  • 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.

Endless Conclusions

Mankind, although many within wish to have the last word, seems to think that we have the ultimate solutions, the die is cast. Follow tradition they say, especially in religion. God however, says to continually seek Him. In order to do so, we must doubt that which we have already learned or found, is the end. What we find as we seek, not from man, but from Him, never ends but is constant in nature and progressive. Each travels according to their own abilities combined with God's will. Beware of stop signs that mankind imposes, especially those that wish to box you into ritual and routine.
