  • 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.

You should do some more research on the original Hebrew she'ol and original Greek  hades Which in English translate to hell.
In the Hebrew, there are different meanings for the word depending on the context it is used, one such being "abyss". It's very interesting.

Thanks.
Yes, I am familiar.

Did you know that there are 29 references to the term "realm of the dead" in the NIV translation? Two of them are in the 2nd chapter of Acts and one is in Ecclesiastes 9. (the famous "dead know nothing" chapter)
