  • 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

Now that's some hardcore angst :D I did my share of ruffianism as a teen, but... well now we're getting off topic!


Whoa! I was just cruising to work and I saw this!:

I'm not often a fan of pop Christian music, but man, I love the lyrics of this one! "Don't know what'll be left..." Yes, that is how I feel so often. Like life is slowly crushing me, destroying me, robbing me, tearing me apart. I wonder, at the end of my life, what will even be left of me?

Here and now I'm in the fire in above my head
Being held under the pressure don't know what'll be left
But it's here in the ashes
I'm finding treasure

He's making diamonds, diamonds
Making diamonds out of dust
He is refining and in His timing
He's making diamonds out of us

I'll surrender to the power of being crushed by love
Till the beauty that was hidden isn't covered up
Oh it's not what I hoped for
It's something much better

I love this song so much. It's so gentle and comforting. The deep, soft piano is like a running stream beneath the song <3


In the dark
In the doubting
When you can't feel anything
Oh, His love remains the same

Even through the night
Oh, silver stars will shine
Hope of glory's light
That will wake us once again

Some of the interactions and comments I've witnessed today have made me somewhat sad. There is so much coldness, so much division, so much harshness still within the community of those who call themselves Christians.

For those who remain able to show warmth, compassion, understanding, and kindness... thank you.

There should be no room for hardness, cruelty, or meanness, among God's children.
