Thomas Jefferson would say we're way overdue for some rebellion. "God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they...

Morality the Christian perspective When discussing morality and ethics, Christians are often called upon, expected, or demanded to talk about morals apart from the bible. Understandably, unbelievers don't know what the bible says, don't care what it says, or simply have no reason to put stock...

I'm surprised I didn't see anything about this on CF. . . Senate rejects abortion amendment in health care bill - CNN.com The amendment filed Monday by Sens. Ben Nelson, D-Nebraska, and Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, mirrored language in the House bill that prevents any health plan receiving federal...

I'm celebrating my 1000th post by giving away 1,000 blessings to the first person to post a picture of a thousand. . . something. lol. It has to be at least a thousand individual things of one type, but not a picture of something else. So a thousand grains of sand would be in a picture of a...

In the spirit of randomness I will roll dice to decide how many blessings you get. Don't worry, I play D&D so I've got plenty. Oh, and don't be discouraged if...

There are a few arguments for pro-choice that I have problems with as arguments themselves. 1) In the case of rape, a child would be a constant and painful reminder of the poor woman's trauma. It's given that rape is a terrible crime. However, it is not given (as far as I know) that the child...

My friend Rick has been married for almost 3 years, and his wife wants a divorce. Rick wants so badly to save his marriage, and today is a last ditch effort to see a counseling couple. Please pray that Rick receives a miracle in his life, and that God's will be done.

What's your favorite kind of chocolate? I will give out 100 blessings to the first 7 people who choose my favorite (unless you have thousands of blessings, that'd be overkill) Make sure to post your favorite and answer the poll!

My first prayer request is for my friend Rick. We hung out today, and we had wonderful spiritual discussion. We both grew up as Christians, but recently he is really pursuing God. I don't know what the Lord has in store for Rick, but it's very exciting. Please pray that Rick will follow God's...

At one time, the world was convinced the Earth lay at the centre of the universe. The sun and stars seemed to revolve around a central point. The North Star, no matter what time of night, no matter what time of year, could always be found in the same spot on a cloudless night. So it would seem...

There was this game on Win 95 or 98 I absolutely loved, but never finished. I want to find it, but can't remember what it's called. The game is played from 3rd person perspective and you have to guide the main character on a quest, through dialogue and puzzles. The world itself had 5 layers...

Something’s amiss. You might know this. Somewhere past all the feelings of “It’ll be alright” and the hope of “Someone has the solution” you’re prepared for the worst. What can be done about it? You’re just one person with one voice. Perhaps...

Harsh wording, I know. I’m going to start off by stating my beliefs. I believe in creation, I believe that God (in one being with the Holy Spirit and the Lord Jesus Christ) created this universe and everything in it.
