• 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.

What's on your mind?

I'm saddened by the sickening stuff people create these days. I wish people made more clean content and cared more about those who don't want to see unclean stuff. I wish people wouldn't take characters made for kids and make dirty content about them that is totally unsafe for kids. And I really wish people would properly rate their work. :/

You don't have to fill your artwork, stories, comics, videos, etc. with garbage for them to be funny and entertaining! It only makes them disgusting and something to avoid.

Rule 34: Toxic mix of wasted talent (1 Cor. 10:31, James 3:13-18) and sexual perversion involving family-friendly content (Jude 1:7, Lev. 18, Phil. 4:8).

Believe it or not, this kind of porn existed before the internet (Ecc. 1:9). They're called 'Tijuana bibles,' and they existed from the 1920s to 1960s, being obscene parodies of newspaper comics. This is why having a romanticized view of the past isn't what it used to be (Ecc. 7:10). :p

I'm talking about fanmade content in general, but I know there are companies that sadly do the same things.

Legal action against it has been done before, but it's a never-ending game of wack-a-mole, given the nature of the internet. With any character made, especially popular ones, it's only a matter of time. Because of this, I'm not surprised that some companies simply capitalize on it by salvaging what they can (Luke 16:1-15, Matt. 6:19-24, 1 Tim. 6:3-10, 2 Tim. 3:1-2).

If that weren't enough, we now need sex to sell worldly wisdom:

Sex Sells Wisdom Collage.jpg


As an enlightened society (Prov. 26:12, Rom. 1:22), what does this say about us as a culture (Ecc. 1:9, Lev. 18, Rev. 22:12-15, Rom. 1:18-32)?

It is truly amazing what People can accomplish and how we can change, when God is with us.
I continue to witness His Amazing Love.

May you feel His Presence and His Blessings as the week comes to the end. :heart:

You've seemed to be in very good spirits lately, Miss VMae. At least in the manner this post and your last few have suggested. Keep that chin up.:angel:

I basically agree with this. Sometimes a line just gets crossed that seems to offend pretty much everyone, from a godly or worldly perspective, and yet the person who made this abomination of art won't even care. "Eh, mah freedoms of expression. You uptight little choir boys can just deal with it."

I am sorry, concerning your sensitivities, if you ended up stumbling across something like that, Miss Multi.:hug:

Want to feel sluggish? Bloated? Do you enjoy meat sweats? And are you partial to unquenchable thirsts? Then why not head into Brooklyn for an evening of pizza and IPA and see just how disgusting YOU can feel.

And to think I ordered a small pizza.

Hmm. Didn't do too shabby a job of recreating this meal of baked fish and couscous from HelloFresh, if I do say so myself.:hrelax:

Heh thank you SarahsKnight :)
There is certainly up and down times but I am seeing His Path a little every day more and it is both humble me and empower me!
I see wonderful opportunities with wonderful people and a sense of purpose and, belonging for the first time. While making a difference in life for other people.

I sound cheesy but, I am Happy. :)

Bleh, we're apparently seeing Dr Strange this weekend. The MCU is okay at best. There's 30 or so of these movies. Do a few w/ the X-Men & Fantastic 4 then end it. They all seem like largely the same movie to me. & I don't mean trope-wise. I mean they need to do different tones & styles.

I do really like: the Incredible Hulk, The Winter Solider, Guardians of the Galaxy 1, Ragnarok, & Infinity War, tho.

I am sad. It never changes :sob: I'm tired of pretending everything's ok.


Still praying for your peace, sir. But unfortunately, short of some direct intervention from God resulting in what people today would only label as a miracle from above were they to see it, when it comes to finding someone to love (and it be reciprocated), this isn't going to change overnight. You must try to have more patience.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again... I really hate Bluetooth. I'm using like the most recent versions... I cannot imagine how the early versions were like.
