  • 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

    LDS Elder Stevenson: Africans have "an extra gene in their DNA" which makes them more spiritual

    More weird Mormon racial pseudo-scientific stuff is appearing online lately, at least in my feed on YouTube (this is what I get for searching for BYU speeches for you people :p). This one is just weird, but I suspect mostly harmless/meant in a 'positive' way. Normally I'd have some point to...

    LDS The LDS "inquisition" of the early 80s against its own historians: the end of LDS academic history?

    Since I've had a lot of time to wait around in airports lately, I've cracked open a book I bought a few years ago that I've been meaning to read and just never had the time. It's called The Mormon Murders by Steven Naifeh & Gregory White Smith (published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1988), and its...

    Just finally left the LDS church

    Hi everyone, I didn't know where to post this but I have finally left the LDS church, I read the New Testament all the way through and I knew it wasn't the true church by the time I'd finished Luke. I've lost everyone, my friends, most of my family, I'm lucky my marriage is holding together...

    Why are Mormons generally disliked by society?

    A lot of people are against the religion, and honestly I don't really know why. For as much as I've looked into it, it is still a religion like any other, still Christian even, and doesn't seem to raise a red flag for me. My boyfriend of two years is Mormon and I am a Protestant Christian...

    Someone from Germany

    My name is Gerlinde, and I live in Reinickendorf, a suburb of Berlin. I had been a member of the LDS Church since my childhood, and was excommunicated there (that was in 1992) because I was different. After I had left the Mormons, the best that had ever happened to me, I visited Christian and...
