• 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.

You know, I am thinking I like this moratorium in practice if not in principal.

It's put everything wof into one thread instead of multiple threads and massive debate and reporting ensuing.

Quite frankly I'm tired of dealing with most of the WoF junk. Not all of it is, but like the stuff you pointed out.

It is getting old. I could care less about what teaching those guys wish to post either, every bit of it is on some website demeaning it, and most of the time the website is right when you look it up.

There is no real need for that general section anymore. It is as bad as the deliverance section that got removed recently.

This was in the new thread,..

And speaking of changing names, I think the’ higher powers’ should insisted on dropping the name ‘Non-Word Of Faith’ and they can choose any name under the sun they want besides that because, (even if not intentional by some, but is by others), it appears to tell what they don’t believe instead of what they DO believe, which the whole purpose for the name of a church or group is to show what they BELIEVE. So what I have here is ONLY a temporary suggestion.


I posted in response to this, as I think it was just another potshot at you guy's with an agenda. Any name change needs to come from you, not another group.

Charimatic Non-wof is probably the best terminology that could have been employed to make no mistake of your stance before others.

I'm not posting this to incite a riot, just to let people know.

So, as far as I can tell this moratorium has only resulted in making it even easier for detractors to get a perfectly innocent thread closed. All someone has to do now is come in and accuse the OP of having WoF in mind (even if he/she doesn't mention WoF or a WoF related doctrine) and the thread will be summarily closed. Case in point: http://christianforums.com/t7166338-nt-wright-quote-cognitive-dissonance.html

:sigh:
