  • 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.

Consider this question......

During the last few days the heat has been gradually rising in this part of the forums , because of the difficulty in being True to God's word and also being under strict rules of CF.

Consider this question and think about it carefully.

Are there not 2 types of "ecumenism" ?

One is Spiritual and Biblical , we must strive to be like Christ in the bond of Love seeking the good of our neighbours as well as our brothers and sisters before ourselves.

Then there is PC Ecumenism , where people are hurded like sheep into a strange union of flesh.........not based on God's word but based on the political climate.

As an example,
I am thinking of the difference between old Atheism (they didn't care what you believed) and the New Atheism , which is aggresive and tries to control the "opposition" by destroying the foundation of Faith.

So it seems to me that there are 2 kinds of Unity.
The one that is based around Love and Truth ......and the other that is based upon a lie.

I have many friends who are RC and I think it our duty to try and be curteous to them at all times.........remember "speaking the Truth...........IN LOVE"

And lastly , I have a real problem knowing exactly what I can say about Cults on this Forum...........Is it OK to show evidence that the 2 priethoods of Mormonism is taken from The Freemason religion.....Joseph Smith being it's founder an excommunicated Freemason.?
