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.

Two simple commands sum up everything in the law, everything we are instructed to do. If we just get these two commands right we have covered everything
¶
Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving Mar 12:29
¶
Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one.
Mar 12:30
‘And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’Mar 12:31
“And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’[fn] There is no other commandment greater than these.”
I know people who are not Christians who do a better job at loving their neighbors than I do. If we ever got that one right we could quit fighting about everything else. The best sermons are what you do, not what you say.

OK, so the long, strange, convoluted bible, that doesn't make sense, is redundant. Drop it in the round file
