  • 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

Doesn't this peeve you?

I really think that annoying people, mostly Christians is why many of them engage in conversations concerning evolution or creation. They think that they have superior intelligence and want to flaunt and twist words and taunt. Did I say it gets on my nerves sometimes? :D

You know what peeves me? Is people with the little Christian symbol on their profiles but then they hate every word in the bible or don't believe in anything God said. That peeves me. How can someone say they are Christian and deny every word of God except the lovey dovey ones? If its about love peace and happiness they except it. If its about Satan, sin, sinners, or hell they refute it. You should appreciate every word of God's not just the parts that make you feel fuzzy and warm inside.

I expect atheists to dislike us but I get ticked off when "Christians" hate God.

:amen:

I am a member of a mainstream online community on which a variety of topics are discussed, from simple things such as food likes and dislikes to stronger issues such as politics and religion. There are both unbelievers and believers who are members of the site, and seeing that it is mainly secular Website, many of the secular (especially atheistic and agnostic members) really like to get their jabs in about Christians, in general, and this is one of the ways they do it.

As far as school is concerned, this was an issue I was faced with several years ago when I was in school, but what I'm talking about is not necessarily in schools, but on other forums and message boards (as well as with the people we may encounter in person), in which an unbeliever may refer to a believer in such ways, either directly addressing them, or speaking about them with their unbelieving "cronies". It's kind of hard to explain what I'm getting at.

I know exactly what you're talking about.

On secular forums of all types, it is a rather common occurence for the atheists to start "off topic" threads with such titles as "proof God doesn't exist", with some pathetic post or link they think "proves" christians are all insane, and then flame anyone who shows up to say otherwise.


In one case, I am regularly labeled an "idiot" just because of my stance on creation, even though the forum's members well know I am probably smarter and better educated than most of them.


If you want the short answer, I think most of them are full of satan.

And by your lack of love towards the spiritually crippled is not full of satan?

Atheists are people too and thus are deserving of the same love and respect as any other human being. Trust me, I was one.
