• 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.

you're not the only one he's asking to see the site...

 

if any of us here went to a pagan board and constantly harangued the posters and replied no thanks to things they put up, what would be the general consensus?

these boards don't revolve around you or me or any single individual here.....

sign the petition from the american center for law and justice that will be turned in to the U.S. Supreme Court at the end of the month. Check out their site:

Thanks all the same, but I support the original version of the pledge.

Don't you?  Why not?

no, it's not a joke...Glenn316 is rather new here and this being a "Christian" website I'm sure he expected a different response and sincerely thought he was doing the right thing...

and I'm absolutely positive he didn't post it to see what the self proclaimned athesits or pagans would have to say about it

I'm also pretty sure that those mentioned above get far better treatment here than Christians do on boards slanted toward those directions...

Well, if you're sure, why should I even bother to counter your claim? I don't have to mention that CF is the only biased (either way) message board that I know of that censors us, because you're pretty sure.
Anyway, the News and Current Events subtitle distinctly says, "Christians and NON-CHRISTIANS". I would expect our friend Glenn to notice that.
I'd still like to know why you think Rae was being self-centered. I'm absolutely shocked, it seems so absurd.

Oh, here's why:


The home page says 7,533 registered members and she words her reply as if the OP was directed specifically at her

that in itself would be a 7,351 : 1 shot

Ah, another for whom "Christian" and "liberal" are mutually exclusive terms. You might be surprised to know, Glenn316, that many of the most thoughtful posters on this site are liberal Christians.

As for the ACLJ and their petition...thanks but no thanks. I too prefer the original version of the Pledge.

Good greif! You'd have thought I posted this on some liberal site and not a "Christian" one. :(

"...As for Me and my house we will serve the LORD." Joshua 24:15

Actually, you've stepped into reality where the terms 'liberal' and 'Christian' are by no means disjoint.

You and your house have the religous freedom to serve the lord, but you don't have the right to force that servitude onto others.
