  • 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

    My scientific evidence challenge.

    Really? You mean most of the authors of religious books describe their own experiences? Can you give details? I don't know all the religions very well, but what I read from the Quran, I remember it tooks ideas from the Bible. From what I read in Wikipedia, the book of Mormons tells stories...

    My scientific evidence challenge.

    Didn't know that. I'm not sure you read what I wrote very carefully. The discussion about being foolish was just an aside, not the core of my argument. You're not keen on history, are you? 1/ References? 2/ Truth is gained by majority vote? 3/ show me an unbiased study on that question...

    My scientific evidence challenge.

    There are 23 pages of comments and I'm too lazy to find your definition for "scientific evidence", I'm sorry. My faith is not based on scientific evidence, in any case. It is based on some historical evidence, and a personal experience of the reality of God. My own testimony surely wouldn't...

    My scientific evidence challenge.

    This is a bold statement. I'd like to see some references to support it. To me the single fact that christianity *exists* proves that Jesus has risen from the dead (I wouldn't call that directly evidence, because it requires a bit of thinking, though). As Paul stated, if Christ is not risen...

    Help! What Should I do?

    You shouldn't worry too much about it. If you let God get full control of your life, you can expect he won't do everything as you think it should go. Expect some surprises. Only worry about living with Christ, for Christ. Some people told me I should "pray for my future husband, even before I...

    Help! What Should I do?

    This doesn't sound right. It sounds like the burden falls doubly on the woman, who shares in the work of her husband (as a pastor's wife can't but help him, hospitality, visits, caring for all the people etc.), and must still work full-time. That's 2 full-time jobs for the woman. That can't...

    If women shouldn't speak at all in church....

    Hello JustaUser, Indeed looking into the greek might be helpful. What I know is the Bible reports *a lot* of what some women have said throughout biblical history -- so when studying the Bible, you might actually find yourself studying the words of women, often inspired by God (as Anne...

    Salut!

    Salut, Le message est un peu ancien, est-ce que tu as trouvé quelqu'un depuis tout ce temps ? Le plus simple est de trouver quelqu'un dans ton entourage pour pouvoir parler avec. Sinon, je te conseille de commencer à lire en français dès que tu peux, c'est un très bon moyen d'enrichir son...

    What do French people eat?

    I think something that might surprise people is that most of the time we get three course meal: entrée, plat, dessert. Maybe not when eating at home, where we can skip the entrée or insert the fromage after the plat at will, but at the cafeteria at work or in the restaurant, it is very typical...

    Meilleur traduction du Bible en francais?

    Bonjour Begat, Effectivement, il paraît que Segond était libéral. Mais la Segond reste une version suffisamment littérale pour rester populaire parmi les plus fondamentalistes. Elle a été révisée plusieurs fois, mais même la version de 1910 n'est pas dans un langage désuet -- juste du...

    Being single (pathetic)

    Maybe you should just start reading your Bible and dedicate your life to God. Think you live for God and not for yourself. Start considering other people's problems and try to help them. I find reading the Psalms refreshing when i feel depressed. Count the blessings you have.

    Pastoresses

    Bonjour, Je pense que c'est répandu chez les protestants réformés. Chez les Baptistes, cela va dépendre des courants. Je pense qu'il y a actuellement 2 courants principaux. 1/ l'Alliance Baptiste de France (ABF), et 2/ L'Association évangélique d'Églises baptistes de langue française (AEEBLF)...

    Europe and Islam

    That might well be. In France, they're now about 5 millions i think (total 64 millions). Whatever. They need the gospel as much as the other europeans.
