• 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

Americans should be outraged at Pete Buttigieg’s public sexualization of children

"How many boys of that age still dream innocently of marrying their mothers?"

Said age being 9.

I'd like to confidently guess 0%. And also hand out an ewwwwww to lifesitenews.

It is both sad and sickening that those are so willing to shake their bibles and condemn others for being in love while at the same time they are so willing to sin and spread hatred and lies.

That idea is the cornerstone of Sigmund Freuds views. I've not heard it gain much traction in the years since he died.

Technically none of us created our children, or ourselves. But we do like saying "My this, and My that" as if we know that our hierarchical family system is the only way to go.

If you research the origin story in the Old Testament (Without bias) You will see that our current family model is due to the consequence of the fall of humankind.

It is meant that we tend to marry the personalities of our parents. Men marry women that are very similar to their mothers in personality and so do women marry men whose personalities resemble their fathers. It's a very old saying that I personally have seen repeated over and over again. If the parents were good---it's a good thing, if the parents were evil stinkers, not so good. It is thought that it is the brains way of making peace with your past, if they were mean, that you can win over them---if they were good---well, you want to have that goodness with you always. That's why we must put God first---He is our example.
