  • 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

    Why Is Knowledge Itself Considered Coercive?

    :wave: Hi and welcome Arthra - perhaps I was unclear, and perhaps you slightly misread. I was referring to the multitude of beliefs in a plurarity of Gods that existed prior to Christianity. Sorry Arthra, but I am always "lost for words" at moments like this. ANYTHING that does not exist...

    Why Is Knowledge Itself Considered Coercive?

    :wave:Hi and welcome Arthra wrote: Interestingly, 1,250 odd years BEFORE Christianity, Akhenaten, the Egyptian Pharoah, said exactly the same thing with his monotheistic faith; Christianity relying heavily upon an already existent pagan concept. The Baha'i faith also seems to take for...

    Am I an atheist?

    :wave: Hi and welcome :wave: Oh, such confusion, to which I must add my own mental deliberations. Oh, such confusion! Where do I stand? Gnosis, as in knowledge. Does it really matter what you BELIEVE, if the knowledge to hand informs us that ALL pagan Gods prior to Christianity were silent...

    quick way to prove creation

    :wave: Hi and welcome "And God said . . . . .etc . . etc" We get this of course, from the Bible. So, according to humans, "God said . . . . etc . . etc" So, according to humans, apparently God said many things, but interestingly, none of it included what a God was. This was apparently...

    quick way to prove creation

    :wave: Hi and welcome :wave: I've used the above quotes to highlight the inaccuracies in the views expressed in response. The following from the originator of this thread, highlight the same. Secret of Fatima In laymans terms, creation never was, this being the fundamental error in...

    The application of the Scientific Method to Religion

    :wave:Hi and welcome Well, I've done it. I ploughed through all nine pages, and I'm still awake. Sure, I digressed towards a well earned cup of tea and consideration of the nature of my interjection. I hope my examples though, will aid towards the meaninglessness of the majority of the...

    Pope Bans Homosexual activity

    :wave: Hi and welcome Written by Rossi: Hmmn? Completely wrong, and with no supporting evidence? Similar to? Not the same, then. Bordering on? Ditto. Eugenics, the term coined by Francis Galton, was never instigated with coercion, rather, the bioengineering of better human beings, something...

    "allah" and Christian/Judea God??

    :wave: Hi and welcome Let's try and clear some air here. Muhammed claimed that he received revelations from the Angel Gabriel - NOT from God. The first time the Angel Gabriel is ever mentioned is in the Biblical Book of Daniel, whilst he was imprisoned in Sumeria. The Sumerian God El, with...

    "allah" and Christian/Judea God??

    :wave: Hi and welcome Always such misinterpretation and confusion, no doubt caused by such strong belief and not reality. I shall use Elwill's comment to kick off: Elohim is NOT the Hebrew word for God; Baal is NOT the Cannanite word for a God, and Allah is NOT the singular name for a God...

    Pope Bans Homosexual activity

    :wave:Hi and welcome I was confronted the other day, by some guy collecting for an Asthma society, who I had been watching for some 30 minutes or so. "You're not having much luck are you" I stated, to which he replied that he was sure that I could help to alleviate that situation by donating a...

    Pope Bans Homosexual activity

    :wave: Hi and welcome, I only caught a snippet of this on the news, but it seems that the Pope is saying that Homosexual activity should be discouraged. I really do not understand this at all, particularly as his thinking seems to be that male and female are gender that should be preserved as...

    intelligent discussion

    :wave: Hi and welcome Interesting this LOZ. After all, just how much free will do we have? Our decisions are based upon our educational and environmental experiences, which no doubt leaves me in a different position to you. I cannot choose to do something of which I know nothing, resultantly...

    intelligent discussion

    :wave: Hi Solarwave Interesting thought, as conjecture always is. However, if one wishes to consider hereditary genes, then I imagine it to be reasonably conclusive that education is not one of them, innate or otherwise. We are born naked intellectually, and it is only through our...
