  • 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.

In my bible research I found something interesting that I would like feedback about. In scripture, names were first names, son of whomever. I took the first names of every president in us history. Never have we had more than two with the same number of letters in their names until recently. The last three presidents have six letters in their first names. If you take that and put it with the number of their presidency, you get the numbers 644; 645; 646. 644 “aposkiasm” means to over shadow, 645 “apospao” means simply then, and 646 “apostasia” means falling away. Is this just a me, does this seem to be a message?

Unless I am mistaken, is not the numbers from Strong's simply their numbering for the dictionary that they put together?
