  • 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

    My In Laws hate me...

    ugh, I'm sorry, but I just wanted to 'correct' or 'expand' on a statement on what may be misleading about being Mexican. Yes parents are important, very important. But in the end, once married, the new spouses and the new child are supposed to be the most important to each other. I would...

    Attention OBOB

    I do want to add, that if your feeling a bit low or spiritually dry, this is something that really lifts.

    Attention OBOB

    I came to a couple of tears listening to this. Kimberly Hahn talks about the Vocation of being a Wife and Mother. You guys just have to listen until the end when the only (I think) caller calls. It's something that is just awesome. I don't want to spoil it for you now, but I would just...

    Catholicism wrong?

    To the OP, I'm sorry that your thread seems to have gone off kilter. I don't know, maybe you could start another thread with specific questions or continue in this one. I do have one suggestion. What really really really helped me was reading books and listening to tapes. I think it would...

    Dandalion Wine

    This is a shameless bump: and an apology for not spelling Dandelion correctly. :) On inspiration from one of the reviews @ Amazon, if you have a 12 yr. old, hand him/her this book.

    I do recommend one thing. Pray Pray Pray for God to send you someone. Pray for his well-being and his spiritual growth. This will help you tons, when it comes time to recognize the person God has sent you.

    Hispanic Catholics

    I just wanted to clarify my earlier post. In meaning it was sumrized that these lax parents were going to Mass probably as a cultural Catholic thing and they were a bit vague on the whole explanation of the Mass, not as a cultural Hispanic thing.....as most of my post pointed out, in almost...

    Hispanic Catholics

    I had a horrific experiance the first Mass I went to when I moved back here. It was a Spanish Mass and they were doing baby baptisms. I obliviously sat in the 'rowdy' section and just couldn't believe what was going on. It was only later when leaving the Mass when I saw that the other side of...
