  • 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.

It was the Australian Reluctant Theologian who was trying to single out Ireland as having a long history of being anti-Israel and I was pointing out that Australia also has a history of being anti Israel. NB: opposing the Israeli government policy of mass murder in Gaza is not being anti Israel: it is opposing mass murder.

I support the killing of unarmed young people at music festivals and the dismemberment of children in front of their parents at the breakfast table before they are murdered but I strongly oppose any retaliatory action and will not stand for any violence against the perpetrators.

Dose that sound about right?

What a wonderful side to be on.

Well given that I wrote nothing along those lines you must support lying about other members of the forum. Does that sound about right?

Who am I lying about? I didn't see anyone's name in my post.

No, it is being any ally with terrorism and a useful agent of Hamas.
