  • 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.

pouring is permitted if one cannot get enough water for a full immersion.

I don't remember (because I was an infant). I do have a recollection of being entirely underwater, face upward so that I could see daylight through the water, but I think its because when I was a child I might have lost my footing in the shallows of a lake and became submerged, face upward, and pulled out by whatever adult was accompanying me (mom, maybe?). I doubt its a memory of being baptized. But hey, you never know... things are funny that way.
