  • 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.

In western culture and the church, we try to answer this question in a rational way. We apply standard doctrinal statements and descriptions. We apply "scientific" personality, aptitude, and ministry survey tests. We learn to describe ourselves (and others) by categories and groups...
