  • 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.

Hello :)

I need an advice about english language. I'm about to write a bachelor thesis about charity activities in books of Pentateuch (not in english). I need to write it's title in english, but I'm not sure which words and word order to choose.

What is the difference between charity and charitable activities? Do you say "books of the Pentateuch" or "Pentateuch books"?

Thank you in advance.

Just say "The Pentateuch". "Charity" is the overall concept of love and goodwill toward men. "Charitable Activities" are activities that fall under the category of charity.

"Charity in the Pentateuch" would be a fine title or subtitle. I might go with something like "Love Your Neighbor As Yourself - Charity in the Pentateuch".
