• 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.

How did you find this place?

I came with the bricks. Back in '99 or 2000, when everybody got sick and tired of the shenanigans on the Left Behind Message Board (hereafter referred to as The Board That Shall Not Be Mentioned), about a hundred or so posters split off and formed two new boards, the "Pizza Parlor", and the "Unofficial Left Behind Message Board". I was a founding member of both.

The "Unofficial Left Behind Message Board" changed its name to something else that I have forgotten, and later yet, changed it again to the "King's Tavern". King's Tavern merged with Christian Forums, and here we are.

I don't go to the Pizza Parlor any more, by the by.....a lot of the old-timers have left there, and it's been infiltrated by a lot of posters from the Straight Dope site. For all intents and purposes, it's really a political and social actions board any more, where the liberals and the conservatives scream at each other a lot, and most of them are humanist agnostics, not Christians. It got too depressing to go there, so I resigned as moderator of one of the forums, and recently removed the link from my bookmarks altogether. It's a very sad ending for a once-noble board.

I like it here a LOT better. :)

Someone I had met at the 5Solas board, Thomas, recommended it to me when I asked him what his other boards were. (I was really bored with 5Solas, btw, and I was one of the few Arminians on a Calvinist board :) )

Somebody posted it as a link or something on the LBMB and I felt the Lord leading me here and here I am. I never thought I could be a part of something as beautiful as this place. I love it here :clap: and praise God for leading me here :bow:
