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.
Why your faith?

Yes, along side the many accounts of 'human testimony' (for Jesus, for Muhammad, for Baal, for Brahma, for Zeus, for spirits, for ghosts, for the Loch Ness Monster, for demons, for aliens, etc....................). But guess what, you most likely reject almost all the same ones the rest of us do, accept the one
And yet, the conflicting 'human testimony' is not brought forth from a lie, but instead anecdotal experiences from perceived reality.

You asked me who Jesus is to me.
To me, he is a character in a book.
Answering "no" to that, makes no sense.
To me, he is just a character in a book.

Understood, I don't need to, but I was wandering if there were benefits to adopting your faith.
So your God cares about the advancement of mankind? Good for him! I do too. I am glad that he agrees with me that we should work to advance mankind.
