  • 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.

    Why don't Christians stone people anymore?

    Because if it's true it's the most important book ever written and millions if not billions of people will be and already have been damned to hell for misinterpreting it. If God loves us all so much why make it so difficult to understand the only book that matters?

    Why don't Christians stone people anymore?

    Not really, if the Bible is the word of God then I'd expect it to be quite easy to interpret, it's written in black and white but seems to be interpreted in different ways by many people even today.

    Which denomination of Christianity is right?

    With so many denominations to choose from, which one's the right one? Which one truly leads to God, or do they all or do just some of them?

    Why don't Christians stone people anymore?

    No, I would have expected them to interpret the Bible the same way that todays theologians do.

    Why don't Christians stone people anymore?

    Ok, but the Catholic Church has around a billion members, are they all misinterpreting the Bible? Sorry, I have a few questions and should maybe start new threads for them.

    Why don't Christians stone people anymore?

    Thankyou people for your responses. I do however have concerns about the many (by todays standards) completely innocent people who were tortured and killed in the name of Christianity. These killings seem to have been justified somehow by some of the 'greatest' theologians of the time. I would...

    Why don't Christians stone people anymore?

    But Jesus seems to endorse the enirety of the Old Testament law: For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called...

    Why don't Christians stone people anymore?

    I'd honestly like to know why Christians seem to be disobeying God by not stoning to death adulterers, people who work on the sabbath kids who curse their parents etc.

    Why did Jesus need to die?

    It seems to me that Jesus didn't actually die for our sins...he just had a bad weekend for them. He knew he would rise from the dead and be with his father in heaven all along.

    Freemasonry: "Making Good Men Better" Fact or Farce?

    A couple of years ago I was invited to join the masons by a friend of mine, I declined the invite because to join you have to believe in a divine entity and I cannot say that I do. My friend tried to convince me to lie about my beliefs but I couldn't do that. I found out as much as I could...

    The Flood did not Happen

    something was pointed out to me recently, that is if there was a global flood then why do we still have coral reefs? (as coral can only survive in shallow, sunlit waters at a very particular temperature) if a flood happened then coral would be extinct.
