• 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.

Do you think it is possible that one day a new branch/sect of religion could arise...or maybe a new denomination (to keep it in "Christianity"), and that it can be what we are doing right here in this forum...and be called "Forumism"? Why/why not?

*Would the founders be called "Reforumers"?

That could become something. Then how long would it take for a Forumist Reformation and the split into Free Will Forumists, Old Forumists, Seventh Day Forumists, ...

Don't forget the Orthodox Forumists, still advocating the same ideas we were all unanimous about when CF first went live.

While some good does indeed get done here, and I've been blessed to be a part of it on occasion, texting will not replace face to face, eye to eye contact. Too much is missing.

That's pretty clever.
You have a way with words, brother.

Blessings to you in the Lord today.
