Are people amenable to debate? Do we want to host a different forum/location for this, or set up a special space in here? I'd like to give people who want to participate the space to do so and the people who want to avoid it the space to do so. :)
I took matters into my own hands. :) I've created a discussion forum at http://groups.google.com/group/cnxmen-bob. I started off with a debate topic, but don't be put off by that; feel free to read it, to reply to it, to ignore it, to post something completely different, or whatever.
Hi think there is a place for both. Can they be linked? I place for debating and perhaps a place for just a general blog...I dunno...living on only a couple of hours of sleep as I got back to Houston really late last night after a few days Delaware...good to see a picture of the "Old place"
I was thinking of the blog as sort of a continuation of the conversations we have at breakfast, and so we would sort of stay in the same boundaries, you know, keep it clean and keep it civil, but any topic is up for grabs.
The (separate) place I've set up for bringing up and discussing more debate-intensive things is here. As far as I'm concerned, anything and everything is up for grabs there, though I'm open to whatever people want to use it for.
Here, though, I'm inclined to restrict discussion to sermon topics and such. I know debate puts some people off, and if it turns into a "stumbling block", I'd rather not.
