  • 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 there, So I don't understand this: "Entropy" must be subject to entropy? I suppose part of my confusion is "how much", that is: Entropy is subject to entropy, as a word, which is the least possible entropy? In other words, even though "Entropy" decays, it decays the least of anything in...

    Black Lives Matter...

    Black Lives Matter: Yes, they do. But so do white lives, and Asian lives, and all lives. The problem with the Black Lives Matter thing is that it places the emphasis on the physical life of the black person rather than on the life that should be lived by that person. Certainly the physical...
