  • 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.

Are you are asking why non-religious people have a view on Trump's moral outlook? It is because the presidency of the USA has a bearing on the lives of other nations. What kind of person the President is is important to us.

Are you are asking why non-religious people express a view on Trump's moral framework? It is because moral principles are not exclusively religious. Non-religious people have them too.

In my view Trump has not displayed much in the way of religious principles - and yes, non-religious people can have a view on them.
IMO there is a lot of hypocrisy in judging Trumps moral character while not judging the other side with the same standards.

The "other side" did not boast about sexual assault.

I am in all in favour of even-handedness. This is about Trump's moral character (or religious principles). When we have established some standards we should use them for everybody.

In my opinion Trump has shown contempt for women by his conduct. This standard should apply to all. I am not aware of anything comparable from Harris. Perhaps I have missed something.

In my view Trump has told many lies. A recent example is his fabrication about immigrants in Ohio eating pets, which he repeated (I have the transcript). I don't think anybody else has lied about eating cats or dogs either (except his running mate). An older, much more serious lie is his lie that the 2020 election was rigged in favour of the Democrat candidate. No other politician of any party has lied about the presidential election result as far as I know. Maybe somebody has an example.

What's Kamala done for 4 years and why do you think that the people who intentionally broke the country can now turn around, or would even want to turn around, and fix what they broke?

When Trump was in office it was far far far far better than this destruction.
Kamala Harris is the VP, not the President. She has little authority to impact policy.

The Biden administration has been very successful leading America out of a very bad crisis. The COVID-19 pandemic critically damaged the U.S. health and economic status. In the past few years, we suffered run away inflation that wasn't Biden's fault but we currently have inflation under control and the strongest economy in the world.

I don't know how much authority the President has which can bring prices back down but I'm confident that the Democrats are better suited at helping Americans than Republicans.

Provide us with a link to any other thread where you called out immoral behavior, sexual abuse or lies by either Biden or Harris and I will give your post here the amount of credibility due.

What lies are the "other side" telling about sexual assault?
What happened to the believe the woman movement concerning sexual charges? In 2019 Kamala said she believed the women who claimed Joe Biden inappropriately touched them.

Such an allegation is a long way from bragging about grabbing women.
In fact, there is no comparison. So your what aboutism goes no where.

No just lied about it.

So Trump didn't talk about grabbing women by their ______? He didn't say that?

Or are you saying grabbing women isn't sexual assault?

What's the narrative here exactly?

If only Kamala would move to Russia. They do like her over there.
They do not. They prefer Trump, but not as a resident of Russia, but as the President of the USA

Did you bother watching it all, or just the first 15 seconds?

If you go only to 1:30, it clear that Putin is *trolling* you and you bit the bait hook, line, and sinker.
