  • 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.

    Hi fellow Calvinists, I'd like to hear your view on God's attribute of immutability and impassibility. Do you believe God has emotions? or are they purely anthropopatic? thanks.

    RM idea of "Christian" on what basis?

    Hi, If the RM does not appeal to any creed or confession as a basis for baptism or fellowship, how does it determine what Christian belief is, or what a Christian is? What is the criteria for you to reject a Mormon, say, to become a member of your church? thanks.
