• 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.

Well that's a loaded question. I like a certain Christian chat room. But I would have to say honestly, it depends on who is there.

Yesterday I went to my favorite chat room and someone called me a "liar" for saying that "marriage" is mentioned by name in the book of Genesis. I gave the reference to prove what I said was true. When they said I was a "liar" again...I had to leave.

Can you usually take the high road when someone says or does something to you that is intentionally confrontational?

Understand.

Knows that the verse referred to earlier was a misquote...it's actually " For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." 1Tim.6:10 ;)

Do you know of any other Bible verses that are commonly misquoted (and subsequently given a whole different meaning)?
