  • 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

    this forum is often unkind

    I think he has a good point. And if this forum has more unkindness than other forums, that's not something to just overlook! I think at least a good part of it though is the sheer size of this forum; this isn't exactly a tightly-knit community here. That means to the average user, typing...

    the world can't tolerate unfairness anymore

    It would help if you could give some examples of "laws prohibiting free spiritual religion" in modern first world countries and how this causes suffering.

    How much would it suck to be gay? You wouldn't have any God-sanctioned sexual outlet.

    Are other religions the work of Satan?

    So what you're saying is: -All have sinned and deserve to go to Hell -Jesus is the only way to go to heaven It follows that -Those who are unable to accept the gospel are unable to go to Heaven -Those who are unable to accept the gospel never had a chance to avoid hell And since having...

    Are other religions the work of Satan?

    Interesting. I have a hard time imagining a benevolent God punishing people for believing what sincerely seems right to them. How would you explain this?

    Are other religions the work of Satan?

    Over its vast history, humanity has given birth to a vast number of religions. Always looking for patterns that may or may not actually exist, often explanation gives rise to superstition. Occasionally, these superstitions strike a chord with a group of people, and as the superstition develops...

    Help!!! Homosexuality Vs The Bible

    I couldn't believe in a loving God that would send someone to Hell just for being who they are either. So then you have to honestly ask yourself the question: Are people really "gay"? Or is everyone actually the same with regards to sexuality? What do you think?

    Is Homosexuality a Choice?

    I didn't say there are no consequences for sinning. I said I don't see how something with no negative consequences could be considered sin. Actually, it is natural. I fail to see why it's obviously wrong, and why it's an abomination. Maybe you could elaborate. Just because he said he was led...

    Is Homosexuality a Choice?

    Oh really? What about the New Testament verses 1 Corinthians 14:34, and 1 Timothy 2:12: 1 Corinthians 14:34: " Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says." 1 Timothy 2:12: "I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume...

    Is Homosexuality a Choice?

    I'm not "choosing" to believe that homosexuality is benign. It's a forced conclusion. You can't be serious. To answer your question, Factor Analysis. We don't have to do an experiment for every particular cause-and-effect relationship if we can collect enough data to perform factor...

    Is Homosexuality a Choice?

    You should work on the reading comprehension skills. And the confirmation bias. (this). I gave examples of things written in the Bible objectively only relevant to the people who existed during the time it was written. You didn't disagree. (Hint: if you do disagree, that means you should be...
