  • 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

    Voting for Harris and Walz is a Stand Against Authoritarianism and Hatred - Vote Harris/Walz 2024

    6 or 7 false indightments are all unraveling! Prosecutors travelled to meet with Harris from multiple venues around the country to coordinate illegal prosecutions. FBI identified as producing over 50 false statements in four fraudulent FISAs by a life-long Democrat inspector general POTUS...

    Social justice and biblical justice have nothing in common

    Articulately written. My comment would be that class division was the centerpiece wedge issue for the socialists since the 1780s. However, after the The Bolshevik revolution failed to sweep across Europe to engulf other western cultures besides Russia, a new form of Socialism began to develop...

    Balance?

    Not at all sure about this proposition. What does equal characteristics mean? I don't assume inequity has much at all to do with happiness. We find that 1.6 billion people have moved into the middle class since the 1990s due to the elimination of socialism in China (1975) and in India (1994?)...

    Free Will - God's test that all mankind flunks

    So you are saying what? Jesus is wrong to have stated this passage because it puts responsibility on man? "But YOU WERE NOT WILLING," seems to have a subject that is human and a verb form "to will." God (Jesus speaking) has longed ...so God desires but man was not willing. Again, this passage...

    A few questions for Protestants

    Why not both. Like Other Catholics and Protestants of the late 15th through mid-16th centuries the process for murdering your interlocutors was: 1- Get someone with some authority to declare your opponents view as heresy 2 - Declare your opponent a heretic 3 - Catch them 4 - Make them recant...

    A few questions for Protestants

    Here you have, I assume unintentionally, given us a trick question. Your problem is due to limits of human knowledge. Descartes gives us some reasons we should doubt "absolute assurance," about things as important as an external world, other minds (other people exist), and the reality of the...

    Free Will - God's test that all mankind flunks

    Since I've made no claims about causes but rather the freedom to use rationality in our decision making, this seems like a strawman. Calvin in his Institutes describes the world being a result of God's providence rather than human action, and so there are no free acts, period. Luther's focus...

    Why doesn't God directly stop the evil of others?

    I think we may have to get caught up in philosophy (also known as rationality). Premise 1 - The Bible contains God's knowledge that he considers helpful/necessary for humans to live the way God designed them to live. Premise 2 - The Bible is filled with subjunctive conditional statements (if...

    Why doesn't God directly stop the evil of others?

    Probably need a whole thread on this topic. So if your proposal above is true then the following statements would also seem to be true: Moral good or evil don't exist Love for parents, children, spouse or partner don't exist Rationality about the world and what is real doesn't exist Seems...

    Why doesn't God directly stop the evil of others?

    This was not my argument. I'm not justifying free will using knowledge of evil I'm assuming free will as axiomatic to love and agency in general. We don't have loving robots. Or computers that gain agency. All the things we consider to be the highest good are a function of an underlying...

    Can this disprove christianity?

    So perhaps we need to examine this idea a little more closely. No belief I assume is no official commitment to God or attendance in some organized religion. But one doesn't act with conviction on atheism. So if one literal has no belief in God, the resulting worldview must delete objective moral...

    The gift of tongues, a biblical defense of a most controversial gift.

    Here may be a good question for another post. It is controversial. I used to hold the Charasmatic view until now believe that all believers are Baptised by the HS and are partakers of his nature (origin of our new nature), and that what we witnessed in Acts 13-19, especially 19), was an...

    The gift of tongues, a biblical defense of a most controversial gift.

    I call the latter words of knowledge if the pictures have to do with the current, or past. These same pictures attend future prophetic gifting. Finally, God uses pictures sometimes when I'm praying for deliverance..

    The gift of tongues, a biblical defense of a most controversial gift.

    My wife and I were in LA a couple months back. Ran into an individual that thought that the moon landing was fabricated not far from the West Hollywood apartment we were visiting. I asked about the men who claimed to be there and land, the samples, the other evidence? All faked he said and then...

    The gift of tongues, a biblical defense of a most controversial gift.

    "The church, as the house of God, ... enjoys the goods which adorn God’s house: divine conversation, sacred instruction, and the [charismata] of the Holy Spirit. Among them are the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, faith, healings, and tongues.” Eusebius, “Commentary on Psalms, 64:5-9...
