  • 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

    What wrong idea about depression would you most like to set straight?

    I need to see this thread today. None of my Christian friends understand that this ISN'T a choice for me. That I would love to be happy and joyful instead of thoughts of death constantly wrapped around me. I hate other believer's telling me that if i draw closer to Jesus I will be okay...

    what are you feeling right now? (24)

    I feel like I am drowning. And I don't know why. Sometimes I think that a physical drowning would be less painful then this mental metaphysical one. At least a physical drowning ends. Or your saved. This has no end in sight and no one to "save" me

    despair

    one foot in front of the other. You got this. Let yourself be quiet for a moment, take a breath and then go on. As one who also suffers from Bipolar, i realize that things are going to come around in cycles. Learn your cycle. Prepare for it. Tell your loved ones around you so they can prepare...

    The nanny is coming back?!?! Please not with Fran Dresser... I can still hear her laugh 25 years later. *shudder* Though, i remember watching that one with my Mum... maybe for TGIF nights? Back when ABC (I think) had a bunch of shows like that on every Friday. It was my fav night growing up

    Dating

    Not gonna lie everyone. This thread has me shaking in my boots so to speak. Cause I am thinking from the male's end as well. As a single mother (i made a few wrong choices when I was younger) my biggest fear is that I will never find a good, strong, Godly man for reasons brought up in this very...

    Hey Ladies i have a question, do you can help me out ?

    I can't help you much cause I can barely walk flat on the floor without tripping and ending up on crutches (I kid you not, it has happened) But I do know you can learn. and what little advice I can give is this: go for rounded toe before trying those pointy toe madness.. the round toe will feel...
