• 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

And why are there so many of us ?
Cos God created us. Pretty easy one, brother. Anything more complex? The reason why there are so many of us, is cos some people have sex before marriage and have too many kids instead of abstaining from sex.

There are so many of us because we are too smart for our own good, like the elks on an island without predators procreating until they eat up all the plant life and then dying from starvation.

As a species we are very adaptable and able to exploit multiple environments. We also are an apex species.
Very true. According the World Population Clock (check the link,) over 8.1 billion Homo sapiens exist on this planet. But as I recall, the domestic chicken population is over 18 billion. The world's ant population may be in the quintillions (several billion billions.) Marine animal life is inestimable. And the biomass of bacteria could be several quadrillion quadrillions.

It's mind-blowing.

There are over 3 trillion trees on the planet, which is more than stars in our galaxy.

To worship God:


You might enjoy the above article. We are a Kingdom of Priests.

Why so many humans? Because our Lord is promised a great harvest.

A soul may descend into the world and live happily 70-80 years for the sole purpose

of doing a favour, either spiritual o material.

We all have a purpose, to make this world a dwelling place fit for the King of Kings.

In the Song of songs God says "I came into MY garden..........."

Where is the garden?

Here, planet Earth.

Sorry Mr Borell you were close but no cigar for you.

Nothing just "happens", to reason so is said to be the hallmark of evil.

How ever difficult it can be at times to think so, look in the rearview mirror.

The hallmark of careless, irresponsible person is the notion that something "just happened".

Blaming someone else or external circumstances.

We are the ones to "blame", for whatever actions we take.

"Oh if only I had......", "Oh if only I had not......." too late mate.

But the one above can turn things around to the positive, not because we are perfect,

but for His names sake.


Edit.
When we admit and tell it as it is or was, it is as if one is surrounded by angels.
