  • 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

This is for the Christians...Do you not read the Holy Bible and what it says about turn your other cheek or do you not understand what this meaning is saying ?

I will take some time and explain the meaning of turn your other cheek.

When someone slaps you, punches you, says something bad or untrue, why would you not turn your other cheek ?
When someone says something bad and you same something bad back your not turning you other cheek you using hate back.

To turn the other cheek is to forgive not to say he or she should die or be stoned or that he or she should desevre something bad...No, that is not what a (Christ)ian is. For a (Christ)ian is supose to be (Christ) Like to forgive not to say he or she should be punished but pray for them.
 
Romans 10 [14] How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

Romans 12 [1] Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. [2] Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.

SOS >>> I think it's been 2 0r 3 days :)

I hear you TRUTH. I know I have been guilty of trying to straighten someone out when I've been hit with a dart of rejection. Alot of times though; especially if it's downright heresy; shouldn't we say something out of concern for that soul? Is this what your getting at? It seems like it would be easier if they just punched you! :D
Shalom ;)
