  • 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.

    what is your favourite religion(s) other than your own?

    I like looking into Christianity in more depth. I've been looking into what Jesus taught, and I find it interesting. I don't think I would convert to Christianity though. Ive seen that alot of people are facinated by Buddhism. I'd be happy to answer questions if anyone has any. I think it's...

    Buddhist to Christian - May I ask some Questions?

    Thank you for answering ^^ I have a few more which I've edited onto my original post : -How could Adam and Eve ever have sinned if God had actually created them perfect, even if they did have free will? If God created them imperfect, how could a perfect omnipotent being create anything...

    This makes me sad..

    I think that story is good, and true. Anyone can quote Buddha, and not be Buddhist. I think I would like to attend a worship thing in a church one day, just to see what it is like, but I don't think I would be welcomed :sorry: because too many christians are like the preist in that story ^^ -Lilo

    Do aspies tend to be atheists?

    My younger brother has Aspergers, and he is a Christian. I think perhaps it is because he takes everything literally, so when he was told bible stories as a young child, he believed them to be true and didn't decide on his own if he thought they were true or not.

    Reincarnation

    Hi Robban, I asked afew questions on Reincarnation in a different topic, and people answered them for me. ^_^ A post on this one says that there can be no room for reincarnation in Christianity. I was told (not on here) that Jesus had reincarnated and that was when he rose from the dead, and...

    Why do you believe?

    No, I don't question Buddhism. Bad people have bad thing happen to them, because one of the four reminders is that the Laws of Karma cannot be avoided. Karma is linked directly tthe motives behid your action, so there is no need for a 'greater mind'. Karma should not be confused with fate...

    Why do you believe?

    Sure thing ^^ I find Christianity less believable because I could easily question it. I'm better suited for Buddhism because I can understand it. ... if that makes any sense. ^^ Reincarnation is controlled by a cycle, the wheel of life sybolises birth, life, and death. When the cycle is...

    Reluctance to draw from other cultures

    Hello ^^ I was raised in a Christan famile, there was no 'cross-cultural' issues, it was just a matter of accepting two different religions in one house and accepting and respecting the differences. Nice to meet you ^^
