  • 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.

So another non-answer to a simple question. Again I ask, SHOULD THE WOMEN DESERVE TO FEEL OFFENDED IF A MAN DOESNT GIVE HER THEIR SEAT? The answer is either a simple Yes or No with an explanation.
One doesn’t “deserve to feel offended.” In that context, you’re using it like it’s something she’s awarded. I think you mean is she right to feel offended.

And apparently, since yes or no answers is all you can get your head around, I’ll simplify it for you. No, she shouldn’t feel offended. Chairs are first come, first serve on public transportation. If he was there first he doesn’t need to yield the seat and he doesn’t need to explain or justify it to her.

My husband: “No. I don’t think most women expect people to give them a seat.”

No liberal has yet been capable of doing so. Including you and your husband.
You have been answered multiple times, but you ignored it. Just like you demanded proof of the gender wage gap, I gave it, then you ignored it.

Actually, you conveniently ignore all the posts that are too uncomfortably close to showing your thinking is flawed.
Probably another leftist liberal.
My husband? My husband is the most far left person I know. I think he tested out as the most liberal person in our group on the forum. He used to be the farthest, hardest right on all subjects. As conservative and maybe more in some respects than you. Now he’s hard, far left. This isn’t a secret… Where have you been?

Because you have proven incapable of honest discourse, we are done.
Dude, just say you’re getting schooled by a blue haired feminist, that bothers you, so now instead of facing the music, you’re taking your toys and going home. At least be honest, lol. I’m not the problem here, my guy.

Another non-answer from a deflecting liberal who refuses to accept the obvious. We are done.
You are correct that I do not wish to walk the debate-path you’ve chosen for me to travel, well spotted!

Action on Gabbard Evidence, Ex-Obama officials face federal grand jury probe into whether they promoted false Trump-Russia ties

Trump wasn't in the government when he was talking about the Obama birther nonsense. Therefore, he didn't come close to committing treason...
I didn't know you had to be in the government to commit treason. The things you learn in this forum...

Your considered opinion on what constitutes “treason” is a valid point of view, but carries no legal weight, so why don’t we drop this line of “reasoning”?

Working Class Ditching Dem Party In Droves As Some Say It’s ‘Fighting For Everybody Else’ Besides Americans

Blame all what on Trump? I said he dominated the news cycle every time he speaks, and he does. He knows it, and he counts on it. Sure, I wish the news media wouldn't respond by covering him, but he is news.


True enough. Trump knows full well when he says something outrageous (usually to deflect attention from something else he's done or doing), the news media will report it, and democrats will fall for it. But that's becoming less and less true, as democrats are getting wise to the tactic. Slow to the table, but at least they got there.

Not sure if Trump has any other tools in his belt when that one doesn't work (as it's not working for the Epstein files), but I guess we'll see.


No argument there, though moreso for Harris than Clinton. But Hilary did run a decent campaign, which could account for why more people voted for her than voted for Trump. But Trump got lucky with the electoral college, so...

I often wonder if the party's agenda would be better served if Hilary took on more of a leadership role than she has. Certainly, she can't do worse than what we have currently. AOC also seems like she's beginning to take on a more prominent leadership role. I'm not sure she's ready yet, but I do think she could legitimately grow into the role. Time will tell, I guess.

-- A2SG, both are still at a disadvantage, though, as there does seem to be a strong misogynistic streak among the electorate...but I'm still hopeful that will change....
No, she lost too much credibility as labor candidate when she muscled Bernie aside in 2016.

Australia just wasted ANOTHER $800 million paying USA for subs we'll probably NEVER see!

What is Trump demanding of you that is so horrible? I mean has he demanded an end to your social programs or something? No more DEI or transing the kids? What is it?
??? Did you read the first two paragraphs of the OP???

Darwinian evolution - still a theory in crisis.

No, you are right, and I'm not even sure where it comes from myself since it IS one long singular revelation not multiple different ones.
Well, if we're going to get pedantic, the name of the book is actually Άποκάλυψις Ιωάννου.

Action on Gabbard Evidence, Ex-Obama officials face federal grand jury probe into whether they promoted false Trump-Russia ties

... Weeeeeell... That might have not been the case. Vast majority? A few polls from the 2010s had Republicans doubting his citizenship even up to around 70% (1), but a lot more in the 50s% (2), (3)

But even that doesn't matter, because your post didn't even address the point made!


This is the post that the one you replied to addressed. According to YOUR logic, Trump is guilty of treason because he pushed conspiracies and stuff he knew was false about Obama, birtherism.
But funny that you ignored that and just went "but I'm not a birther!" instead of addressing the point about Trump.
Trump wasn't in the government when he was talking about the Obama birther nonsense. Therefore, he didn't come close to committing treason, unlike Adam Schifft.

How is it that the Catholic Church is evil?

The saints are crying out and speak of "those who dwell upon the earth." That means the saints are aware of and concerned with those on earth.


Catholics believe the Word of God should not be added to or subtracted from. The passage says "witnesses" and not "deeds." You throw out 1500 years of Christian understanding, add the word "deeds" (the passage clearly says "witnesses") and finish it off with another "of course."

I haven't thrown anything out, I simply don't believe as you and a great many others do. Nevertheless, I do believe as a great many other professed Christians have believed throughout the history of Christianity as well.

You may of course believe whatever you wish about the saints who have died, and pray to them as well of course. I have no desire to force you to, or not to do anything. Only perhaps to encourage you to study what the scriptures as a whole, have to say about communication with the dead, and the dangers doing so may pose.

Truth

The liberal tradition from Italian Humanism through the so-called enlightenment and progressive ism, down to today has all been about the elevation of man over God. This distance from God does not enhance the ability to discern truth.
I think I see the problem. The term liberal in the sentence above is an adjective, so it will be qualified by what it is describing. The term liberal infers liberty. 'Liberalism' does not equate with atheism or practicing sin, however, the term sometimes intends to imply a sentiment of liberty from religious dogma.

...it has nothing to do with voting rights in a secular state.
The draft, feminism, Ephesians, equality, getting punched in the face (?)....all smoke and mirrors. The very first of @Oompa Loompa's arguments actually excludes him from voting (which has been ignored), hence the subsequent laundry list of other reasons.
