• 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.

  • 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.

“We got higher gas, we got higher groceries, we got our economy in shambles, thanks to you,” Mr. Carter, Georgia Republican, said in Savannah. “Now, can you believe Kamala Harris is going around the country trying to convince people that she is going to fix what she just spent the last four years destroying?

“That is like O.J. going across the country looking for the real killer,” he said, sparking laughter from the crowd. “Hey, if the glove fits.”

That's a horrible analogy that makes light of the circumstances. It was tactless.
Good point. The egregious damage that this administration is responsible for, is far worse than a couple of murders. That statement really was unfair to OJ.

You realize there are real people involved correct? Would you like someone making a meme about your loved one who was the victim of a crime? That's sick.

I concede the point of view that we Christians ought not make fun of people who were murdered. Nevertheless, the increasing numbers of dead Americans over the last few years that can easily be directly and indirectly linked to the policies of the Biden/Harris administration's failures is indeed thousands of times higher than those 2 murders.

When they did the last supper parody at the olympics christians were up in arms. If everything is fair game to make a point don't complain when you're on the receiving end.

Did you miss the fact that that the statement was not a meme?

Did you miss the fact that the statement was about the perpetrators, not the victims?

Did you miss the message about how much this administration has damaged our nation?

I was hoping that we could stay on topic at least until we made it half way down page 1.

I'm acknowledging the fact that a gruesome crime was referenced in jest for a political point and some christians thought it was funny.
