• 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.

I am a bit lost on this huge forum, where do I belong to?

*Born Lutheran, now Anglican (CoE)
*Anglo-catholic, but in favour of women bishops
*Loves to worship with all kind of "Christian Flavours"
*My attitude towards gays: "And, so, what? Can we concentrate on more important things like poverty please!"

Don't know if I make myself clear...SY

We can often lose ourselves when we try to find the visions of another.

Try looking deeper than the confines of man. :wave:

Thanks for the answer, but I was actually trying to explore which forum/ board would be the best for me here, or I the best for... SY

Try reading some of the posts of different forums you can always leave it you don't feel a connection.

Yeah that's a good point. In the end, only you really know if you are a Moderate Christian or not. But while you're here, welcome! :wave:

What exactly is a 'moderate' Christian? seriously just wondering...I've been serving God for a few years now (had a radical conversion)...I've actually never heard the term 'moderate' Christian.
We just sorta made it up, by popular demand. :D

There were some of us on CF who didn't really fit in well in the liberal, conservative or fundamentalist forums, and we wanted our own place.

Most of us (by which I mean the founding members of this forum) are theologically more conservative than not, but we tend to have a more tolerant, less confrontational, less argumentative attitude on questions of faith. And it doesn't especially bother us if a few people who are more liberal or more conservative than ourselves want to post here.

None of that means we're 'lukewarm' in our faith, or that we love God less passionately... but I think we have a less contentious spirit about it, and IMHO that's a very good thing, a very God thing.

:clap:
