  • 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.

And I say - for all the right reasons.
They did not like him protecting our borders - now look at us.

I mean WTHECK? How does that bother another country? Stay in your lane.

They didn't like tariffs but we had more money to buy their goods.
And they also brought businesses here to create jobs.
Which means more of their goods were sold. Now they're wondering why we aren't buying?
Um, put a Democrat in office [help them] and watch sales plunder.

Wow, the Philippines and India have high confidence in Trump. Even though I do not support Trump or Biden, it goes to show how different countries may have different ideologies on US presidents.

India should since it is divided by Muslim and Pagan - two groups who don't necessarily like one another. And as terrorism goes, they were not active under Trump.

I am not a fan of Pagans or Muslim religions, but I am not here to judge them. Any Indians here on the forum, who can explain this political from their perspective?

Indian folks do look good. :) If one goes back a few centuries, I am Indian myself also, as the Romani people originated from the Punjab region.

I knew Malaysians [Indian ethnicity] and Indonesians.
The Hindus are Pagan and I think Muslims have increased and the original culture of India has passed.
Hinduism is 4000 years old and Muslim is since 622 AD. 1400 years.
Not that I agree with either.

Pray that these Indians, Malaysians and Indonesians turn to Jesus, and away from Islam and Paganism.

A day shall come when all will get an awakening to the Lord.

I do pray for all sinners.


The Prayer of St. Gertrude

Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family.
Amen.

Both the Philippines and India have had growing tensions with China on boundaries. Trump was displaying a resolute strength in his dealings with China that was seen as working to curb their ambition of control of East Asia.

NEVER ever has a sitting president with so many great things done and a great economy - has been displaced by opposition.

Either people are stupid now [dumb down college and school kids] revise history and cheat.

We have dictators pointing the finger at Trump as the dictator.
Who else has ever done that? Every single political leader who could not compete otherwise.

In a more recent poll (June 2024), both India and the Philippines have higher confidence in President Biden to do the right thing regarding world affairs than Trump.

Confidence was higher with President Obama in the White House than either President Biden or Trump:

India 74%
Philippines 94%
