  • 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.

This is a link to Walter Martin's Religious Infonet. It is run by Walter Martin's daughter. On this is a page devoted to their relationship to CRI (Christian Research Institute) which Dr. Martin founded, and headed till he was called home to glory in 1989. Since then it has been headed by Hank Hanegraaff. It has been commonly believed that Hank was "hand picked" by Walter Martin to be his successor. The Martin family is stating otherwise.

Jesusong,

I read of this not too long ago, and I have to say it didn't surprise me. Although "the gospel is preached," and I appreciate the light shed on false doctrines such as evolutionism and Mormonism, I sense a spirit of accusation, competition, or condemnation, or perhaps all three, lurking under the surface.... Plus, I don't like what he says about some very godly ministers, such as TDJakes and John Kilpatrick (although I think by some miracle Kilpatrick negotiated a truce with him a few years ago).

JimM,

if you don't like televangelists, you might like Hank Hanagraaf. I almost think that if a Christian is on television, that means Hank doesn't like him.
