• 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.

More specifically, Argent started the thread, so I think he (shockingly) had a particular form of intolerance in mind.

Exactly.

Rather then turn this into the millioneth homosexuality debate, keep it on topic and discuss whether christians should be "intolerant" in general. If he wanted to go talk about homosexuality he could go join one of the threads that are already up.

There has never been, and there will never be a time when I will obey your orders, little boy.

Why don't you run along and play with other children and let the adults discuss the important issues of life. Then, when you are dry behind the ears, you can join in an adult conversation, or you can continue to make meaningless posts right here in the internet.

BTW, are you still on schedule to graduate from highschool in the Spring. Congratulations!
Tsk tsk. Your tone is a bit much, eh big boy? Do you want to talk about homosexuality in this thread?

I didn't bring up the issue of homosexuality. "Noobsaibot" did. I was responding to his assertion regarding Fundamentalists Christians and their attitude of intolerance toward homosexuals.

Now, why don't you read more carefully from now on, or is that no longer taught in your highschool?

LOL

If you wanted to talk about homosexuality you could have made a homosexuality thread. Or were you not able to figure that out?

I dont "play" with other "children". I may be 18 but that doesnt make me an a little kid who doesnt know anything. You don't know me you don't know my life and you have no idea what I do and don't know.

I find it funny that you're the supposed adult but you resort to throwing around insults first...tsk tsk tsk.

BTW...I already graduated high school.

I think I've run into a lot of Christians who must follow the advice of that book.

And dang they're idiots...and they definitely turn people away from their belief system and only serve to cause people to be more intolerant of Christians. Is that what you want?

Intolerance causes more intolerance. Same as racism causes more racism, and so on.

This is a jaded (Look it up in the dictionary. You do own a dictionary?) attempt at manipulation that liberals have been using for decades. The old "If you tell them that (The Truth) you'll drive them away!" No way Jose'!!!

BTW, are you self-identifying as homosexual?

You can tell the truth but by being intolerant you turn them away from whatever you are trying to tell them.

And why are you so obsessed with homosexuality?

And I didnt self identify as homosexual. I'm straight.

How about, if you insist you know what God thinks you'll drive them away?

I did it read it.

Do you not realize you have the option not to respond to people?

And as I already said...I'm out of of high school.
