  • 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.

    Recent developments and a dilemma...

    That sounds like a good idea, an atheist friend of mine said "The bible is the militant [atheist]'s best friend", though it gets a bit time consuming : P!

    Status Migraines

    I've never had a 'status migraine', and from the sounds of it I'm glad, my memory's bad enough as it is! My advice to you would be get yourself some med's from the doctors' and if they don't do you any good get a different kind, as a migraine sufferer myself I know what it's like, having to dash...

    Recent developments and a dilemma...

    Thanks again for all the replies, I've come to a decision, for now at least. I'm going to remain an atheist. You see, the problem I've had with accepting the logic behind Christianity is that I'm a very logical person, I think a lot about what I choose to do or believe and at the moment I can't...

    Recent developments and a dilemma...

    'Sup chums! Earlier tonight (hang on, that's yesterday...) (in the UK of course) I had a strange feeling come over me. For the last two years or so I've been what I like to call a militant atheist, I'd happily argue with anyone who displayed the slightest trace of religion and ended up living...

    Buddhist GF

    Insulting as this will sound, that's what we call a faux pas. It seems rather obvious that telling the girlfriend that you love that she's going to hell is a silly thing to do, especially when you look at the flip side of it. Does she tell you that you're going to be reincarnated as a goat? or a...

    Kind of a end times computer question.....

    It's going to be Windows Vista, service pack 3! The evil of windows combined with the foul ups of service packs are bound to be brought about by the devil's return (I gather that's what's meant to happen)... I jest of course. Nobody can be sure because: a) Nobody's sure when (or if I may be...

    Here's an ambigous one: Why Christianity?

    Right'o chaps, as some of you may know from my introduction thing I'm an atheist looking to give Christianity a fair chance (not a shot, I'm not convinced about god or prayer just yet)... I suppose what I'm asking for here are the reasons that you've chosen to live out your time on earth as a...

    I crashed...please pray

    Hey there! I can't express how much I feel for you, both my father and step mother suffer from various degrees of depression. My step mum Sue crashed recently after having to leave her job. I spent last weekend at Dad's house with her just keeping her company and giving plenty of hugs when she...

    Greets!

    Hey chaps, I'll get this out the way now. I am not a Christian. I don't believe in the existence of god. And I don't believe in the power of prayer. I do however lead a moral life, I'm polite to those around me and am as helpful and understanding as I can be. "Why come here then you atheist...
