  • 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.

    What Are Your Personal Experiences?

I looked on the other side of the car, and noticed the damage above my passenger side rear...

    Can I request my child's baptism if we parents are living together and not married?

    Shouldn't it be your kids' decision if they want to be baptized? And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. - Mark 16:15 Are your children really able to fully grasp the Gospel message at such a young age?

    Is masturbation ok according to christianity?

    God recognizes sexual needs, which is why Paul says "To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single as I am. But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion." I masturbated a lot before converting...

    prayer for my messed up life right now?

    Here is an exercise that has helped me a lot: every single time you worry, pray. Over time you will learn to develop a reliance on God, and God alone. I've been through similar feelings as yourself. You don't know if God will help you, but if you see God as a loving parent, then you will realize...
