  • 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.

You have the reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not...

    Is being a Christian and liking Guns mutually exclusive?

    I once said that I like guns and think of them as a beautiful technical art. I was nearly kicked off of FB and the hate mail was on one reason I left FB. It seems that some people have the impression that if you say that you are a Christian and like guns then you are a hypocrite. Not so. I...

    Here's how "Christians" are hypocrites!

    Christians are hypocrites. Well, let me rephrase that: people who are not Christian judge people who say they are Christian, as hypocrites. And they're right! Let me be clearer though: there are millions of people who call themselves "Christians" who are not and so they do not --in fact are...

    Accusing Christians of being hypocrites

    The other evening I was watching a YouTube video and then I read the comments section and found another example of a naysayer who goes off the deep end and points out what we hear so, so often blaming Christians for many of the ills of the world. He was responding to another person's comment...
