  • 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 imagine it went something like this.

Mary :
Honey, I have something to tell you.
Joseph :
Speak my precious one.
Mary :
I'm pregnant. I'm going to...
Joseph :​
o_O What? You're what? How could you do this to me?​
Mary :​
It's not... Let me explain.​
Joseph :​
Who's the father.​
Mary :​
God. ...​
Joseph :​
o_O What? You are going to bring God into this! What's happened to you...​
Mary :​
An angel...​
Joseph :​
I heard enough Mary. I'm tired. I'll see you tomorrow.​

As Joseph slept, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.

Joseph must have thought to himself : I should have given Mary a chance, instead of getting all mad. Trusting people is hard though.
Maybe Joseph would not have reacted that way. Maybe this is me. :D
