  • 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'm not intent on anything, and once again, not promoting anything. I like discussion.

If a byproduct of pointing out poor reasoning, leads people to have a harder time defending their position... I fail to see how that's my problem. I also don't know if "undermining" traditional western Christendom views on sex and marriage is the same as undermining Biblical ideas. I think you're presupposing that. I'm just saying I don't necessarily think they're equivalent. Note, I'm not agreeing that I'm trying to undermine anything, just correcting your presupposition was all, no offence intended.

I must say, Tetra ... at least you're garnering some interest and responsiveness to the threads you've created, which is something I had hoped to gain for the thread I created in this same section. But alas, I guess it wasn't meant to be ... (or maybe I was asking a bit too much of people).

Peace,

I suspect that might be due the controversial nature of my threads. Although, I didn't perceive them as such. :)
