  • 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.

    Scared of possession. Please help.

    I have had a fear of possession for a long time. It comes and goes, but if I read something about it or see a movie with something like that in it, it comes back. The other morning when I was waking up, this thought popped into my head "My name is Mylek." or "I am Mylek" or something like...

    Just want to let go!

    I too have struggled with OCD for years. Mine was really bad when I was home with my kids. It was the worst when I was home with my now 11 year old (and her sister who is now 13). And then it got really bad again when I was home with my now 2 year old. I just went back to work this September...

    Scared. Harm OCD is back.

    I haven't had harm OCD for 10 years and all of the sudden it was resurfaced. Well, I say "all of a sudden", but it was probably triggered by an event that happened to a student in my class. His dad did something horrifying that left him without both parents. And he saw it all. So I've been...

    Fear of husband being a child molestor

    This is by far the weirdest obsession I've ever had. My OCD has been bad lately and my obsessions have been changing rather rapidly. A little background... Last year, my 10 year old daughter went through a spell where she didn't want to sleep in her own room. She has always been afraid...

    Struggling with OCD

    What you describe is an extremely common form of OCD in christians. I have struggled with it myself. My OCD has taken a different form lately, but at the moment I am doing pretty well. After I was married a few years, I talked to my husband about these OCD thoughts I was having and he said...

    Prayer works

    I have still been struggling here and there with my latest OCD...fear of possession. Last night I read something on this forum in Ask a Chaplain that triggered me. I couldn't sleep. I was frightened and I started crying and praying. I prayed that God would speak to me and calm this fear...

    Swine Flu

    My daughter was the first person in our county to catch the Swine Flu in 2009 when it first came out. I started crying at the doctor. He told me that yes, it can get bad, but for the VAST MAJORITY of people it doesn't. She was fine. Also, maybe your doctor could start you on tamiflu if you...

    Swine Flu

    First of all, I'm saying a prayer for you right now. I have a fear of germs too (norovirus specifically) and I can definitely understand how you are feeling. Secondly, did you get a flu shot? The shot this year does protect against the swine flu.

    If I was possessed, would I know?

    I know this is my OCD talking again, but I've been having extreme body temperature swings. I read somewhere that this can be a sign of demon possession so now my OCD has latched onto it. Would I know if I was possessed?

    Worried my children will become possessed now...scared.

    Ok, I am done freaking out over this. I am safe. My husband is safe. My kids are safe because my husband and I are believers (right?). God loves us. I dedicated my children to God when they were babies and He loves them even more than I do (which is hard to imagine). And most of all...
