• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I hate Google!

Because the Android company was bought by Google in 2005. You can download apps from other systems

HEY, thanks!
One concern you might want to have is that apps do get vetted by Google for malware. Downloading outside of the store may not have the same protection.

I got an exclusive phone!

No Google
Independent search engine
Unique apps store

Thing is, its only available to Corgis!
You have way to much for a dog:)
Since you're an expert on flip phone. Isn't there a phone you can buy that gives you so many calls. No contracts. When you run out of calls you can buy more but it's generic, no particular company. Everything is generic. Sort of like a throwaway. No strings? Indeed something in case my phone quits and i need to make a call.

So you did make a choice. A choice for an Android phone. There is another option that requires no Google store.
