  • 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.

Awesome awesome awesome. Praise God! As Aaron said, though, recognize that this is a time which God is blessing you abundantly and after the blessing will come the test. The Saints have written about this phenomenon many times. The Lord gives and gives in abundance and then takes a step back to test our fruits and see if we will follow Him even when we don't necessarily feel His presence. I have no doubts that you'll be just fine. Praise God!

Wow...I didn't realize it until I just read that..but I'm in the test phase.. The spiritual gifts/graces that came full force in the beginning have seemed to stop almost completely. I find it much harder to pray and keep up with things, I was devoted to the rosary on a daily basis but have really been slacking..I need to get back into it.
