• 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.

Thoughts on this?

I think that a Christian should obey God who gives clear instructions for carrying out His will. He also says that if we do not obey him, there are consequences such as wavering faith, and not being in perfect love. These two sins are enough to prevent God from answering our prayers.


So to answer your question, my thoughts on the Wanda Sykes commercial are these:
She rebuked that young man, and that is what I did with my sons when they were young. I told them, (1) It's rude. (2) It's not attractive (3) It does not bring glory to God (4) It is disobedience to God. (5) If Jesus were walking the earth today like he did 2000 yrs ago, you would never hear him say it. And if none of those reasons matter, it sounds like the speech of a bigoted pseudo-intellectual.. To summarize; it is dumb, and it is sin.
