• 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.

  • 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

Do a paper on how condoms fail about 20% of the time as birth control, and how they won't stop some diseases, like HPV, etc. Do a paper on how the incidence of STDs has escalated since the "safe sex" campaign began twenty years ago. Now, instead of about 18% of women 18-35 having herpes, almost 50% do! Explain how marketing may be beneficical to corportations but is sometimes counter to the best interest of the people.

I like being out of my mind :)

I haven't run into this yet. Errr, it's kinda obvious that some teachers kinda classify "Christian" as anyone who claims that name... they obviously can't tell a real one from an unreal one ;) But I wouldn't expect them to.

They sure have some strange philosohpies though. Like saying that you should raise your kids to please themselves, that way they have a lot to offer the world. Yeah. Right. Because you only teach them to please others for selfish reasons.

I had a hard time not laughing :D

And we were supposed to be learning about MUSIC THEORY, not parenting... ;)

Today we talked about feminism. ;)

I love debating; with a professor or not, and I don't back down from my beliefs....I think a lot of college profs throw those ideas out there just to create controversy, and I don't necessarily think it's a bad idea...too many people ALWAYS hear the secular side of sex and homosexuality; it does them good to hear the Godly side of it, too. But, I agree...I have a hard time getting wound up myself....

it was cool cos i was sick of my tutors using stupid stereotypical stuff in case studies that students were supposed to know about so i just got to share with one of them and said i dont know about this stuff. It was useful because he showed me sumwhere i could look to get other examples.

Also i got to talk to a muslim girl to because in a way she could relate and now i get to give her sum of my notes from last year to help her so it will give me an opportunity to share.
