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 think this formula is wrong (I am not in a position to check it). Instead of "equals not" it should be "=", i.e. equals. Free will is such a complicated "solution", where as predestination is so straight-forward biblical
. Or do I get the picture wrong? Aaahhh, perhaps the formula wants to tell us that free will is not logical, that's it!
Well, I am not a mathematician - can someone help me please?!

The weak link in the discussion of free will has always been the definition. Anyone with a decent education will readily and freely admit we do not have libertarian free will. Unfortunately, that "decent education" clause omits most Christians, who seem to think that "faith" trumps (logical) truth.5solas said:I think this formula is wrong (I am not in a position to check it).

I suppose that's true, though. If you believe something, no matter how ridiculous the notion, the truth probably isn't going to phase you.
I'm glad I'm not a fundamentalist.
