  • 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.

Apologist Frank Turek recently offered his perspective on whether Christians should attend the wedding of a family member who cheated on his previous spouse.

Turek is an author and podcaster. He is the founder and president of the Christian apologetics ministry CrossExamined, and he is the author or co-author of several books, including “I Don’t Have Enough Faith To Be an Atheist.”

Turek spoke to the issue of divorce and remarriage in the context of a reply to an audience member’s question at a speaking event.

The questioner explained, “My brother committed adultery against his wife, and they got a divorce. And then my brother then wanted, sometime later, to marry the person that he committed adultery with. And he wanted me to come to his wedding, and I told him that I would not come to his wedding.”
