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.

Is the woke era over?
Democrats have just suffered a thorough electoral defeat and are wondering what went wrong
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., removed her pronouns from her bio last week. It was a small shift but a perceptible one.
The Democrats have just suffered a thorough electoral defeat and are wondering what went wrong. The most impactful ad of the election season focused on the far-left trans madness and had the tagline "Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you."
Democratic political strategist James Carville blames the loss on "wokeness," and there’s an impulse to optimistically proclaim "the era of woke over" because of President-elect Trump’s decisive victory.

Police are searching for a thief who entered a Manhattan Catholic church this week and stole a gold rose that memorializes a priest who perished in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Police said in a release that on Wednesday afternoon an individual entered the Church of St. Francis of Assisi on West 31st Street and “removed a gold-plated metal rose from the 9/11 memorial inside without permission or authority to do so.”
The suspect on Friday was identified as 21-year-old Deikel Alcantara. The incident was being treated as an act of grand larceny. In New York State, grand larceny involves the theft of property worth at least $1,000.

Xi-appointed bishop speaks only of 'Sinicization’ of religion, no mention of persecuted clergy

Despite 10 Catholic bishops in China in being held detention, “disappeared” or forced from their positions, the government-installed bishop of Shanghai at a conference this month spoke only on President Xi Jinping’s “Sinicization” of religion, without mentioning hoped-for pastoral plans.
Shen Bin, installed as bishop of Shanghai by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on April 4, 2023 — more than three months before Pope Francis officially “appointed” him to the post — did not mention the prior month’s Vatican Synod or the resulting papal documents at the Nov. 4-6 conference on Sinicization, according to human rights magazine Bitter Winter.
“On the contrary, he focused on ‘Sinicization,’ which, as it is now clear, does not mean adapting religion to Chinese customs but to the CCP’s ideology,” Bitter Winter reported. “An optimist could object that Bishop Shen Bin did not explicitly tell Shanghai Catholics ‘not’ to listen to the pope’s teachings, which oppose the CCP’s ideas on key matters such as abortion and the role of religion in society. But for a bishop ignoring the pope and his documents in such solemn events is tantamount to rejecting them.”

The leaders of President-elect Donald Trump's proposed Department of Government Efficiency have indicated that funding for the nation's largest abortion provider may be on the chopping block as they seek to make drastic reductions to government spending.
Billionaire Elon Musk and former 2024 Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy discussed their plans as Trump put them in charge of the new department in an op-ed for The Wall Street Journal published Wednesday.
Stressing that they intend to serve as "outside volunteers, not federal officials or employees," Musk and Ramaswamy highlighted their plans to assist "the Trump transition team to identify and hire a lean team of small-government crusaders, including some of the sharpest technical and legal minds in America."

Bible college says human trafficking claims by former students fueled by T visa scheme
- By Michie
Officials at Olivet University, a Christian Bible college headquartered in Anza, California, say a sophisticated T visa scheme has fueled a civil lawsuit filed by four former international students who accuse the school and its officials of human labor trafficking. A "T-visa scheme" involves fraudulently using a human trafficking claim to convert a temporary visa into permanent residency.
In the lawsuit, previously reported by The Los Angeles Times, the former students — Dawin Liranzo Galan, Roland Broccko, Minerva Ruiz and Rebecca Singh — claim they were confined, surveilled and forced to work sometimes for free for more than 40 hours per week when they should have been studying at the Bible college on full scholarships.
Olivet has denied all the claims.

Hezbollah fired rockets that injured 4 UN peacekeepers, not Israel: Italy
- By Michie
Two rockets exploded at a United Nations peacekeeping base in southern Lebanon on Friday, injuring four Italian peacekeepers, days after Italy's Defense Ministry clarified that Israel was not responsible for a similar attack that wounded four others.
In a statement Friday, the U.N. Interim Force in Lebanon, or UNIFIL, stated that two 122-mm rockets struck the Sector West Headquarters in Shama. Although four were hospitalized, none of the injuries were life-threatening.
Italy Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani told Italian media that evidence suggests Hezbollah, an Iran-backed Lebanese Shia militia and U.S.-designated terrorist organization, is responsible for the latest attack.
