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.

There's supposed to be a 5000 member LCMS church in Orange county somewhere. The Church I grew up in was the biggest around here, and it had a whopping 500 members, and about 350 attend.

There is a total of around 1000 on Sunday mornings - the 3 services put together. All our worship services are contemporary (pastor plays lead guitar). Median age is 35, and 1/2 the members are originally from different denominations. We also have open communion, which I mentioned before. It's different. I think my pastor used to be a pastor in San Diego, in fact.
If you are ever in St. Louis, let me know.
KIMMY!!! Adam says hi. Nighy night everyone!!
