  • 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.

Packaged Instructions

Just like people, having seemingly two opposing ways with politics, we can as humans transcend from a selfish character running primarily on animal instinct, to an alternate, one of love and servitude to God and each other. You do realize we are the only species that knows we will eventually die. We once chose to understand, by way of the fruit of knowledge, that there were two opposing ways of the same thing (producing works/choice). We weren't so good, however, at knowing which side to follow. Most take the easiest and most self-serving way based on self-interest which leads to an eventual dead-end literally, while life itself is a continuous flow of that love and servitude previously mentioned. It helps, not hinders. It by itself cannot lead to eternal life, but it is doing the Will of God and not our own will, that leads to that eternal life. Servitude to all is His will.
