  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

How do you practice peace?

ANYHOW...

One of the things I've thought are the returning military folks. And excellent peace witness would be to help these wounded men and women. Regardless of our war stance it would be an excellent way to serve. And it's not to attempt to convert them into mennonites or quakers-not a chance to prosyletize-not time to tell them they did wrong, but just to serve, help, and love.

...ok, I guess I missed something here. Seemed like a good topic so I was going to continue the thoughts even though you implied you were not going to "bother you all again". I don't know what happened, I don't know about any mod action, I don't know anything about saying you are bad.
