  • 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 like a point my pastor made:
TV runs images past us before we have any time to think about its moral consequences, pumping propaganda into our minds before we really have time to comprehend it.

Proverbs 5:6 Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them.

I also like something I read in a book many moons ago; something to the effect of:
Which is more evil? A man dressed in satanic garb with 666 on his forehead, drinking blood? or Gilligan's Island, where, despite facing everything from hostile weather to hostile natives, they never once prayed to God for help, and always got themselves out of a mess.

Not a direct quote of Turmoil in the Toybox, by Phil Phillips.

I posted in current English for I did not understand your post. My IQ is not that high.

Proverbs 3: 5-6

5 Place your trust in the Eternal; rely on Him completely;
never depend upon your own ideas and inventions.
6 Give Him the credit for everything you accomplish,
and He will smooth out and straighten the road that lies ahead.

Yes, your comments are interesting and true. if I am understanding correctly are you saying that in TV (entertainment) there are hidden evils? I have notice a flood of them in my TV watching even commercials which are sometimes worse.
