• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

What a shame this thread turned into the AV Antic Hour show.

Technically, Genghis Khan is a title, not a name. It means "Great Khan" (or leader/ruler/king, it's not a term that neatly fits an English translation) the guy's actual name was "Temujin"

True Christianity is not a religion; it is a relationship with Jesus Christ.

So your Chicago-based anonymous book quote does not apply.

It's still called a religion. The religion of Jesus was the gospel of the kingdom of heaven.

That's Persian, not Mongolian. Similar meaning, although, as I understand it a khan is expected to be more of a frontline leader of troops.

I mean, we all know what a cluster the Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV was as a military leader. Muad'dib took Irulan off him without spilling any sweat..

Its as if you like eating crow 3 meals a day.
James 1:27
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Yeah, I merely mentioned it because I learned what the word meant the other night, having been familiar with it from Dune.
