• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

Oh Hi there, it's little old me surfing the threads. thought I would post something here. I think alot of people are just looking to see what is being said. Sort of like walking into church and after the service skipping out because nothing looks interesting. Perhaps this was brought up before, I did not have the chance to read all 52 pages I read the frist and the last. So forgive me if I repeated something.

At one point he wanted us to say where we are from.

Of course it would be kind of silly to say I am from Maine everytime I post in here. :D

Just poppin' in for the evening. I know most times when I look at the top of the forum when I am in the singles forum, there are usually 5 or 6 people, and several guests. Some of those folks aren't posting regulars though.

True - there are a lot of people I've never met. It would be good to find a way to meet them. On the other hand, PM'ing them out of the blue is like interrupting someone at a party.

Personally I would not have much problem with that Keil. It would be a rest from posting. It would have been nice to be welcomed, yeah I know that would be hard to do with having so many new members.

Well, I suppose we could always do the flight attendant thing - "Welcome to the Christian Forums Singles Area, we're glad you're here. Here's a bag of pretzels. Would you like a beverage?"

Or perhaps the Beverly Hillbillies approach: "We like to kindly thank you all for kindly droppin' in... kick your shoes off, set a spell!"
