• 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

It's a collaborative writing assignment. :)

It's a system where one person starts writing a document and then other people can go in and edit the document. The idea is to have everyone working together to build an encycopedia of sorts that other people can then reference for information.

From www.dictionary.com:
wiki
Any collaborative website that users can
easily modify via the web, typically without restriction. A
wiki allows anyone, using a web browser, to edit, delete or
modify content that has been placed on the site, including the
work of other authors. This has been found to work
surprisingly well since contributors tend to be more numerous
and persistent than vandals and old versions of pages are
always available.

Text is entered using a simple mark-up language which is
then rendered as HTML. A feature common to many of the
different implementations is that any word in mixed case
LikeThis is automatically turned into a link to a page of that
name, which may or may not exist (similar to the linking in
this dictionary).

In contrast, a web log, typically authored by an individual,
does not allow visitors to change the original posted
material, only add comments.

Wiki wiki means "quick" in Hawaiian. The first wiki was
created by Ward Cunningham in 1995.
