  • 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

CNN will presenting a program called "The Two Marys", profiling the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdaline.

I always found the CNN Presents specials rather interesting, if just a little inaccurate at times.

Program start time is 8pm EST.

I'm sure it will be bogus. I am very distrustful and cynical of secular media trying to represent historical Christianity. They always have some half baked account. And that is putting it mildly.

Yes, and they always try to concoct some alternative history model, to go against the traditional (and correct) way of looking at Christian history.

Hi Michelina..:wave: How have you been? :) Michelle

Great, Michelle. I have been learning lots of Moderator-stuff, slowly but surely.

I am going to tape "The Two Marys" thing. Then I can replay it in small doses. If I watch it when aired, I'll end up with "agida", as we call it. And I don't want to expose myself to the temptation of throwing something at our TV. I generally enjoy great equanimity, but when these 'specials' attack Our Lord, Our Lady or the Church, I can really lose my cool.

That is how it works for me, too. Slow but sure. And me limiting my time on line hasn't helped my moderatory capacties any. :(

He he... good plan. I know what you mean. And it happens all too often. :(

What if one of those fundies rang your doorbell and tried to proselytize you by telling you that the Church is the harlot of babylon or something like that?

I really hate that too.

Already had that happen to me.
It's called Jehovah's Witness.

I also had to record the program as I had so many other pressing things to do when it aired here. (3pm isn't a good time to be watching TV on a Sunday)

It always amuses me when they have all these experts and none of them are Catholic.
