• 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

Rallying the Troops! Major battle to be won!

Well, if this so-called secret outreach is allowed -- and then other non-Christians demand their own secret forums, I am certainly not renewing my SS status.

This is not blackmail as I am not demanding ransom.

Call it mutiny if you wish, but it isn't mutiny either as I have other message boards that I can visit which were established a long time before 7-7-7. So I will leave this place perhaps for good if this matter isn't addressed promptly before the idea spreads and others demand their rights.

I can just see the list.

Drug users united
Prostitutes united
Abortionists united
Gamblers united

We might as well call foru.ms "sin city"

C'mon you guys! Leaving is NOT the answer. Yes, we are the minority, but if God is for us, who can be against us? This is not a call to retreat. This is a call to put on your combat boots and get in there and start fighting for what is right!

Nope...it's time to avoid any further association with the place. Although I might add for anyone reading the OP there and flipping out, the name does NOT mean what they think it means.

That said, I do not support hidden forums for any religion.

I immediately checked out the name too, and found that site and several others. Then to further investigate I typed in Satanic...and got NOTHING...just "satanic behavior" Anti-Christ attitudes...

I do agree though, no secret clubs...I mean, come on, doesn't the world have enough of them and look what it's done to the planet!!!! Geesh!

I think people are overreacting. Being an ex-occultist Christian, I can get that a special ministry is needed for outreach to them. There are special concerns.

And honestly, you probably wouldn't want to know what they are talking about. Trust me.

I'm puzzled about as to why we should make it our business, besides praying for them, of course.

Exactly.

Lisa, perhaps you should put this to a vote.
Erwin does listen to our polls.

Not ready for a vote yet, and you are right, our polls are mostly ignored anyway. Wiki math always adds up to the Liberal pov.

Anyway, I am praying that this is going to turn out alright.

What the hell?

I am outraged. A lot. :mad:



If this "forum" does go, than I will no longer moderate. I can not moderate for a site that is owned by a man who is a liar and a hypocrite.

First, there was the Wiki Reforms which resulted in the First Exodus of thousands.
Then, there was the Changing of the Name which resulted in the Second Exodus of thousands. That really ticked me off because a lot of people I considered "worthy foes" in Theology left.

Now, there is the possible Embrace of Culthood. IF this goes through than there will be a Third Exodus of thousands. Sadly, I may actually be a part of it.

But still. Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot?

As most of us know, TMBFKACF ceased being Christian some time ago. Now it is simply a secular MB with Christian areas (for now). So this move doesn't surprise me any more than it happening in Peoria Ill. It's stupid, and a further step in the profaning of once was a Christian refuge online, but hardly a reason to leave anymore than leaving the US (or Peoria). Now being part of management & staff, that is a different story ...
