  • 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.

Saw a massive UFO at dawn
Why is this thread in a forum that is open only to Christians? From the description of its high speed and short duration, the 'UFO' appears to have been a meteoric fireball caused by a piece of interplanetary rock entering and burning up in the Earth's atmosphere. These fireballs are well known natural phenomena and are of no religious significance.

I have no idea why his OP is open to Christians only. @timewerx could have made the thread open to everyone. I am a Christian myself, and try to make most of my threads open to all religions. And yes, the event described from him appears to be a bolide from his description.

Fireball/bolide from 12 years ago pulled from a random ABC News article: Meteor lights up sky over Bay Area
