  • 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

    If near-death experiences show heaven, why do they change depending on culture?

    If NDEs represent what heaven is like, I would expect all occurrences to show Jesus, the Father, Mary, angels, etc. But sometimes, for instance, Hindus don't see any of them, they see the Hindu gods: Near-Death Experiences and Hinduism

    I've always dreaded my wedding day.

    Most girls dream of walking down the aisle one day, with their family and loved ones around them but I sadly dread this day. To sum it up, my family is toxic. They leach off others, they hurt and abuse and they have never provided a loving environment in the 24 years of my life. Because of...
