  • 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.

Hi guys,

I'm new to this forum. I am a 22 year old, born in America and raised in Canada. Having grown up in church, I've accepted Christ into my life at an early age. For the past few years however, my faith had been dwindling probably because of the increasing negativity that i had built up in my heart and mind. Does any of you guys know what I should do renew my mind and cast out any demons that may stand in my way? I am about to start a career in real estate and want to have the right perspective and faith going into it. I am always conflicted by the notion of worldly success and glory vs christian thinking. If anyone can share their experiences on how they were able to reach harmony and congruency in their walk with God as well as achieve great worldly success and sense of achievement, please share. Thanks!
