  • 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 kept praying the people will wake up and kick all the bums out! Then I realized, any replacements would most likely also be republicans or democracts and I gave up in dispair!! OleAg

    Delaware Catholics To Get Their First Married Priest

    I've always wondered how a celebate priest could advise me on marriage if he never had to live with a woman?? Come to think on it, how could any full time preacher counsel me on honesty if he never had to turn down a kick-back in the workplace?? HUMMM, didn't Paul make a living as a...

    Pro-Evolution Clergy Sign Letter Affirming Faith in Darwin's Theory

    My point EXACTLY! If you can't trust Gen 1 - Gen 11 would someone please tell me how in the world you can trust John 3:16?? And don't even try the old "simple" explanation for a "simple" people routine..its been shot down to many times. OleAg

One world church...merge them all...Christian, pagan, wickin (sp?)...your OK, I'm OK...the only sin is saying there IS sin...Give me the OLD TIME religion...it was good enough for Saul of Tarsus, its...

    Peter IS the Rock of the Church of Jesus

    Don't have time for a detailed critique of the Peter-Rock info presented below, but here's what I do know: 1. In Acts 2 when Peter preached the first gospel sermon - he had the perfect chance to claim leadership/overall authority and have it sealed by the Holy Spirit who had visibly fallen on...

    Devil's Advocate?

    Well, I know why I wouldn't...simply put I can not in good consciense advocate something I don't believe in. That's why I could never be a lawyer, I could never defend someone who is guilty... OleAg

    Who is a true Christian?

    "If you love me, keep my commandments" John 14:15. So, might it logically follow that true Christians are those who keep his commandments? Ah, but there's the rub, what ARE his commandments? Do they include "doctrine"? Do they include baptism? Ask and ye shall receive. OleAg

    This bugs me...the chosen people

    Basically theme of the Bible is: Somebody is coming; Somebody is here; Somebody is coming again. The "Jews" where "Chosen" so that the lintage of Christ, the Last Adam (who abolished sin), could be positively tied to and traced back to the First Adam (Who introduced sin). The NT even uses this...

    World's end!!

    "when you see all these things begin to come to pass, know that it is near even at the doors" from Lynn73 below: This is from Matt 24 - but who was he talking to? And how would THEY have understood that statement?? BYE

    World's end!!

    Statement of fact that is sure to boil some peoples blood, but here goes: The Revelation is HISTORY not PROPHECY! The best book I ever read on it took the preacher 35 years to research and write (and he never made a dime off it). In 1967 I sat in Linwood Baptist Church in Shreveport LA and...

    Is the Church of Christ Semi-Pelagian?

    Such big words, I had to look it up. Don't know about ALL CofC, so many have been liberalizing in the last few years, but we mostly reject "faith alone". As a former Baptist, I certainly understand that faith alone doctrine...but, it can't hold up under some simple common sense examination...

    How do you use these things

    Ok, "ole " in my user name says it all. I hate computers (when I took my ONE computer class in college - we were still using punch-cards!!) and consider myself computer illiterate. I have succeeded in reigistering and have read the rules but could someone send me some hints on navigating this...
