  • 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

I have crucifix s in my sleeping room where i can see them. I have a wall rosary above my bed which has a nice crucifix on the end. In my house to help me be constantly aware of GOD's love i have about 10 crucifix in places where i see them frequantly and am reminded of what HE did for me

In my parents home I think we have a crucifix in every bedroom, if not above an actual bed, then in a place easily seen from a bed.

When I first moved away from home, I didn't know where to get a wall crucifix but I had a small plastic crucifix with a little whole at the top like it was meant for a plastic rosary or maybe a necklace, so instead I nailed it to the wall above my bed (although not at the head, at the side) it's so small and beige colored that you can barely see it.

Well anyway, maybe you could do something similar.

I have one in each bedroom, hmmm...2 or 3 in the office/computer room, 2 or 3 in the living room, & one in the Kitchen/dining area. Each of my grandchildren (except 2, and that's because their mom is totally against Catholocism) has one for their room. I walked into my daughter's home the other day, and the boys were showing me their new rooms, and the proudly showed me their's hanging up! :)

I've always wanted a cross above my bed on the wall but I have this weird fear that it's gonna come crashing down on my head in my sleep and kill me. Do you all have crosses over your bed?

Well, I have a palm cross from Palm Sunday over mine... Even if it fell down, it wouldn't do damage!!;)
