  • 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

    Late Bloomer

    Your post is giving me much hope. I am 50 and in a job that I have no passion for, but feared being to old to start something new. Seeing your post has energized me to get more serious in pursuit of a new job/career/calling that I can have a passion for and excites me every day. Thanks!

    Political Witch Hunts: When is proof of accusations needed?

    It would take something more than an accusation. Everyone deserves their chance to defend themselves. In a case like Bill Cosby, the evidence convicted him. In the Duke Lacrosse team case, the evidence proved them innocent. I agree with you that if a SCOTUS nominee is a slimeball, he would get...

    Political Witch Hunts: When is proof of accusations needed?

    We are in real trouble when just accusing someone of wrongdoing is enough to "convict" them. Innocent until proven guilty is one of the things that separates the US from many other countries. The problem now is that too many people are worried more about right and left than in right and wrong.

    The Evils Of Facebook

    I am five days off Facebook, and I am finding that I do not miss it. Sure, the first couple of days I found myself going there totally out of habit, but resisted. I was finding myself getting upset at things I was seeing, but going back for more. My anxiety would come on from worrying what...
