  • 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

You know what's funny?

You know what's funny? Is when the Pharisees prove Jesus right. I mean, they hated Him so deeply, went throught deep thought and put great effort into making him look foolish, but then just turn around and show that He knew what he was talking about.

Luke 4:23-29

He telles them He knows what their thinking, and He tells them that they're not going to accept Him or His message. So what do they do? They get mad because of what He says and kick Him out of town....You would've thought that they had a little more foresight than that...Pharisees, their like sock-puppets, talk a lot, but no brain power.

You're right, that is funny.

Another one with the Pharisee's that just makes me -roll-, is in John 9...about the blind man who Jesus healed. They take him into the chambers & question him, bring in his parents & question them, finally ask him for like the 3rd or 4th time about his healing & he says (basically) "Oh, I get it ...you must want to be his disciples, too!" (John 9:27). Ohhhh, they did not like that.

They really were some bone-headed cats, those Pharisees.
