  • 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

    The Complete List of President Trump's Accomplishments

    ok ok, I was wondering also. So then maybe we would simply have to agree to disagree about whether there is such a strong link between climate and environment.

    ascribing to yourself superpowers that you do not have. How on earth (pun not intended) would you go about that? Boil some water and throw it into the ocean?

    The Complete List of President Trump's Accomplishments

    "climate" is the 30 year average of the weather. "environment" is what is in the soil, like what should be there and what should not be there. I avoid dropping batteries or plastic or other stuff in the wrong places. That is good precaution. But the climate - man, that is simply the weather...

    The Complete List of President Trump's Accomplishments

    So this "make America great again" Did he do it? Did the average economic outlook for an american improve as a result of initiatives that Trump conducted? Maybe hard to estimate, since we learned that Biden rolled back most of what Trump had done

    The Complete List of President Trump's Accomplishments

    can you elaborate on this for a non-american? In my country, there has been a severe anti-Trump media coverage for his whole presidential term. So the facts about how it went for USA are not well known to us here in Denmark.

    Queen of Heaven?

    I had a friend who stated that he never wanted anything to do with the sacraments. I guess and hope he didnt know what he was talking about

    Queen of Heaven?

    Having been evangelical for 23 years before I converted to catholicism, I have a desire to respond to this. But realizing that you may not be at the point where all this is relevant, it will be a sketched answer only. You state in your sidebar that you are "christian", which on this forum would...

    Sunday Is Not the Sabbath

    I cannot get the text that you are quoting here, so there is no way to confirm the veracity of your words, or to establish how much of it is direct quote and how much is your rewording. Sunday is the day that Jesus rose from the dead, and thereby fulfilled his work for us (Romans 4:35). So...

    Sunday Is Not the Sabbath

    You already know the answer. The sabbath is no longer a mandatory day off. Jesus did not require it in the NT. He did require the other 9. How could this be difficult? p.s. you probably do not need to answer the question which is more like rhetorical. Because I know full well what the sda's...

    Sunday Is Not the Sabbath

    Funny thing that sda's (seventh day adventists) are better versed in what the catholic church believes than I am. I stick to the Bible. And I have probably said it before, but ... the catholic church is the church that provides the best fit to the Bible as I know it until now

    Queen of Heaven?

    Right, so my original postulate is that what people think of as the catholic "tradition", really refers to 100's of years of church fathers interpreting scripture, and coming to some kind of level in understanding scripture. So now you want to point to salvation as an issue where supposedly the...

    Queen of Heaven?

    Another point which you probably have not yet seen, is that when Jesus calls Mary "woman", it is not a statement of disrespect, rather it refers back to Genesis 3:15. Mary is the woman whose seed shall crush the head of the serpent. So be careful when interpreting "woman" in NT. Also here...

    Queen of Heaven?

    And the gospel of John, written around year 100, 57 years after Marys death in the year 43 according to the sources we have. Why would John in any way waste his time to mention Mary? Writing was expensive in those days. You wouldnt want to waste paper there. Here is a resource on the cost of...
