  • 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 have often wondered about the origins of what is commonly referred to as the "Mosaic Laws" or "The Laws Of Moses"......

I have not found very much information or research done on where these laws could have come from originally....

Could they have been based on the Hammurabi Law Codes??

Or were they based more on law codes the Hebrews observed while they were still in Egypt??

Has anyone else read up on the ancient historical origins of the laws and codes of conduct that were developed and enacted by the Jewish people while they were "wandering in the wilderness"??
