  • 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.

Should free Bibles be given to non-Christians?

The Pocket Testament League has pocket -sized Gospel's of John that can be handled out. I still have about a half dozen of them myself. I keep them at work, in my car, jacket in case I have conversations with a unbeliever, I can give them one.
Keep a highlighter in your pocket. You can explain and highlight things then give them the book to keep. This helps people to see that the paper itself not important, but the message is.

I still have the Gideon New Testament that we were given in High School. They distributed them at the end of Assembly one week as we were going out. Kids could refuse to take one if they didn't want one. I think a few initially refused then went back and took one. The Gideon NT's had passages to look up for various spiritual or emotional problems, which was useful (the two Bibles I got in Sunday School, had no Scripture helps!). We just got a basic NT, but some editions have the NT, with Psalms and Proverbs.
