• 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.

I do not understand your post. People need to know they are loved. It is a wonderful thing to love people. What is the context of your post?

I believe the post was addressing people who use the "I really love you, but I'm not supposed to be unequally yoked, and you don't live up to my religion's whatever, so see ya..." type of argument.

Relationships centered around God tend to do better than others if the partners make a habit of taking problems, plans, and goals to God in joint prayer. The power of thoes married couples is awsome. The happiness they manifest if wonderful to be around. The children of such couples tend to be happy and well adjusted, Thoes are my obeservations.

My husband and I are both atheists. We're also pretty happy. But it might just be that because Satan's firey claw is so far up both our puppetholes we don't know that we're actually miserable. :D

everytime me and my girlfriend do something, i do it wholeheartedly and not just because my hormones are driving me insane. I treat her with the most care i can and make sure that shes comfortable with whatever we're doing....honestly i know that you're supposed to be married whenever you have sex, but today's times are so messed up that people are getting "married" just to have sex. i believe as long as your relationship is strong and caring then sex is fine, just as long as its something thats not premiscuous and caught up in temptation.......
Legitimizing sex by marriage is not a new phenomonon. If you do sex you had better use at least one form of birth control. Foam and propholactics are a good idea in unison. Outercourse if better. Abstinece is better yet.

Dear Kinda confused,you has some good replies,I can only repeat their advice.God tells us in the bible,for our own good,to marry a partner of the same belief,I know a few and they are all well-matched and happy.If we believe that we would be strong and patient enough to bring our partner to believe as we do,I am sure that God will know and help too.(If we keep asking the Lord`s help in prayer)but if we blindly rush into marriage with an unbeliever,we are asking for trouble,unless one partner is completely willing to accept all difference of opinion and follow the partner in everything.Somehow I cannot believe in such harmony,and my advice to you Kinda confused is,you will only be able to lead a contented life,if you have God on your side.I say this lovingly and humbly.Sincere greetings from Emmy,a sister in Christ.

Be sure and warn her that you are now her superior and she must defer to your decisions and learn to be obedient. I'm sure that she'll be happy to hear that.
Oh! I forgot about that! Ha Ha Ha. At least she will let him think so for awhile. Ha Ha Ha.

Obviously, common ground is important. Clearly you can have common ground without both being of the same religion. Unless, perhaps, one of you is a fundie. But my mother and father have been happily married for almost 30 years and my father is a devout Christian while my mother is not. Since my father does not view himself as my mother's lord and master but rather his partner and friend, he has never forced his beliefs on her or forced her to attend church. As children, we were given the option of attending church. I'm sure that makes my entire family a huge failure.

I realize you have serious issues with Christian's so I'll not bother responding here. I didn't feel my post was negative or insulting but, whatever.
