  • 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.

Crozier apparently wrote an autobiography that was published after his death, but I couldn't find it online. Here are a couple of references that I found:

[10]His late autobiography sums up his secondary education as follows: 2 years at Lima Seminary (probably 1840-1842), 2 years at Geneseo Academy (1842 to Fall 1843) and, much later, after his abandonment of the shut-door, two years at the University of Rochester. We have no records of the subjects he studied. See The Daily Messenger, Canandaigua N.Y, Nov. 22, 1923, “Early History of Ontario County Revealed in Story of late Owen R. L. Crozier.”
[11]In his answer to the seminary educated Charles Beecher (one of the brothers of famed Harriet Beecher Stowe) who criticized his scapegoat theology, Crozier announced that he would stop publication of the Day-Dawn with the September 1847 issue (TheBible Advocate, March 1848). Later he explained that he gave up the conclusions of his article in the Extra one year after he ceased publication of his journal (TheAdventHarbinger, 9/30/1849, Vol.17, No.15, p.111-115)

[1] Owen Crozier’s autobiography, published on Thursday, 11/22/1923 in the Ontario Daily Messenger of Canandaigua, NY, Vol. 126, No. 126, pp.17-24, is an invaluable source of information covering his life, genealogy and his theological evolution. We intend to deal with the latter in a more extensive study. Complete Genealogical charts starting with the Croziers of Scotland and Ireland and including some living descendants is found in Fernand Fisel, Ancestry and Family of Owen Russell Loomis Crozier, Descendants of O. R. L. Crozier, and Ancestry and Family of Maria Polly Alger (spouse of ORL Crozier) 2006, unpublished.

I went to the Daily Messenger site, but I think you have to pay for a subscription in order to search the archives. I don't even know if they would have an article from that long ago in their online archives.
