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.

The Man who Loved Books Too Much. By Allison Hoover Bartlett. (It is about a man who loves rare books but rather than buy them he acquires them in different ways...yes theft, fraud, check fraud, credit card theft and falsified purchases, and the man who at the time held the ABAA's Security Chair Position and went about tracking him down)...
as a local Biblophile (at least as far as others who don't read or don't read often see me)... there is a bit of irony in pulling out such a work on my breaks at work or when others are around...

Beyond Good and Evil - Nietzsche
Actually a re-read; I did a book report on it in the 8th grade and got a C because, in the words of the teacher, "Nietzsche hated women."

Currently, we're reading Katharine DeBrecht and Jim Hummel's "Help Mom! Hollywood's in My Hamper". We have the whole "Help Mom!" Triolgy ("Help! Mom! Hollywood's in My Hamper", "Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed!", and "Help! Mom! The Ninth Circuit Nabbed the Nativity!")
They also like Ted Bell's "Nick of Time".

Searching for God Knows What by Don Miller. I read Blue Like Jazz and had to have more, so I read Through Painted Deserts and now Searching... I may go on and read all his books--I think he has two others. Incidentally, Through Painted Deserts was originally called Prayer and the Art of Volkswagen Maintenance!

The Stand by Stephen King. I'm just over a hundred pages in. I think the characters are very well realized.
