It will not capture everything. It won't even come close. This is not a statement of faith. This is not a statement of vision. It's just a statement. This is a piece of our manifesto: We disagree, but.... This is a good one. We don't all agree on things. We agree on faith basics to be a Christian. Some are not Christians that come to sol cafe, which is good they feel comfortable coming, but generally we agree on what faith in Christ means. But -- big but -- we disagree on much of the other stuff and we verbalize it. Let's take communion for example, is it a symbol or is it something more? [webguy's note: see some of that discussion here and here] We can't even agree on what the word 'symbol' even means, there is no way we could agree on how to define what communion is. But, we pray and worship Christ together anyway. contributed by steve the z 2 response(s): steve the z says... Since I have posted this comment on disagreement as part of our culture there has not been any response. I hope this doesn't mean anyone agrees with me, then my post would be in vain, I think. Black Riders says... I do agree with you, but disagree that, by agreeing with you, your post has become one in vain. We'll have to agree to disagree on that. :p Post a Comment Links to this post: <$BlogBacklinkTitle$> <$BlogBacklinkSnippet$> posted by <$BlogBacklinkAuthor$> @ <$BlogBacklinkDateTime$> Create a Link more manifesto March 2006 April 2006 July 2006 October 2006 January 2007 July 2007 [back to the manifesto main page]
