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.

Neither are vacuous, pseudo-profound platitudes.
Present an argument and defend it against scrutiny. No one is impressed by your naked assertions.

Maybe so. But it does make you look pretty silly when you call atheists et al home to philosophy.
(And maybe baseless assertions, such as found in both your posts in this thread, are a criterion of truth.
