  • 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.

    Well true, but how many people would be willing to supply you with propositions that would allow you to test the rational basis of their faith. The second part of my post, which you conveniently ignored, said: "I can offer you a set of propositions by which you can test the rational basis for...

    Well my claims (re: purpose of life, Hereafter etc..) are based on Divine revelation. Presumably your remark means that you do not accept this source because it is not something that can be scientifically tested. I can offer you a set of propositions by which you can test the rational basis for...

    Hi Loudatheist Muslims will view sickness or any calamity, as a means of expiating our sins and Allah has prescribed that we respond with patience and steadfastness. It is quite common for a Muslim to discuss his illness and at the end say Al Humdullilah (Praise be to Allah)... that is to...
