• 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.

Yeah, I'm thinking about checking out Moderate Christians, also. I've pretty much given up on the theology forums where they keep deleting my posts. Kind of like Iran, huh?

Nah, Iran has more freedom of religion and speech than Christianforums.com

Note the Avatar I chose.

Wish I could even tell you why I chose it, but I'm sure I can't.

Is it safe for me to say I missed Davin now that he's back?

Hmmm.

That's another pretty pleasant corner of CF. I was in on the founding of Bridge Builders, and being pleasant to each other was a large part of what it was all about. It isn't real active, but that does continue to be the culture of it, such as it is.

Wrong icon.

Well... you shouldn't... Believe in yourself and the One who made you as you are.

If I may be so bold, I don't think it's doubting God so much as doubting how spiritually useful it is to be on a forum that's so rigid and negative sometimes.
