  • 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.

There is a garden there unknown
Where trees and flowers grow in bloom
And breezes, like in Eden, blows
Bringing forth a sweet perfume

And in this garden by a brook
Beneath the shadows of the trees
Lays open the Holy Book
Just there – where no one sees

In here my peaceful refuge I
Can pray in solitude
Where time, as in a dream, goes by
And flow’rs, and trees and earth attuned
In songs of praise and gratitude

Where I can gain again my strength
And pray to GOD my Father
Before refreshed, I leave at length
A stronger, faithful daughter.
