• 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.

Even though I'm on break, (and finally doing the meditations) I thought I'd post one more prayer request. (hopefully, this'll be the last) Yesterday, on FishEaters Forum, someone posted a prayer request asking that the Pseudo-catholic news agency, National "catholic" Reporter either be converted to authentic Catholicism or be shut-down. (see the original thread here: https://www.fisheaters.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=79097) I'd thought invite my fellow-Catholics here to join in on the prayers for the conversion or collapse of Fishwrap, their offices are based in a diocese dedicated to St. Joseph so ask for his intercessions when you pray.

Mikhael, even clergy has spoken against them. Fake news. Prayers for this intention.
That's why I asked what they are. The Universalist, gay is great, let's have open communion type?

Well then I suppose their bishop is failing then. They shouldn't be called Catholic but I'm sure he's the type who won't excomunnicate because politics.
Actually bishop Finn was a great bishop but once he failed to properly discipline a child molesting priest and he was taken out for it. The National 'c'atholic Reporter reveled in his demise because he DID call on them to stop using the name 'Catholic' in their publication. I don't know what his successor has done about it.

Bishop Finn To The National Catholic Reporter…Stop Calling Yourself Catholic!

The National 'c'atholic Reporter, aka 'fishwrap', is not to be confused with the National Catholic Register, a good and orthodox publication. Both have the abbreviation 'NCR' which is confusing.
