  • 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

    Magic

    Okay...I think people are forgetting that The Bible does not only warn of witchcraft, but of wizardry, as well. I feel wizardry is the link people are forgetting about, and the type of magic they seem to be practicing in Harry Potter is much closer to the kind they use in wizardry. And another...

    Magic

    I know this topic has been covered numerous times, but I thought I'd ask anyway... what is your opinion on the use of magic in today's television, movies, books and video games? Do you think it is an exception because the magic The Bible speaks of has to do with the use of casting spells...

    Question about the "neanderthals"

    I have a question for Christians here who do not believe in evolution... how do you explain the neanderthals? I heard they never existed, and the "reamains" were a hoax. So how do other Christians who don't believe in evolution explain this?

    Santa

    I was raised with the belief of a Santa, and I thought it was a fun little game, but now I don't agree with it. Don't you think it is all a big lie? And don't forget the Ten Commandments: Thou Shalt Not Lie.

    Magic and Christianity

    First of all, look up the definition of "sorcery" (which has the same meaning as "witchcraft", just so there is no confusion in that area...if you don't believe me, look them up) Okay, now look up the definition of "magic"... it is basically the use of spells, rituals, etc. And finally, look at...

    Falling Away...

    Okay, well I'm not exactly sure where the verse is located, but I know The Bible says something like "anyone who has been enlightened by the Holy Spirit and then falls away, cannot be forgiven." I've heard different translations from this, but I was curious about what other people thought about...

    If all Mormons are Christians, then all Christians are Mormons

    If you deny all the Mormon basics, and believe in your heart that their ideas are false, then why continue to call yourself a Mormon? I mean, if someone called themselves a Christian, but didn't even believe in God, should they still call themselves a Christian? No, I don't think they should...

    Wicked: The life and times of the wicked witch of the west.

    The author's name is Gregory Maguire and I've never personally read it, but my best friend read it a year ago, and I remember her reading some certain *ahem*parts from it. It's definitely not a novel I plan on reading. I'm not trying to critisize it, but I'm not a big fan of books that use...

    Is Diablo 2 okay to play for christians

    I was, believe it or not, in your very same position just months ago, with the very same game. Every moment I had, I'd be on the computer, playing Diablo 2. When I got home from school... it was straight to the computer, and the same concept on the weekends I thought the whole basis of the game...

    Evolution is an elaborate fairy tale

    What is "YEC"? And also, I don't agree that most Christians believe in evolution. In fact, I have only met one, and that person happened to be 12-years-olds. And I have expecially never been to a church preaching pro-evolution beliefs, but only against it. I wasn't implying that anyone was ever...

    If the flood never happened...

    Are you sure all of the major pyramids were made from sandstone? I've heard that there are actually water stains that rise to the top of the pyramids, proving that there had to have been a great flood at some time. Think about it... if the people who had constructed them were intelligent enough...

    Evolution is an elaborate fairy tale

    I don't see how that statment makes sence. You say you don't care how God made things, yet you choose to believe in evolution. I agree with you in a way... I believe God made everything, and that is as far as I care to go with it. I do not, however,in any way believe in evolution, and find it...

    Atheism - a religion?

    Are you saying God controled Hitler's mind to commit those acts of murder? Have you not heard of free will? God lets us make our own choices, and Hitler chose to do what he did. Or otherwise, you are saying that when the unsaved and sinners who are not sorry for what they do are about to be...
