  • 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.

    St. Patrick's Day?

    I used to work in restaurants that celebrated St. Patrick's Day with Irish food like Corned Beef and Cabbage and beer. I'm not a member of a church that recognizes Saints in the Catholic sense, but I do see the historical merit of Saint Patrick's life and Sainthood, which is formally designated...

    Why did Protestantism mostly fail to take hold in Ireland?

    Today is the Glorious 12th of July, the anniversary of the battle of the Boyne, the Protestant version of St. Patrick's day. This is when Orange orders stage marches in honour of their Protestantism and their forebears. Why though is Ireland not Protestant today and Catholicism so closely...
