess over something that is out of one's control. I believe that God is not fond of me, either. I suspect that I am getting...

    I don't want to be alone

    No, I do not suffer from depression. It is true that I am quite lazy and hesitate to try new things, but it is not like I am unable to put any effort in things that are beneficial to me. I am not a shut-in, either. I have a work place that is closed right now because of the ongoing crisis. It is...

    I don't want to be alone

    @the one and only zero @Consolation Thank you both for the offer, but I am not looking for online friends. I already have a few, but they don't fill the void I feel... I admit that I was not happy about some posts here, and that might have resulted in me to "have an attitude that puts people...

    I don't want to be alone

    Thank you for your reply! I feel like you are one of the few people who understand me. I never thought about raising a dog. It seems too difficult for me.

    I don't want to be alone

    Haha, I always get that suggestion. And I try to get a therapist, but something always comes up, and I am unable to do therapy. Yes, maybe I will try to find one again. Good night...

    I don't want to be alone

    I don't know what is the reason. Maybe I can change things. But I don't know how. I just wanted to talk about my pain. I do not really expect things will change. I do not really expect people to help me get out of this mess.

    I don't want to be alone

    I was not exactly saying that to you specifically, but to everyone.

    I don't want to be alone

    Since I opened a thread, I guess results are important. Of course, the most effective way is to think that I have the ability to change things. That things are not the way I want, because I did things the wrong way. But I am not perfect. I cannot stay motivated despite constant failure. I...

    I don't want to be alone

    It is not an attitude. It is a fact. People do not stay away from me because of some attitude I have. Also, I am not an introvert.

    I don't want to be alone

    There are things in this world where effort alone is not enough.

    I don't want to be alone

    I meant that I lack the ability to befriend people. I never get close to people. We always stay strangers.
