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.
What EXACTLY do Methodists believe?

You might want to check out www.umc.org. This is the offical UMC web site. This is the page for the statement of belief http://www.umc.org/abouttheumc/beliefs/. The UMC church runs the gamut from liberal to conservative. The UMC Church I attend is very conservative and evangelical in belief. Every Church is different.

The UMC I attend is also conservative and evangelical, but I've felt more at "home" there than anywhere else.
And I was kinda raised Catholic, and even attended Baptist church for a little bit.
But that's just me.

George Whitefield and Martyn Llody Jones are, I think, 2 of the best known, just do a google search for their names and you will get quite a bit of information..... one in particular you might read is Jones dealing historically with Calvinistic Methodist preachers and beliefs... it is at
