  • 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

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

One's witness is tainted by eating at the casinos, just as well as gambling at them according to " Ro 14:21 - It is a noble thing not to eat meat, or drink wine, or do anything that makes your brother stumble. "

If that's true in the no lee way sense, we wouldn't be allowed to do anything, since everything is something that makes your brother stumble. Even posting here could cause someone to stumble.

What kind of info do you need? I live about 50 miles east of Diamond Head, but information is easy to get anywhere on the south. There's not much difference where you live on the coast nowadays...

NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE IF WASN'T HIT BY KATRINA (as their house & area was).

Diamond Head = VERY FEW STORES OPEN, NUMEROUS HOUSES & LAND DAMAGED, LOTS OF PEOPLE MOVING AWAY, HAVE TO DRIVE 30 (+) MINUTES TO GET TO ANYTHING OPEN.

Has Biloxi had any such problems?

How are the elementary schools there?

Do you know the name of one or more good churches in the area (they are non-denominational / any denomination other than Catholic)?

Do any of them have a women's Bible study?

Did anyone have any problems with the tornados passing through Mississippi on Sunday? My street is a mess and I'm the only one who doesn't have significant damage. My neighbor is staying with me as his roof got blown off. Hope everyone is ok.

Man I remember this! I was at church when the first sirens went off. We had to evacuate the service. Then when the weather got better I went to the movies with a friend and there was another tornado while I was in the theater. That day we had 6 tornados. On of them touched down on Miss state campus about 5 miles from my house. Which as you know means I live in good ole Starkvegas!
