  • 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.

Another Must Read!!

Life is so weird sometimes. We are walking through it not even noticing the things that are really important. The past week my life has taken a huge dramatic change. But I am so out of it right now that the thing that has changed my life doesn’t seem to affect me as much as I thought it would. I mean you have to wake up each and every morning and look in the mirror and say it’s another day, all that happened yesterday is in the past. The event that happened was I Lost someone that I loved. I lost her to nothing pretty much. And I knew it was going to happen one day, she had not the strength to go on. But the past few days as I have thought about her and what she has meant to me. I find myself thinking I am not going to regret that she is gone because the things we experienced together were things that no one will ever be able to understand but us two. All those experiences showed me many things, many life lessons. And I can’t say thank you enough to her. Of course I would love to have more experiences with her. But it is not meant to be. Nothing is ever meant to be until it is done. Also these past few days God has come back into my life. I have been joined up by old friends who are religious,and they are teaching me wonders. But I do have a question for you reader. My friend and I were talking the other day…and What does it take to be a full out Christian, and the answer we came up with is it takes sacrifice of the self. I mean you have to drop anything and everything, from books-music-friends-to life secrets-lies-and false living. You have to devote everything to Christ. And let him use you to do things. This is the way it must be for everyone. But I do not believe that it is only this way. I have spoke many times in my life about how Jesus was sent to Earth to set an example of what man should be, and that is a helping individual…Helping not for their own gain but for the gain of others. So that everyone may be helped and no problems would arise. But many think otherwise. They think that helping people is not good,well…it is good. Not being greedy and worried about your own self…that’s where its at. There is also one thing that is a problem. Most people are interested in their own salvation. Got to do this and that so I CAN go to heaven one day. See that’s where people have to stop…look around and realize it shouldn’t matter. They should care more about others than themselves getting there. And if they do help others to Realize the word of God and they turn into Christians and they are being helped. That person needs not to worry about getting to Heaven because in all reality helping the Lord’s Children Realize the way…I believe that would assure you more of a spot in Heaven than anything else. So Stop worrying about you…Help others…teach the word to others. Don’t be selfish. Let everyone go to Heaven.
