  • 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.

Is it wrong for a girlfriend to ask her boyfriend of 2 years to not be friends with a female that he recently met (about 4 months) that has openly expressed she has feelings for him, and hangs around him a lot. She is not a Christian. I am not sure if it being selfish on my part or jealousy. I want him to have his friends but I am uncomfortable with her, especially when we have an argument and he runs to her. If she did not have feelings for him it would not bother me but I am not sure that I can trust her and this has put a strain on our relationship. We were talking about marriage but I am not so sure now, especially since he spends a lot of time with her, one on one, although he denies having feelings for her, but he does consider her to be one of his good friends. Is it wrong for me to ask him to not spend so much time with her especially being alone with her??

I agree with talking with him about why it concerns you and how it makes you feel. I think that forbidding him to be friends with her would make matters worse. It might actually cause their friendship to be stronger. Just as you would like him to consider your feelings about him talking to someone else other than you, how would you feel if he told you not to spend time with one of your friends? I can understand where this would make you feel uncomfortable, so I think you have the right to talk to him about it and express your concerns to him.
