• 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.

Hello my name is not Catholic with a Mic I just play one on TV (rather podcast). Being new here I look forward to browsing the site and discovering all there is to find.

I recently left a Christian forum because of the personal attacks and slanderous post against various faith traditions. Open and HONEST discussion and debate is what interest me the most. And I look forward to that here. I read the statement of faith for the site and the definition of Christian and non-Christian and I'm already optimistic.

As you all can tell from my name I am Catholic and yes I do have a mic. I hail from the Great White North and am a Truck Driver by trade and amateur podcaster by well when ever I get time to do it.

That's me :)

Glad you decided to join us!

So am I, just scratching the surface and I'm enjoying the respect member show for each other. I was in one thread and a poster got a bit snappy and within a couple post the issue was cleared up and the poster that was snappy apologized. That's classy! We can all have bad day's but it takes class to recognize when you've messed up.

Welcome. I also like the way most of the members here seem to respect each other despite differences of beliefs.
