  • 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.

The 20th Century Dutch Theologian Hendrikus Berkhof ?

Anyone know?

I have heard of him, yes, but I am not extremely familiar with his work. Are you interested in Karl Barth and his systematic theology?

The 20th Century Dutch Theologian Hendrikus Berkhof ?

Anyone know?
A fellow country-man - he is well-known in Holland, but moved to the USA in childhood with his parents - AFAIK all his works have been written there - known for presenting/explaining traditional Reformed theology well. I grew up in a theological environment like that.
