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.

There once was a girl from the south
Who had a really smart mouth
She got smart with her Mom
Who beat her like a drum
And now she closes her mouth

Here's a limerick I wrote several years ago about Jesus:
The Young Man from Nazareth
There once was a young man from Nazareth
Who knew that his work would be good
He took greatest care,
Did his best to prepare
To spread kindness the best way he could.
This man, gentle young man from Nazareth
Knew his father sure had the right plan
When he said to his son,
"See you when your work's done,
And, bring home everyone that you can.
"You know, son, the world's larger than Nazareth.
It's a vast world, as you'll very soon see,
It's full of good people,
And Im sure that they'll love you.
Thanks for offering to tell them of me."
One day, our young hero left Nazareth,
He packed up his things and set out
To teach everyone
Of his father's great love,
Through the land, his word soon spread about.
As he started his work with the people,
Our hero was often dismayed
To see that the love
He hoped with them to share
Was rejected, then he was betrayed.
The young man who departed from Nazareth,
With high hopes to better the world.
Now was spurned by some people
Who engendered much hate,
And this hatred on him was unfurled.
The efforts of the young man from Nazareth
Were not lost through his death on a cross.
Instead, his love was soon spread
Throughout lands, near and far,
By the people who grieved at his loss.
There's hope to be with the young Nazarine
That some day, in heaven, well be
If we practice his lessons
And learn how to love,
His promise to us he will keep.
