    American Catholics: More socially conservative?

    Note to mods: Please move this thread if it is not appropriate. During the American election I noticed that once again, American Catholics, at least the most outspoken ones, seem to be very conservative, to the point of voting against things like public school and universal healthcare...

    Dear Atheists and fundementalists

    I understand that many atheists have gone through a tough journey of enlightenment to come to the position you are. Many have studied religion, perhaps even most major religions, carefully, and come to the conclusion that you don't believe in God or gods. Many will bring this up, and act like...

    Harper to ask GG to set Oct. 14 as election date: sources

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/canadavotes/story/2008/08/31/harper-dion.html So PM Harper has decided to sneak an election in while a much larger and more controversial one is going on south of the border. In doing this, he is not keeping his promise of having an election in Oct 2009. Thoughts...

    Intersexed people and sexuality

    What are the morals and ethics surrounding those who are intersexed? Must they remain chaste? Do they go with their biological gender or their DNA gender? Or should they simply marry who they have a deep friendship and love with? Must they be trained to fit into either the "male" or "female"...

    Sola Scriptura? [OPEN]

    I have a question about Sola Scriptura. Yes, I know it's scripture alone. But which version? The earliest copies are not in English, but in the ancient languages. Why do so many who purport to be Sola Scriptura so often use the KJV, a translation that is known to be politically motivated...

    Judging who is Christian and who is not...

    I posted this over in the RIP CCC thread in the Conservative forum, and was asked in that thread if I posted it here too, as WWMC also can suffer from the same problems. I've had to add a bit to make it relevant to this forum, but I think it makes sense. I know that many of you are in pain...

    Conservatives and Double Standards?

    Why does it so often seem that, especially in the USA, conservatives want to put laws into effect that outlaw gay marriage, and cite the Bible for doing so, yet do not want to put into effect government programs that care for the outcasts, the meek, the sick, the children? The Bible has so...

    "AIDS Myth Exposed" Exposed as false

    Recently, a newspaper ran a story that stated that the HIV/AIDS epidemic was no longer a threat, that it was limited to homosexual behaviour, etc. The piece was little more than a propaganda piece. Here is the true WHO stance on HIV/AIDS: WHO Press Release Those who are poverty-stricken...

    Should Lawyers be able to Adopt?

    Should lawyers be able to adopt? That is the only relevant question. All other questions are irrelevant. This is in response to the question about whether the world's oldest profession should be able to adopt. So, questions regarding who the lawyer works for, if the lawyer has steady...

    Tiny bug

    Reagan's Legacy coming to fruition?

    With all the problems with airlines shutting down and admitting to missed maintance, to millions of children being uninsured, is now not the time to judge Reagan's impact on America? For years he has been lauded as one of the greats. Yet now, his policies are wearing thin. The full effects of...

    The ethics of gobbilygook and hollow rhetoric

    What are the ethics of gobbilygook? Would you rather have a person give a firm answer full of poppycock, or would you rather have a person look into a topic or admit that they just aren't the right person to ask? For instance, I've seen professors get angry not at the students who haven't...

    Is it pointless? Is it trolling? Is it foolish?

    Sometimes it feels totally useless and foolish to try and outreach and discuss issues with people of different denominations or political views... It now seems that many consider it trolling to just ask genuine, kind, gentle, honest questions or to be friendly... That the differences...

    I just applied to become a mod?

    Hi there :wave: I just applied to become a mod here at CF! This is my platform: I am a Christian who is not active in a church community but who does often attend church. I am Canadian and a supporter of the NDP, although I am not unsymathetic to many politically moderate and conservative...

    Do we need an icon?

    Do we, moderate and liberal Christians, need a special little icon, apart from our denominational and political icons, that show how exclusive we are? Do we need a special icon that will exclude those not carrying the icon from debate here in WWMC? ;)

    The Two Extremes

    There seems to be a lot of threads where two extremes try to battle it out - the atheists on one side, the YECists on the other. Sure, sometimes an agnostic or a less conservative poster will wander into the threads and post - but that's not the meat of what happens in this forum. So I ask...

    [OPEN] Getting it from all sides

    I hope this is indeed an open thread! Does it frustrate anyone else that moderate and liberal Christians (whatever that means!) seem to get critisism from all sides? Some very conservative folks claim moderate and liberal Christians are lukewarm Christians, are Christians who think the Bible...

    What Happened to Women in Christianity?

    What happened to women in Christianity? In the early Church - indeed, in the Bible - they are described as being the first to tell of His death, of being the first to tell His message after his death. A woman - Mary Magdalene - is the person He spoke to! Women hosted the first Churches, even...
