  • 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'm the first to admit that I do watch stuff that will rot a brain -
I just watch it anyways & 'filter' out what I know is wrong with it.
:holy:
& I will not watch what steps over the line for me in what I can't even enjoy if I do watch it. I can't & won't watch "Desperate Housewives" -
however, I will watch a zombie flick or Dexter in a heartbeat :| :doh: ^_^
& personally I think the news can be very harmful to us too.
I think it turns us negative & pessimistic over time.

I think if we cut out ALL bad content, I think we'd have to
throw away our tv's entirely

interesting..i am the opposite. i WILL watch Desperate Housewives but i WON'T watch a zombie flick or Dexter

Surprisingly...Desperate Housewives, more often than not, has some pretty profound moral messages.

^_^ I don't even know how to begin to respond to this, so I'll mull over the idea of watching adulterous relationships as entertainment and morality teachings...maybe could get at Sunday School cirriculum out of a season or something:p

I can see where that's a reasonable and accurate assumption...:)

While it does present these things...it also presents the consequences of such...

I'm by no means condoning what the show portrays...just saying...they also present the flip side....how harmful greed, lust, lying, adultery, thanklessness and such can be...

you must be a heretic then!
:p
LOL ^_^

(altho I have to admit, the last season of Dexter wasn't near
as good as the first 2 were.
So. . . they better pick things up on the next season or else
I'll just stop watching it.

It's almost like the Matrix - they couldn't top the first movie.
Why is the first one always the best?
:scratch:
