  • 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.

The opposite is true for me, I only know a few Travelling Wilbury songs, whereas I'm very familiar with Roy Orbison, Jeff Lynne and of course Bob Dylan. I'm not familiar with the work of Tom Petty and George Harrison (Outside of the Beatles).

You're right though, Dylan is very socially conscious and it's why I like him. I love lyrics that are challenging, multi-faceted and thought-provoking, Dylan is very good in that respect.

What is your response to people who call Bob Dylan overrated?
