• 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

Love came,
and became like blood in my body.
It rushed through my veins and
encircled my heart.
Everywhere I looked,
I saw one thing.
The Beloved's name written
on my limbs,
on my left palm,
on my forehead,
on the back of my neck,
on my right big toe.
Oh, my friend,
all that you see of me
is just a shell,
and the rest belongs to the Beloved.

These are some quotes from my guy the 30th President of the USA CALVIN COOLIDGE....

-"No one ever listened themselves out of a job."

-"It takes a great man to be a good listener."

-"He who gives license to his tongue proclaims his lack of discipline...and self-respect."

-"A man of prayer speaks when speech is useful to himself or his neighbor. He will not waste energy and squander his thoughts in idle conversation."

-No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor is the reward for what we give."

-"We do not need more material development, we need more spiritual development.
We do not need more intellectual power, we need more moral power.
We do not need more knowledge, we need more character.
We do not need more law, we need more religion."

-"Men show, by what they worship, what they are."

-"Four-fifths of all our troubles in this life would disappear if we would just sit down and keep still."

``What else can I be,'' returned the uncle, ``when I live in such a world of fools as this Merry Christmas! Out upon merry Christmas. What's Christmas
time to you but a time for paying bills without money; a time for finding yourself a year older, but not an hour richer; a time for balancing your books and having every item in 'em through a round dozen of months presented dead against you?
If I could work my will,'' said Scrooge indignantly,
``every idiot who goes about with ``Merry Christmas'' on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart. He should!''
-Charles Dickens (Christmas Carol)
