  • 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 disturbed...

    In reply to Cappadocian's post immediately above; I am truly sorry that that has been the reality of your experience with men, and although I cannot speak for all men (I know about two men in total who don't act the way you've described), I know that there are a few of us who, though feeling...

    What was your first opera?

    I have yet to attend an opera live, but the first opera I listened to in its entirety was Wagner's Lohengrin (or was it Mozart's Don Giovanni? Either way, you can't go wrong :thumbsup: ) Peace, -Justin

    teenagers who listen to classical music

    I too am greatly enthused to see such interest in classical music among my fellow teenagers. I've been listening on and off since I was about 12, but only this summer have I been really paying attention to and reading up on various composers and their works. For instance, four months ago I...

    Speaking of YES... I just coincidentally discovered this thread moments after I had turned on "Siberian Khatru." Talk about your great "crank up the speakers" songs :cool: Peace, -Justin

    You Are All Bound For The Hellfire Of Damnation!!!

    Umm, in case anyone hasn't quite noticed, the subject of this thread is entirely (and succcesfully I might add) satirical. -Justin

    Lennon or Mccartney?

    I voted Lennon, all the way :thumbsup: . Not, however, to the detriment of Paul, as it is indeed true their best music came through collaborative efforts. I just find that Lennon is much more focused on textured, engaging and remarkably artistic music/lyrics (a la I am the Walrus, Dear Prudence...

    The Beatles

    Regardless of anyone's misgivings regarding the Beatles, I think we must all agree on one point; that their influence on rock n roll and indeed all mainstream music of the later twentieth century was pivotal, revolutionary and iconic. That is to say, although many underground movements were...

    Pink Floyd, anyone?

    Ooh, Floyd........... :thumbsup: Favourite Album: Dark Side of the Moon (not too original, I know, but I had never heard a thing off the album except money until just over a month ago) Favourite Song: Tie between Shine on you crazy diamond and Wish you were here Favourite Solo: ooh...

    Why secular music is wrong for kids, it leads to the bitter root of debauchery.

    *reads OP, shakes head, throws on Led Zeppelin CD* Peace and love, -Justin p.s. But seriously, secular music is not all of one variety and subliminal message; I happen to listen to much classical music and many types of modern secular music for the actual technical value of the music...
