  • 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.

Hi, I received my NABRE Bible last week. I still feel the NIV is a bit easier to read though. I noticed yesterday that after many sentences throughout a lot of the Bible, there are tiny swirling marks printed.

Does anyone know why?

Thanks

This is the bible I purchased. It's gotten very good reviews and I really like the quality. I've just never seen this before in all my 63 years.
