  • 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

    I'm a recovering addict...

    Last time around it WAS terrible. It's just that I think it would have been even worse if the "progressiveness" theory is true. Supposedly I was supposed to be as bad off as if I had kept drinking for those 6 years. It that was true it would have killed me.

    So Monty says, "Ok, then! It's a good thing you didn't choose the donkey! So what will you do, stay with your choice or choose the other door?" The contestant, dressed in a hot and heavy oversized bee costume becomes very excited and falls over having a heart attack. The paramedics rush in...

    I'm a recovering addict...

    Chilehed, that's interesting. How involved with NA are you, now? Here's my history. I started using drugs and drinking at 17, and eventually sort of outgrew most of the drugs. I just lost interest in that stuff. The few times I did coke, I did not get high. I only got a craving for more...

    This reminds me of the Marilyn VonSavaunt (sp) controversy regarding the "Let's make a deal!" problem. As stated by Ms VS, Monty gives you a choice of three doors, one of which contains a fabulous new car, and the other two contain donkeys and rocks and such. You make a choice, and Monty has...

    So then, what's the total number of natural numbers? 2x infinity, or 3x infinity?

    Odd

    Every natural number greater than 1 is a sum of two lesser natural numbers. There are three possiblilities in addition; an even plus an even equals an even, an even plus an odd equals an odd, and an odd plus an odd equals an even. In two of three cases the result is an even number. Therefore...

    alcoholism

    Destiny78 It is not important for you to accept some label in order to improve your life. You recognize that you are better off without alcohol, and yet still have a desire to drink. That's a great start. You probably realize that after two weeks, you feel better in all aspects. You...

    Nehemiah_Center, I am referring directly to this statement: "I know many "church" people hate AA and call it religion and what not, and in doing so condemn many to what is obvioiusly much worse - a life of drunkeness, inprisonment and hospitalization...." So, my question is; have you had...

    alcoholism

    That's a very interesting statement. Is that an educated opinion only, or do you have statistical/anecdotal evidence? Nothing wrong with stating your opinion, but I'd really like to see hard evidence of that. In fact I'd like to see some real, hard, evidence about all aspects of recovery...

    Monsanto

    There is also the problem of seed monopolies. They are making sure that farmers cannot save a portion of their crop for seeds. The farmers are totally reliant on the corporations for their seed. Many of the hardy natural strains are gone or in very short supply. Any number of disasters could...
