• 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

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

I have an account there, but I barely use it. I don't trust FB's platform or security one bit, even less so since they started forcing "ads" onto my feed and some of them are downright bizarre and creepy.

For someone like myself, who is very introverted and not the type to spontaneously "reach out" to people, FB allows us to see what friends, family, etc, are up to, without having to piece together direct conversations through texts or emails.

For me, that creeps me out. There are some I do not want contact with again. I always said if I joined, it would be private and only by invite. Not sure that’s possible there but it does amaze me how many out their lives out there along with their family members for all to stalk.

You can change your privacy settings so that only those you have chosen can see your updates.

When I'm on a trip to the Highlands I often take wildlife or scenery photos, then I post the best one on Facebook. Nothing reminds us of the majesty of God than the beauty of his creation, posting on FB a group of folks can see the photo at once. Wouldn't want to text them all. God Bless :)

Well from all I’ve seen lately, I’m not joining. They are a huge problem imo. I’ll wait for a different platform I feel good about.

Kind of like smoking, not a good thing to start if you are not already doing it.
