• 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.

I wonder why you don't see it.

Because what you are seeing is your opinion. You just think it is objective fact. You don't realise that what you see isn't actually there, and that's why other people don't see it.

Please watch the video. I think you will unsay this.

I've shown you the evidence……
You have shown an effect and made claims about what causes the effect. You have not provided any evidence to support your claims. OTOH you have been given explanations for the effect which counter your claims. Your continued refusal to accept those explanations does not make your claims correct.

You are arguing for the sake of arguing.

Futile is refusing to accept an explanation which has a great deal of scientific support in favour of your, "I believe it, so it MUST be true" position.

Ugh…
