  • 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.

I used to be into this type of thing until I realize prepping is often caused by fear of the future. And thus prepping (the more extreme versions) leads farther from Christ because we live in fear rather then being hopeful and trusting in God. If you think about it what does all this prepping do in the end? If america got nuked then it would all be for nothing. Or if we were invaded you could only survive so long. I'm not saying go out and get yourself killed near the end. I'm just saying fear is what causes people to prep. Actually if what we have is Gods, would He want us spending it stockpiling things... or using it to give to church, missions...ect. Spreading the word of God.
