  • 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.

OK, you are referring to the boob-tube version and not the original movie or play. I had forgotten that even existed. I saw the original movie with Spencer Tracy and Fredric March

Well I'm glad someone understands, because Wikipedia says it was a 1968 movie, but Googling it shows it was shown in 1988, and IMDB doesn't even have it.

So I'm not a little confused.

It used to be called the "Idiot Box."

Ever wonder why when you see the old '50's black and white version of people watching TV, they're all dressed up?

There's a reason for that.

I think the original movie came out in 1960, the Broadway play was in the mid-50's.

God put oil in the earth for a reason; but we won't go there, will we? ;)

But it's probably not the reason you think it is!

Okay --- now you guys are going to split Total Organic Compound values into "mature" and "immature?"

Now you're insulting Nature, herself?

What's wrong? Tired of insulting our God? You gotta insult your own, now?

That's the point. In our lust to "out-evil" each other we have taken to insulting inanimate objects!

It's kinda our thing.

Why do you think they call this particular data-gathering device a "ROCK-EVAL" unit?

(Now there's a joke probably only Baggins will get, maybe Frumy. But it's a good 'un)
