  • 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.

One night a father decides to listen in on his sons nightly prayer. He stands by the door of his sons room and listens. He hears his son begin his prayer. "God, please bless mommy, daddy, and our cat Fluffy. Amen." The father chuckles to himself, "He forgot to bless his goldfish Goldy." The next day, after returning from work, his wife tells him the goldfish died. He tells himself. "Just a coincidence." The next night he hears the boys prayers again. "God, bless mommy, daddy. Amen." "He forgot the cat this time", the father thinks to himself. The next day he returns from work and finds out the cat died. That night he listens again. "God, please bless mommy. Amen." The father thinks to himself, Oh my gosh! It's my turn! Tomorrow I will make sure I don't do anything dangerous. I'll just go to work, sit at my desk and not go out. I won't cross the street or do anything. So, the next day he gets to work. He sits at his desk. "Everything is fine so far", he says to himself. As the day goes on, he begins to think that he might make it. At the end of the day, he drives home safely. A bit surprised as he enters the front door, his wife exclaims to him, "Honey, you won't believe what happened today. The mailman dropped dead on our doorsteps!"
