  • 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

That there was a pastor that said Pokemon are evil.(everyone is entitled to their opinion.) But then to show how he disliked pokemon, he took a torch to the pokemon cards, and then took a 30" sword to a pokemon doll and jabed it, and encouraged a child to rip off it's arms, all of this in front of sunday school kids! He said that pokemon are evil and violent, so what made his demonstration any better?

I like pokemon, but please, it's just a video game. and violent? all they do is faint all over the place.

Okay, I don't know that I would go so far as to call Pokemon 'evil' (okay, maybe I would), but this is just a little over the top. And by 'over the top', I actually mean "What in the world is wrong with this guy!?"

I mean holy smokes, if someone really did do something like that, I'd tell him to switch to decaff or something.
