• 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.

Harris has picked the socialism-praising governor of Minnesota as her running mate to create the most far-left ticket in American history

Funny enough she either does not know history or she was not thinking about EVs when she picked him; since if I remember correctly MN has voted for dems in presidental elections for decades. Yet one of the big things with the PA governor was him being from a swing state where people may actually use that as a tie breaker of sorts.

As I wrote on the other existing thread:


I look forward to the VP debate (assuming there is one).

The pretend hillibilly, Venture capatilist with a Harvard degree vs the public high school teacher/coach, Army NG Master Sergeant (enlisted at age 17), Congressman and Governor.

So, again, the criticism is simply that he a "leftist"?

As a Christian, all I can say is “Yikes!”
And this... is being a "leftist" somehow the antithesis of being a Christian? I'm sure there are a whole group of Christians on this board you could have that discussion with.

I swear, some of these posters should go find the online spaces where *self-described* American leftists and Marxists hang out and see what they think of Walz, Harris, Biden, the Democratic party, and all of the politicians the CF right call "Marxist" or "Leftist". It's pretty harsh.

That's really all that needs said. The Democrats themselves when praising his accomplishments are writing opposition research.

I have no idea why you say that. I thought Jesus was a socialist.
nope Jesus told His followers to provide for people not the government. Additionally Jesus had exspections of the people receiving the assistance that is to say that you are expected to do your part the whole give a man a fish you feed hem for a day teach a man how to fish and you feed him for life.

What a socialist monster...his state provides tuition for college and free breakfest/lunchs for school kids.
There is no such thing as free taes pay for that and frankly as it relates to te kids it is the PARENT"S job to provide for them. Now, if a family needs help that is one thing, but it should be limited both in scope and time.

I agree that A LOT of our society's problems would be resolve if all parents fulfilled their parental responsibilities. In the real world, that simply is not the case. I have not looked into Minnesota's school meal program, but I suspect there are limitations based on income, etc.

No it doesn’t. Governments don’t produce income. That money comes from people.

Well, you’d be wrong.
So he didn't give out free fish to the crowd?

Did I miss the parable about free-market capitalism?
