  • 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.

A Texas school principal has resigned following controversy over the distribution of Qurans and materials about Sharia law and hijabs.


The ‘Why Islam?’ event, co-ordinated for World Hijab Day by the Muslim Students Association, received backlash from Wylie East High School parents and national media attention.


One Christian student organised a Bible handout in response, with others holding signs that read “Bibles not Qurans”.

Tiffany Doolan, who had worked in the school district for 19 years, has stepped down from her post, as reported by The Christian Post.

The article failed to mention the reason the principal decided to resign.

"Outside voices and national political narratives" have distorted facts since February and Doolan became the subject of personal, targeted online harassment.

"A procedural mistake should not result in months of harassment, intimidation, misinformation, profanity-laced phone calls and emails, or coordinated efforts to destroy an educator's reputation and livelihood," the statement said.

The district provided over a dozen examples of expletive and threatening voicemails, emails and texts sent to Doolan and other staff, which were reviewed by The News. Many messages included derogatory language toward Muslims and Islam. As recently as Saturday, an unknown number sent Doolan an expletive-filled text message calling her a misogynistic slur.

Yeah, not an example of Christ in that.
