  • 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.

You know the funny part is as if such a refined Southerner like G.W. would even take a picture and be seen sharing the same golf course with a less inferior Yankee ( and golfer) such as your self.

Oh, I forgot, I owed you one.. maybe I should have let that one slide.

I was born and brought up Catholic...

and I'm still Catholic, and plan to remain one. No morbid fascination with boxes
but I envisage a beautiful Catholic burial plot!


I must admit that the last few years have involved some serious thought
and laborious research
regarding my interest in denominational differences.

I must admit that Martin Luther had a point. But he dealt with it in an entirely un-Christian and anti-apostolic way. I plan to remain in Christ's One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, and admit that the 16thC church had lost track in a few areas. (My thoughts in a tiny nutshell...)

Peace be with you

I am Eastern Orthodox Catholic.

I was tempted to vote just plain Catholic, but I recognized the intent of the poll, so I registered myself among the "Orthodox brethren" (but what about our "sistern"?
).

I am a Catholic.

When my Dad told one of my Roman Catholic cousins that I had become Orthodox, she replied, "He's more Catholic than the Pope!" (She meant no offense; she said that because she thinks we Orthodox are terribly old-fashioned).

Anyway, I took that as a compliment.

I pray for a reunion of the Catholics of the East and West.

Hello Angel


You want to learn more?
Any questions, just ask away, so many people here love to talk of their faith. Remember the only dumb question is the one you don't ask. <-------- oh man that sounds corny, but true.
Hi!! I actually used to ask questions a lot. But I barely have time to get myself into Reilly's Pub now...so most of my learning comes from the questions that others have asked.

Amidala? Star Wars, right?
Yes sir!! My favorite character. From some of my favorite movies.

So far we make upn .1% of all of CF's members
And for every one Catholic poster on this board, there are ten here who attack the Church and spread malicious lies about Her. Unfortunately, anti-Catholicism is here to stay, on this board, and it's dark reach is everywhere, on every forum and amongst some of the staff as well.

And it is up to each one of us; the one person among the ten, to be the light that shines through, that over comes the darkness of those lies and myths.

Rejoice when your persecuted …great is your reward.

Many opposing views and opinions do not make meaningless one convert to Catholicism. There will always be a diamond in the dirt, it just takes some finding sometimes.
Great statment
But he still persisted: "Please, let not my Lord grow angry if I speak up this last time. What if there are at least ten there?" "For the sake of those ten," he replied, "I will not destroy it."

Any place that does not receive you or listen to you, as you go out from there, shake the dust off the soles of your feet for a testimony against them.

funny you should mention that. The last Bible Study entry in my journal is concerning that very piece of scripture.
