  • 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

In the OT forum, some of us have been throwing around an idea for a sort of Origins Theology book club. I suspect the reason there's few YECs who have responded is that the title started as "Sub forum idea" so I wanted to see if anybody was interested here.

http://foru.ms/t5911644-sub-forum-idea.html

The idea is that we'd discuss a book a month or a chapter a week (whatever we agreed on) and alternate discussion of books picked by creationists and evolutionists (as separated by the current subforums). I suggested that we start with Behe's latest book (forgot the name) but that's hardly set in stone. Participating would be entirely voluntary and we'd try to find some books that you could find at a local library so money wouldn't be an issue.

I'm very interested in discussing a number of books as I've taken up reading again and am building a new reading list. Is anybody else interested?

Hey, I actually think that'd be a great idea. I mean, I'm not sure we'd get anywhere we haven't previously, but that's certainly a book and if that's the book chosen by creationists, I'd be all for it.

Additionally, it's published freely on the web so nobody would have to buy or borrow any books!
