  • 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

It took me months, of focusing on the definition of half-truth, (1989: A statement that is partly true) to realize that this was not the type of half-truth that was destroying families. The half-truth I was thinking of was 'a statement that is part of the truth, however it is totally true."

The same with abortion.

How many times have we heard, its a w omens choice over her body. Well sort of. However, as Teresa Squitti states, 'there are two heart beats', and that signifies two people, a person within a person.

So does a woman have a right to terminate the life of another life within her ? A life that could stand alone in some cases. What is the balance between a life and the inconvenience of carrying this life to term.

So take a good look at the logic of abortion, I am sure you will find alot of half-truths abound...as in the child belongs to a father as well, and a God if you believe in.

So if there is a heart transplant, does the donor take over the recipient? After all, a heartbeat signifies personhood.

Two heartbeats, and two minds both living....?

A fetus does not have a mind. The cerebral cortex is developed enough and working in order for a severely primitive mind to exist around the 24th week. However, neuro-inhibitors and lack of oxygen mean that a fetus is constantly sedated.
