  • 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.

    The Real People Responsible For Abortion

    I agree with these two posts. We must not forget that men play a role in this, too...particularly if there is a woman involved in an abusive relationship who is beaten down and coerced into having an abortion, when in her heart she does not want one. I know this may be a hard notion for one with...

    Thinking of Homeschooling...

    Hi Dorothea :) I did my schoolwork at the local library, as well as at home. At the library (which I went to about 2-3 days per week), I would study in the "quiet" room at a big table. At home, I would do my schoolwork at the kitchen table, on the couch, or on the floor :D Wherever I was...

    I was right

    I think, possibly, that Islam is a true threat to the world. It's a very frightening thing :(

    Prayer request

    My advice, based on the little information I know, is to ask your priest what he thinks, but also don't completely disregard what your MIL says. She may be wrong, but it's better to error on the side of caution :)

    Thinking of Homeschooling...

    I was homeschooled from 9th through 12th grade. I did it through correspondence, so I earned a regular high school diploma. I loved it. I earned excellent grades, too. God willing, if I have children, I think I'll probably homeschool them.

    I was right

    Rainbowbright, I once had a co-worker try to convert me to Islam. She even gave me a quaran (spelling?) to read. I thumbed through it out of curiosity, but of course it went no further than that. That religion is very frightening. I pray for your husband and hope he pulls his head out of the...

    Head covering

    If a woman was to wear a covering to church, do you think she would get funny looks? Especially if no other women are wearing one? Would she be looked down upon?
