  • 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

    Every year, I take a considerable amount of time to learn about a new denomination. This year is dedicated to the Anabaptists

    I hope your explorations include actual visits to worship with the groups you are studying. It is enlightening to see and experience how others worship. Over one year, I once took one Sunday a month to worship with a different tradition. It was both an adventure and clarifying about what I...

    ICE

    I voted "no." For me, it is not the mission I object to, it is the tactics employed. I don't want to live in a "papers please" society where people are profiled for the color of their skin by militarized masked men deployed against political enemy states, not those politically aligned states...

    Mob who stormed Cities Church told kids their parents were 'Nazis' who were 'going to burn in Hell': affidavit

    I think they should have said what they wanted to say from a picket line on the sidewalk, and not inside the church to disrupt worship there.

    RFK Jr. says it may be "better" if fewer children receive the flu vaccine

    Sadly, I think the CDC has been politicized and I can no longer trust our own government agency, either. I will rely on advice of my physician and the World Health Organization that I believe still has some integrity and credibility.

    Is Fiction Becoming Fact?

    Given that we have the best government money can buy and since our leaders have already been bought by corporate interests, I believe capitalism will prevail to prevent blue laws. If there is anything we care about more than God, guns and Apple pie it's making money. Corporate greed is king.

    Anyone up for a chat thread?

    I wonder if there is a market for long thermal underwear in liturgical colors? It could be the next big thing in clerical garb. :scratch:

    What Did You Get Last Sunday?

    I always take the chalk but never end up chalking my door. Am I a bad Episcopalian? Should I seek a lower parish without chalk? :sorry:

    Trump admin. revises 'food pyramid' to prioritize protein, veggies; Americans urged to 'eat real food'

    I was in the butcher shop before Christmas. I could not believe the price per lb. of meat. I'm not sure America can afford that pyramid, especially with U.S. cattle production now at all-time low.
