  • 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

As an '"empty heart", but i just start to learn new things,...
I v been dated a few when i was not a christian , and those just like nightmares.
and now, i need to learn:
1. If a man make compliments on a woman's looks,does it mean the man is following lust or a surface man only focus on outside?right now I feel sick of all of those compliments.
that is a long story, ..........so do not want to bother u with detail.
2.I want to understand why a man will want to find a mate?
cuz of loneliness seeking companion ?
3.Is marriage or family still a God main creation or is it a society main organization?

1. Depends on the man. It is wrong to assume that we are all letches. Men are capable of appreciating beauty without lusting. Take a compliment for what it's worth, and don't read too much into it either way.

2. Men want wives for many reasons. Companionship and relief of loneliness are just two of many.

3. If I correctly understand your question, marriage and family are both of God and a foundation of society.

no, complimenting is fine. it is just when the man seems to only care about looks, or looks seem most important to him that is not fine. appreciating beauty does not mean lust. but if a guy mostly only appreciates beauty he is very shallow. It is okay to compliment but men should not focus on the physical beauty so much.
2.I want to understand why a man will want to find a mate?

because God makes us this way:

Matthew 19:4 And he answered and said, Have ye not read, that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?
6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
3.Is marriage or family still a God main creation or is it a society main organization?
no matter how people change the rules, the way God created it and the way God intends it remains the same. People can make their own rules, but God doesn't live for us, we live for Him so the rules for us Christians are the same. So still marriage remains a blessing from God in which we should please the Lord.
