  • 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.

    SmallVille

    man, that was a crazy episode. I do have to say this: Smallville does make the finales memorable. This is even crazier than last season's finale. Which, I did not think was possible. Where is clark now? Himalayas?

    "Revelations" - April 13th

    well, the baby is definitely an anti-christ. I only caught the 2nd half of the show. I kind of like this show. It makes me think. If nothing else, it does give me a half-imagery of some of the verses from the bible. At least, it challenges me to try to understand the revelation passages. As...

    American Idol

    I actually host a website on american idol. Generally speaking, the largest fan groups are Constantine, Carrie and Bo (in that exact order). Constantine will win, even though I don't think he can sing all that well.

    Rights of the Un-born

    A few things: I don't normally post here, but abortion is one of my favourite topics of discussion. Personally, I think abortion is wrong and it is a sin, but I think abortion should be legalized, because it is a woman's choice whether she wants to abort her child or not. Sure, many of the...

    Anyone watched the TV show "Revelations"?

    I'm not too sure where to post this, but I watched the show Revelations on NBC the other day. I'm not too sure how much the show follows the current day ideas/views toward end of the day. I guess my question is that whether a show like that is misleading me if I'm watching it or does it help...

    What's the difference between Calvin and Augustine?

    well, Borealis said that Calvin and Luther broke away from the church because they thought they were better than the church. I'm saying that's not the case.

    What's the difference between Calvin and Augustine?

    and may I say, selling indulgences is one of the worst things that the Catholic church ever did. Seriously, just look at some of the actions of the catholic church in that period. You have to admit that they weren't exactly Christianlike.

    What's the difference between Calvin and Augustine?

    that's the typical catholic view. Actually, the church at that time was quite corrupted from selling indulgences, avignon papacy (aka Babylonian captivity) and the Great Schism. Church was in trouble and Luther wanted nothing more than reform what's going on in the churches. Remember, the...

    Can a Person Lose Salvation?

    I think loosing salvation is possible only if you commit an act of heresy (which is basically intentionally ignoring the spirit). Remember, a sin against the spirit cannot be forgiven. Other than that, I subscribe to what Jesus said about the good shepherd and the sheep can never loose sight...

    Question bout "catholic" bibles

    Thank you, so do these extra books appear in the Torah? Where did they come from?

    Question bout "protestant" bibles

    I don't know. I just want to ask. Where are the 7 extra books? where do they come in between the 66 book version? I think the question is how we decided to use the books that we are using now. For example, there is still a sect of Christianity that hasn't accepted Revelations.

    Question bout "catholic" bibles

    Sorry, I'm not familiar with OT apocrypha. Where does Maccabees locate in the Jewish history? And what does it talk about? I'm sorry to ask so many questions, but I really would like to learn.

    Question bout "catholic" bibles

    Thank you, you are my hero. Just more questions. Which of the New Testament apocrypha are not part of NIV/NLT (which are the versions of bibles that I normally read)? I'm just wondering if there are books out there that I missed and should look over. Thank you.
