  • 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.

Men now surpass women in church attendance, especially among Gen X, millennials: Barna

But these are world leaders we are talking about. Their greed knows no bounds.

Unfortunately for them. You can look at the body like the universe and you as the leader. What goes in the mind and actions is reflected in the body.

If your methods contribute to suffering, division, strife, destruction of the environment (knowingly or unknowingly), and you praise/admire your methods then you will age "normally" as everybody else.

Think of what is pure and lovely means thinking quite unlike the world does. The world's idea of "pure" and "lovely" is twisted and deceptive in nature. It usually involves spending and/or making money even though they'll say the opposite "it isn't about money".

We still need to take care of our loved ones but don't over-do it. Don't end up helping to destroy the Earth and promoting the short-sighted system in order to do it.

Its always about the money. Ask any church, especially the institutions

Probably most of the time, but they're not going to admit it or too blind to see it. They genuinely believe they're not even though they are.
