  • 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.

Something that just happened- I was at church today for our church work day. I was helping someone else work on the flower-bed. We were trying to life an extremely heavy concrete block and all we had were 2 crow-bars. I had the hook end of the bar down below the concrete block. Suddenly God spoke to me and said to position my hands at the far-end of the bar (towards the straight end) for greater mechanical advantage. I did this and we were able to lift the block! Mechanical Advantage is an engineering concept and what the voice said was right-on according to the laws of physics! Maybe you already knew about this but I did not!

The success of human beings is the result of God's guidance, without it we would all be disorganized and disordered.

There are a million ways to do something incorrect, but only one way to do something correctly.
