  • 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

    Wedding question....

    It can probably be waived depending on how much of a stickler the priest is, but you could always give it the good college try to make sure he sees you're putting in a good-faith effort.

    Pope Francis 'stunned' by abortion rate in Spain...

    When the proponent of the statement lacks any cognizable background lending weight to the credibility of the statement. The second paragraph is likely indefensible; the third I just need statistics, but I always thought we gave foreign aid that did not consist chiefly of military presence.

    Another Bishop Picked Up for Drunk Driving

    Oh, was that the point? I lost my way somewhere around when priests were likened to members of Congress w/r/t quality of life.

    Another Conservative Attack on Mrs. Clinton

    I still think it's tu quoque.

    Another Bishop Picked Up for Drunk Driving

    Yeah. I mean even if he was acting in an official capacity even that wouldn't guarantee that a respondeat theory would hold. That detour vs frolic distinction muddies the waters a bit.

    Another Bishop Picked Up for Drunk Driving

    Something tells me the Bishop didn't get drunk by having a little too much of the Sacrament at Mass. Respondeat won't apply. But it is nice having someone here versed in legal matters for situations like this.

    Meaning of the word "host" in "Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts"

    Yeah, this was my point. I don't know what Fantine thought I said.

    Columbus Diocese Takes Heat for Firing Lesbian Teacher

    Maybe nobody called you out on this because it's not of huge consequence, but since you made this assertion twice, bro, her mom died. Her partner is still alive. Or maybe I'm reading stuff really, really poorly at this hour.

    Meaning of the word "host" in "Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts"

    You don't like the translation that better tracks with the direct terminology used in the Scripture?
