  • 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

    Credobaptism vs Pedobaptism

    Why Credo-Baptism by Immersion is the biblical mode of baptism

    Today, as I was playing in my home swimming pool with my dad, right after my mom and I dunked him under the water, I said to my dad and mom, "Now that is how a real baptism is done. Not by having a priest pour water on my head when I was a baby." When I was 15 and went on a high school field...

    Evangelical Covenant Church Questions

    We have been visiting a local church of the above denomination. In selecting a church family of which to belong it is important to me to find out what kind of doctrine/practices I am supporting and promulgating, even as a tithing visitor. The church itself has no local "core" values or doctrine...

    Rough time at mass

    I've had a rough time at mass, this morning, don't worry, I'm fine now, but at mass I was really struggling. As usual, I had a hard time focusing on Jesus, and mourning over the irreverence displayed there. What's more, an infant was baptized there and I couldn't focus on praying that he be...
