  • 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

Amusingly, almost all of the Thelemites I ever met are now Christians, because taht is where their intellectual and personal voyage of faith topok them. Don't ask me why. The same is not true of people I have known who played Football. :)

One of my favorite quotes, and how I view life. Unfortunately i used to have it in my sig, but CF made me remove it.

I am one who usually defends AC since his humor is how I attributed most of his "satanism" but wanted to understand the quote regarding child sacrifice since i haven't read htat one in context yet.

I expect many of my co-religionists are wondering why a self professed redeemed in the blood Christian knows about Crowley. Simple, a) I read books, and b) my first college room mate who I met on day one at university was a gay sadomasochist follower of Crowley. Luckily as he pointed out I am pig ugly, so we got chatting, and from then on engaged in a fifteen year dialogue. He became a Christian, and I learnt not to be scared of or have knee jerk reactions to people who think differently to me. Neither of us ever compromised our beliefs, and to be honest he would have become a Christian wiith or without my input, but hey, I don't think being friendly hurt. Mind you, he did get a room of his own out of it, and I just got weird looks from my coreligionists!
