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.

I suspect you are misunderstanding Romans 5. We all suffer the consequences of sin -- the loss of access to the tree of life (i.e. Genesis 3:23-24), but it doesn't mean that we all inherit sin from him. Please consider the contrast between Adam and Christ in Romans 5. If we inherit sin from Adam, then we inherit life from Christ (see verse 18). Do you believe eternal life is hereditary? If so, what the lineage?
