  • 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.

    Starting to feel I may have a problem with OCD/Scrupulosity

    But even if I have OCD or whatever (which I might not) I still don't think that excuses what I've done. I have constant blasphemous and evil thoughts and people say thoughts aren't important but "... God opposes those who are proud in the innermost thoughts." I read that verse yesterday. I don't...
