Hello everyone. I am pleased to announce the release of a new two-part  
  article entitled "Should Christians Engage In Doctrinal Debates?". This new  
  article provides a Scriptural background to explain why I personally strive  
  to refrain from engaging in time-consuming, often-futile, divisive doctrinal  
  debates. If you have ever wondered what the Christian attitude should be  
  towards this subject, I encourage you to read this new article.  
    
  You can download this new two-part article here from our Armageddon BBS in  
  PDF format in the "Food For Thought" file directory. Simply use the filename
