• 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.

Hi Brothers and Sisters,

This if my official, first post. A quick bit about myself. I just recently earned a BA degree in Philosophy, and I am entering into a master's program for Education/Social Science.

I've been a Christian for about 19 years, although I went through what might be called an existential crisis for a couple of years until about a year or so ago. I feel that the Lord is trying to help revivify my faith. I see myself as an existential Christian now, in the vain of Soren Kierkegaard.

I'm glad to be here. Any other philosophers out there?

In Christ, Dave


Hello Dave :wave: Welcome to CF!

Hello, Dave. Everyone has given the heartfelt howdy (we're the welcome wagon, don't ya know). Not sure if we'll ever cross paths, since I don't usually dabble in philosophical banter. However, as you could probably gather by now, if you look about and dig right in you'll make friends in no time! Hey, just look all of us in your thread!
Be blessed, brother.
Nan
