  • 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:

Well, this is my first poem entered on-line at CF. Let me know what you think.

Forgive Me

I'm trying to make my peace with God
Asking Him to heal me from my sin.
I'm trying to soften this heart of stone
And otherwise bridge this awful chasm
Because I'm hurting so very badly
And my pain and my anger - my grief
And my despair at my wretchedness -
Consume me (and I am near to tears).
I hope You know, Lord, how sick
And tired I am of being sick and tired
And recovering from my sin and separation.
But if You wouldn't mind so very much
Forgive me?
