• 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.

Prayer for you, Sis. I urge you to stay close to Jesus and His most Sacred Heart; please do not forsake his Body the Holy Catholic Church. All the Saints and Martyrs are aggrieved and persecuted by the Church at times because her hierarchs do not always espouse the faith she teaches, professes, and know to be immutable and true.

I encourage you to not lose heart. It is a heavy cross with which we presently struggle given the tumult within Rome and elsewhere within the Church. I sympathise. But we're in this together. God bless you. :)
Good post. Thanks. :)

There's been times when my sleep was so screwed up, I didn't have the energy to post. I just read threads instead. When I got to feeling better, I posted again. I hope you're able to come back soon.

Me 3!
And when I get really frustrated, I try to remember that I am fighting FOR something.

And that makes all the difference.
