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 the time of year I should present this song. (blatant self-promotion)
cc: @FineLinen @Hmm @public hermit @Lazarus Short @MMXX who did I forget?
Lyrics: (note the UR reference at the end)
Title: Gift-Wrapped
Track Time: 03:04
Tempo: 128 BPM
VS 1
Bethlehem Star - traveled afar
Magi following - knew what it was
no map, no compass - to know where they are
wise men drawn to - the advent for us
CHORUS
Salvation came gift-wrapped - in swaddling clothes
no shiny paper - no ribbons or bows
Savior of the world - with baby fingers and toes
Emmanuel - God with us - just as foretold
VS 2
shepherds watched - their flocks by night
glorious light - never seen such a sight
angels singing - glad tidings bringing
rejoice, rejoice - for the newborn king
CH
VS 3
lying in a manger - a child in danger
escaped to Egypt - just in time
walked the earth as a man - and everyone knows
he's coming again - to heal all his foes
CH / ENDING

Malachi 3:2
But who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears?
For he will be like a refiner’s fire or a launderer’s soap.
