  • 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.

    The intolerance of tolerance : How relativism leads to tyranny

    Modern relativism, the notion that no viewpoint is exclusively true, contradicts Platonic-Christian philosophy, which grounds truth and righteousness in eternal forms. Contemporary society has distorted the historical meaning of ‘tolerance’ and has created a new form of intolerance. This paper...

    Converted ex Muslims are particularly difficult to support in their new faith: Some techniques that might help.

    The vast majority of Muslims living in western society are very intertwined with other Muslims. So to break free would mean a divorce if married or walking away from the immediate family, if not. Clearly a drastic move. Honor killings are a thing so when they leave they must break all ties...

    I am seeking answers on multiple questions about Christianity as a muslim that is curious and lost

    Hi For years, I've been questioning my faith as a Muslim. After leaving Islam and drifting into agnosticism, I felt profoundly lost. However, during Ramadan last year, I rediscovered God and returned to Islam. Yet, despite feeling a connection with God in my heart, I find myself struggling to...

    Concerning Chinese, Japanese and Korean Christianity

    This thread is a reply to certain posts concerning Chinese Christianity in my thread on potentially heterodox parishes and local churches, as this formed the basis of an interesting discussion with @bbbbbbb @MarkRohfrietsch and @FireDragon76 which was off-topic to the previous thread: What I...

    Debunking False Religions with Christian Universalism

    I talked with a Muslim today. I showed them the Gospel, that Jesus Christ saves everyone through faith alone. That is, the whole world will be saved, every single person in existence will trust in Christ and go to Heaven. Since they did not believe in what I told them, the truth, I decided to...

    Could this be the antichrist (Islam's future Mahdi) ??

    Orthodox Christians As The Victims Of Heretical Sects

    This originated as a reply to a thread, but grew a bit too large, so I made it a blog post. Indeed, it is true that Roman Pagans accused the early Christians of cannibalism, based on a misunderstanding of the Eucharist. Pagan accusations of gross sexual immorality were probably the result of...

    How will Islam fall?

    Since Islam is not the global religion of the AntiChrist, it must fall before his reign begins. But how will this occur? It seems that Islam remains a barrier to building a Cathedral (Temple) on the Temple Mount and does not fit the biblical pattern of prophecy relating to the Israel of the last...

    Anti-Christ Muslim Islam and the End

    Islam denies Jesus "came in the flesh" in its core doctrines. It denies His Deity and his Redemptive sacrifice on the cross. It denies the resurrection of Christ which was unnecessary in its view because Jesus never died in the first place but was rather snatched up to heaven. No other religion...

    Was the Reconquista a justified holy war?

    In the history of holy wars of Christianity one stands out as the most successful, with the greatest consequences and results. The Reconquista not only expelled Islamic influence from Spain and in the process, all of western Europe, it laid the foundation of the future Christian Kingdoms which...

    Quick Question

    Out of curiosity, who do y'all think the Antichrist will be? I've been studying the evidence for quite some time, and have come to the conclusion that the Antichrist will be a specific Muslim figure, but I would like to know what y'all think and why.

    Islam Islam and Political control and fragmentation

    One of the central ideas of Islam has always been unity and the dream of a global caliphate. Muhammad and the First Caliphs devoted a considerable amount of effort to eliminating dissent from Islamic control and crushing rebellions. But very early on there was fragmentation between Sunnis and...

    Hello from Pakistan

    Hello my friends! My name is Inzamam and I live in Islamabad, Pakistan. I have come to this site because I am curious about Christianity. I am a practicing Muslim but I want to understand the differences and similarities in our faiths. To me we are all one under God. Inshallah I shall hear...

    Video about Saint John of Damascus, Holy Icons and Islam (675-749 A.D.)

    I don't usually post about Islam, but this video connects to the history of Christianity and Christian Doctrines that directly differ from Islam. Saint John of Damascus was one of the first Christians to write a defense of Christian Doctrine to the Muslims (675-749 A.D.) John of Damascus -...

    Fr. Zakaria Botros, preaching the Gospel to Muslims

    Well it's been a year or so since I talked about this guy, so it's time to do so again since I'm a big fan. The Coptic father has a 60 million dollar price on his head. My favorite video of him is him being interviewed by this Canadian TV host. I'm watching or going to watch him talk to...

    The Big Question

    Before I ask The Big Question, that anyone from the Abrahamic faiths can answer, I will be as transparent about myself and my efforts as possible. Born and raised in the USA to a military family that was half Baptist and half Catholic I was always hearing from one side the other was going to...
