  • 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.

    I see no point in meeting people

    Hi Joshua, I know it may take time to get there, but I suggest you see yourself differently. I have had many odd personality issues that have hindered me. Last November God spoke to my heart and told me three amazing words that are still transforming my life today. He said, " Believe you're...

    Hi Vanilla, you're not alone because God is with you. I know what it's like to feel invalidated and invisible. Maybe there are no easy and quick answers for you, but I know that God has helped me to work through many of my issues and come to a new place in life. You can work through yours too...

    Hi Jordan, reaching out for help on this site is a great desicion you've made. I'll bet if you stop and think about it there are plenty of great decisons you make every day. In fact, just because things don't work out according to how you plan doesn't mean you have no value or even that you...

    Hi, I don't know if you trust your Doctor or not, but if you do you could be honest with them about this as this is a health issue. Otherwise perhaps see another Doctor or specialist to discuss this with? Take acre

    Feeling like I have failed too many times

    Hi, I noticed to said you felt like you had failed TOO many times. By saying this you are placing a limit on yourself that God has not placed on you. Be kind to yourself. God is not waiting impatiently for you to work this out. He's here with you AS you work this out. It's Okay to be a work in...

    Want to stop smoking weed...?

    Hello, thank you for asking for help. I hope you find some really helpful stuff here. I would say think twice about talking to a priest unless you have been personally recommended to do so and that they are trustworthy. Many of them will only judge and condemn you rather than listen to you. What...

    Bible verses to fight cravings

    Hey buddy, good on you for being open with us! And honest. Yes Revelation talks on a plant being used for healing of nations and Marijuana is medicinal, but i don't believe this is what God wants for you. I really love how you are open minded as a Christian. That can go a long way with God...

    Ive been saved by God, but I want drugs.

    Hi buddy, you're not alone. Your answer probably is not as simple as stop doing it. Getting good help can be of benefit. What has worked for me is not to focus on stopping bad/unhelpful behavior, but rather to focus on building a great relationship with God. You may have underlying issues that...

    Am I going to live in alone for the rest of my life?

    Hello, I recommend going somewhere private with God to sort this out between you and Him. Talk about the real issues here and be honest with Him and share your heart. Be open to what He says or shows you.

    Struggling with Homosexuality

    I understand why you don't want to be hated. God doesn't hate you. Think about it - spend time with Him to discover His love and acceptance of you. You're His kid. He's a perfect God. How can He be perfect and push you away? How can He love you perfectly like the Bible says He does and want you...

    How much alcohol do you have to consume to kill braincells?

    Hello, people said that Jesus was a drunk because He drank wine. This is in the Gospels. He wasn't a drunk obviously. I also back up the other person saying that alcohol does not damage brain cells. This is a myth. I believe drinking the amounts you drink are fine from as health perspective...
