  • 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.

You know how they have Pamper Chef parties and candle parties and Tupperware parties? Well, we've just decided to have a Tract Party!

We are ordering the sampler pack (all the tracts published by a particular publisher) from several tract companies and having our friends over to look at all the tracts first hand, then ordering what we like, online. We can split packs if we want, and we can share the cost of shipping, too.

What do you think?

(Please don't let this degenerate into a discussion on Chick tracts!)

okay, i feel really stupid. what are tracts? i've recently heard the word used several times, usually in a negative tone, but i have no idea what they are. i'm sorry i'm so dumb. :confused:

Go to www.chick.com and you can read some comic style tracts online. There are some negative ones there which I do not recommend, but there are some with a positive message as well.

There are some other links posted to different type tracts posted in other threads here as well. Look around and you will find them.

Unfortunately, Gerry likes to start trouble by recommending Chick tracts because they start fights around here.

Try atstracts.org. They have the most popular and most used tracts in the world, and they are highly non-offensive and non-denominational.

Tracts are miniature publications which introduce the gospel to people who don't know Christ. They can be great, or they can be misused. It usually depends on the person using them. I have found that ATS tracts open many doors.
