• 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

1'm t3h l33t.. not a christian (im not religiouss, I wish I was so I had someone to fall back on.. like say, god).

The concept of christianity (or any other religion for that matter) seems naive and childish. I want someone to try and convince me that there *is* in fact a god and therefor I can just relax (seing as how god will make everything work out in the end).

well, hi

Wouldn't you rather seek answers yourself rather then tell others "try and convince"?
not really no, I've thought a lot about it on my own and I've come to find that being christian must rock (seing as how you can just say "god works in mysterious ways" every time something bad happens), and basicly whatevv you do (as long as you don't act like a complete ass, towards other christians anyway) you get to go to heaven. However, I can't bring myself to beliving in god (I mean, in theory it shouldn't be possible, as far as I'm aware) thus, I ask for help..

DUH :p

ryudo: why dont you read the bible again!
You may find god while reading it this time, if you read the bible when you was a little boy, you may not understand all the things in the bible, if you are 10 years old.
:)

-May god be with you.
Yes please be encouraged, not ridiculed, If you have a bible please read it and ask God to help you understand it. Start in the chapter of Mathew and read on... If you havnt got a bible you can read one online...
http://bible.com/bible_read.html the New international version is good

All the best, and may God bless you with a better understanding of Him :)

dear raikiri and karen;
I read the bible when I was 13 (I was christian till i read it, and I'm now 16 so it's not very long ago either). And way I see it, it's not very well written (if you don't *try* to find good or bad parts you won't find any, which would be bad seing as how I think that every book should have atleast some good points). Anyway, thx
