  • 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.

    Moses was high on drugs: Israeli researcher

    First off, what this guy is claiming is ridiculous. He has no evidence and is basing this on his own drug induced experiences. His hypothesis has no susbstance. And Andy, as far ar your 'experiences not only by Moses but by an entire body of people', well, what is that based on? The many...

    Bush urges Congress to end online drug sales

    Like 'the creator of the universe sent his only son to earth to die so that you may live in eternal bliss, if only you believe in him'? Good grief indeed. But seriously, that whole 'ending prescriptions because the CIA is making money from opium' theory would need more than a little bit of...

    'God' must work through penicillin. 'God' could also have worked through the use of a condom.

    Hinn Turns Over Material to Senate Panel

    Oh c'mon. At least give us an example. Some evidence, not proof, but evidence. After all, you must have a good reason for believing that faith healers actually heal, right?

    Hinn Turns Over Material to Senate Panel

    By your logic, since I am not a Christian, I don't have to follow those Christian teachings and I may attack Mr. Hinn if I please. I strongly disagree. I do not believe that anyone has ever been healed by a faith healer. If you have some evidence to the contrary, I would love to take a look at it.

    Hinn Turns Over Material to Senate Panel

    Someone is a little sensitive to the Benny Hinn issues. If you have a favorable opinion of Mr. Hinn, express it. Demanding the thread be closed is equivalent to taking your basketball and going home. If you think that Mr. Hinn is a good man and deserves to be defended, then lets see what...

    Hinn Turns Over Material to Senate Panel

    So a preacher that has been shown to be extorting money from his followers for his own personal gain and doing it in the name of your lord and saviour is ok with you? There very sickly and destitute people who would give their last dime to be 'whacked' with Benny's sport coat in the chance...

    Saudi Arabia Should Halt Woman's Execution for 'Witchcraft'

    For McCain, Self-Confidence on Ethics Poses Its Own Risk

    Who cares if they have information, new or old, about who McCain did or didn't have sex with. And it is leading to a presidential campaign and all of the propaganda that is associated with it.

    Protesters Storm U.S. Embassy in Serbia and Set Fire Over Kosovo Independence

    I see what you are talking about, although its hard to gather just from reading the resolution and the agreement. Do you feel that Serbia was 'tricked' into signing an agreement that they understood to be a 'promise' not to grant independence to Kosovo? Also, I noticed from other news stories...

    Protesters Storm U.S. Embassy in Serbia and Set Fire Over Kosovo Independence

    That is the entire document for resolution 1244, and I see your point regarding: Reaffirming the commitment of all Member States to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia But also, I see this: to establish an international civil presence in Kosovo in...

    Earthquakes

    This post is a sign of paranoia. In addition to what Avatar has already posted, here is a link to the USGS faq on earthquakes: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/learning/faq.php?categoryID=6&faqID=110 Although it may seem that we are having more earthquakes, earthquakes of magnitude 7.0 or...
