  • 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.

Hello @Little Lantern, I was a music major in college, and I made my living as a symphony musician (tympani and percussion) after that, just FYI. Now, back to the game :)

Hymns are typically more difficult to sing than contemporary Christian music is, but they teach us the great doctrines of the Bible, as well make them more memorable.

[@St_Worm2, what an awesome career! Music is a highly competitive vocation, and your being able to make a living as a musician is a testimony of your giftedness and dedication. Your comments reminded me of a percussion concert I once attended. I'm embarrassed to say that I went more out of curiosity than expectation, but absolutely loved it! BTW, If I had it to do over again, I would study music composition, but probably as a minor because know I could not make a living from it. Now . . .]

Let me say, that hymns and choral works are are my favorite types of music.

ICU beds are beginning to be filled again here in the States with brand new cases of Coronavirus. I wonder if that has something to do with a recent mutation of the COVID-19 virus, or because social distancing was thrown out the window during the last 2 weeks of protests and riots that gripped our nation?

Social media is good and bad. Information and disinformation, however through social media many learn about Jesus. Which in my opinion is the greatest information one can know.
