• 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

I don't know that there is much interest in the religion creating genre or that you'll have much support. It seems way too specialized and you'd probably have to publish it yourself. If you google 'self-publish' I'm sure you'll find something. Or maybe if a celebrity converts to your religion that would help but it's probably not likely.

I'm curious myself. What exactly is your religion? Does it have anything to do with Christianity or is it some random thing?

Maybe it's just me but I imagine that most folks would be put off by the idea of one person coming up with a new religion. Let me know what it's all about though.

You took the words right of my mouth. He's a writer who believed his own science fiction. "Dianetics" the book that started scientology was actually a bet made between L. Ron Hubbard and another writer (sorry can't remember who). He bet he could create a religion and poeple would follow it.

A friend of mine with two of his friends created their own religion. They had a Pope, Bishop, and Preist. Along with about 200 rules to follow. They did this in high school as a joke. They disbanned the religion because so many people started to follow it, it scared them.
