• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

When Barak Obama is talking about civil rights watch out, he is at heart an activist:

"Therefore, all government schools must teach Creationism or Intelligent Design as part of their science curriculum or else they will be in violation of the Civil Rights Act. With my royal seal imprinted, I have so decreed it."​

Obama Tells Schools The Must Teach Creationism

I would add that as a Creationist I have never advocated teaching Creation or any other religious doctrine is a good idea for educators. They simply don't understand the doctrine and it would be rare to find someone who can be objective about this. Personally I think this is a lot of fluff but I thought we might have some fun with it on here.

Grace and peace,
Mark

Actually it's a token effort to encourage civil rights. There is nothing satirical about it, it's fluff.

Then why did you post it?

He posted it because he didn't realise that it was being satirical, and having the President of the United States on side would have suited YECs just fine.

ROFL. The author specifically says it is satire, but you say it is not. Was the author mistaken when he thought he was writing satire?
