  • 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.

I am a Baptist and I have been baptized in a church "what-u-ma-call-it", but I have been giving this some thought and prayer and I think I am going to rededicate my life to Christ and get baptized again. ..this time in a stream or river.

Just seems right...more cleansing, to me

Not to educate you on something you might already know, but baptism has nothing to do with the cleansing of sins and should not be done if one desires to feel more godly. It is simply an outward expression of you decision to accept Christ, much in the same way a wedding ring symbolizes a marriage.
