• 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

I got on here to familiarize myself with Christian thought on various issues
besides what I vaguely remembered from my Christian upbringing, and what
was being presented by Chick tracts and televangelists. It's something my
parents, and my teachers, instilled in me: have a well formed opinion on
something, and learn about it from all possible sides. Now, why this forum
and not others? Because this one isn't somebody's personal little ego trip,
unlike other forums I've seen. It's a very well constructed site, all told.

I've been interested in this particular Forum because i like the way it's setup.

I appreciate the varety of views expressed and that there are commonalities in views among people regardless of their denominations and beliefs.

Another area that i appreciate is doing some more research on the Bible and the Qur'an as well as other religions.

Learning to get along with people can also be a benefit here. It's also a good opportunity to see what kind of thought processes people have from different backgrounds.

I think we are all "human" in our expressions from time to time and on the whole most people i've encountered here Christians included seem to strive to do what they think is right.

i actually bumped into this forum by accident, i had a poke around and there were some interesting topics of conversation, so i though, hey why not sign up, so i did, i love it here. i think it's good to have many different people from all religions on here because lets face it, the same topics, with the same poeple, with the same point of view, the same beliefs.........pretty dull isn't it really.

why do ppl of other religions get on Christian forums? just a wonderment

I stumbled upon this site while doing a google search(I don't remember what I was searching for) and found it to be very exhaustive covering everything from Heavy Metal to Halleluja! So I decided to sign up so that I can browse the non-christian religions forum (to talk about Hinduism and to learn other philosophies) and secular music forum(to chat about my favorite type of music, heavy metal-80s stuff ala Motorhead, Maiden, Judas Priest etc.

Well, I don't usually. However this one looked very interesting, and every now and then I have the uncontrollable urge to do something Christian, like join a Christian forum.

Besides, I'm always up for studying other religions.
