• 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

Sometimes they are .... you have to remember we are real people with real feeling that can be hurt and harmed behind these words that you see on the screen. The people that type these words are real human beings.

We should all acknowledge one another as being real individuals not just some words on a screen, and if we did that then most of the time we would get along a whole lot better.

Peoples hearts don't stop at their keyboards.....

The words we type are merely an extension of our hearts and minds and soul in many instances, especially when it comes to something as personal as Faith and God...
We must first have an intellectual base first for reacting to our emotions. Remember we are not like the postmoderns out there that react like animals to our sense perception but we are given reason to react properly.

Is it wrong to like anime/manga and games?

It depends who ask a reasonable person would tell would for the most part anime is harmless and video games are too sure can become stumbling block and there is some anime that is unacceptable due to content just like any kind of TV show.

Please don't go, you are a nice brother. Still remember how you apologise and sent me blessings over a moment of rudeness in you.

Stay. :)

Does your heart always act intellectually? I know that sometimes mine doesn't and freely admit that. In fact I wish that sometimes my heart and my mind always thought the same thing.

NewGuy your entitled to your opinion but I was using logic I didn't bother to read past page 4 in the thread that Debi started and it didn't seem like there was much point in continuing to people bashing me.
Besides I if any of the jobs I'm up for come through I won't I'll be moving out of my parents house immedaetely. This will cause me to have very limited computer access for reaction so yes it seemed very illogical to me to continue to practipate on this board at the time when I started this thread.
