• 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.

  • 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

You know, this is one of those topics that truly perplexes me. I believe that sometimes mental illness is a combination of both demonic influence and an imbalance of brain chemicals or whatever else causes a true mental illness.

I am a sufferer of mental illness myself and I take medication which greatly helps me. However, I also have some spiritual problems in my life that I am working towards resolving.

well being someone who suffers from disabling mental illness let me assure that i have no doubt that the devil could be involved but i also have the good sense to know that this is physical and that there is also a psychological component ..whatever it is its real ..
