  • 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

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

Should we ever stop asking?

Why do you ask a question to which you evidently know the answer?

Possibly because I love creating palindromes and playing language games?

But the larger question is: what happens if I neither knew Nita nor Ema?

Do you not know whether you know these ladies?

Do you know if I know that you know that I know that you know that I know these ladies; and do these ladies know if you know that I know that you know that I know them?

Do you mean the late John Peel, the Radio One DJ? Are you seriously suggesting he would have listened to bagpipes? :)

Was that not a sorry loss to the world? Did he not leave the greatest leagacy of well-chosen sounds of all nations, the evry best?

Did ye not ken John Peel, with his coat so gay ?

Do men not ken John Peel when he's far far away , for the sound of his horn at the break of the day ? Even at 7a.m. i the morning?

With his nasty black hounds hunting gentle little red foxes as the night draws away ?

Could anyone play a meery tune , and some bard sing in magic rhyme to stop the slauter atime, till fair people be saved from being at the slaughter, blood shed on the descrated blackened earth?

Do these things no cry out to God, and will he not He avenge this blood in his own slaughter of those guilty of blood?

An eye for an eye?

Woulkdst thou play on fair piper ,
join the trumpet and the shofar ,
we shall hear thy tune,
thy longing of heart put to music,
hear thy tears of pain and of Joy
set to a merry song atime,
and then the blood cometh
to speak of equality and justice,
crying from the ground,
the blood of
tens of thousands of saints
in robes washed in red blood
of their trial
to perfect their whiteness,
their perfect love and humility?

Why does it matter what I think? :)

Do you not believe that God cares about what everyone thinks? :prayer:

Does it not show that I care about what everyone thinks, including yourself? :hug:

Do you not believe that what you think matters?

Is that not well said?

Did St Paul not say :-

For none of us liveth to himself,
and no man dieth to himself.
For whether we live,
we live unto the Lord;
and whether we die,
we die unto the Lord:
whether we live therefore, or die,
we are the Lord’s.
For to this end Christ both died,
and rose,
and revived,
that he might be Lord
both of the dead and living.
