• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

This is ludicrous!

hey thats cool to post expereinces, it lets me understand more of your Pionts of views.
I couldnt say that I think your expereinces are Real, but at the same time I dont mean to say they are not positive...if that makes sense.

I really enjoy reading others validations for their faith...not to make fun, cause I know it is personally sacred, but to try and understand.

i agree to, i think its interesting...that cool, that you are trying to understand different faiths, but i personally wouldnt doubt anothers experience though, but of course you couldnt know or think it was true by someone just explaining in words...words just dont do it as far as "proof" goes...

Why is it that everytime a thread about Wicca is put up it ends up in arguing back and forth...:( I have a headache from all this arguing and not to mention the number of the same kind of thread with arguing about Wicca(i think I counted 7). Obviosly there are alot of people here that are too full of themselves and think that they are above all, and "how dare anyone have a different view".

Yes well that is the internet for you, its the same all over it.

You know, I was happy at first on finding this forum because I thought it would be great to share and connect with those of other faiths and try to see eye to eye, and to clear up these crazy idea about wicca, but all I see here is condemnation and bigotry.

Thats not true, its not ALL you see at all, there are several Christians here that have been supportive, I am one of them. Look if you are going to rant against silly generalisations and broad statements its not a good idea to then use them yourself.

All I have been doing is arguing myself in circles trying to defend my beliefs from these crazy accusations. I don't think I will be coming here anymore, it is too angering to see people that are so ignorant and intolerant of the diversity that is the human race. I'll probably linger for a bit, but i will not be posting to any of these arguments, I am done arguing.

Well its not worth getting worked up about, you are never going to get everyone to accept you, no one ever manages that. Sooner or later we have to accept that the world has a proportion of people in it that are never going to accept us, who ever we are.

no, it would not be an attack...it would be your opinion
Giving an opinion is not the same as verbally attacking someones religion

Exactly!

hey ghost,
if you would have read the entirety of the thread you would have realised this issue has already been resolved several pages back,
Thats not true, its not ALL you see at all, there are several Christians here that have been supportive, I am one of them. Look if you are going to rant against silly generalisations and broad statements its not a good idea to then use them yourself.
I did mention in another part that there is alot of good peopel non here...what was referring to is the recent threads before i wrote that were completly derailed by a few people being bigotruos and hateful, that is why i made this thread...they apologised and we all made up and its all cool now...i really do wirsh poeple wouldnt jsut jump in on a thread without reading all of it to see where the argument is actaully at, because thi thing has already been settled.
Well its not worth getting worked up about, you are never going to get everyone to accept you, no one ever manages that. Sooner or later we have to accept that the world has a proportion of people in it that are never going to accept us, who ever we are.
Again, if you would have read the entire thread, you would have no need to make this statment because i made htis clear as well, I dont have a problem, with christians not accepting cuz i know most wont, it was the hateful and bigotrous remarks and attitude i was getting bothered by.

Never mind, its about time I made a prat of myself again.
