• 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.

It seems to me that forums are a place of discusion, and that discusions means different views on topics. It is those different views that enable me to consider what others say. After all, it is hard to learn from a parot, because a parot only repeats what it hears.

Of course when two peices of iron strike each other, sparks me fly. So long as nothing gets burned up, this can make the other sharper. So I learn from discusions and have learn alot from the forum.

So I am hoping a few of the posters of the Spirit Filled/Charismatic forum which is not for debate (???:confused:) will make it this way, even if and especially if they have different views.

I think God has different parts of the body, and I think we all know in part, so I'm ready to discuss things which I might not give in to but might reshape me and make me sharper. :)
