  • 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.

Actually, after listening to these young men speak, I support them 100%. I'm happy they're speaking up for what they believe in.

Harris doesn't like pro-life traditional Christians.

That's a fact.

I am NOT with her.

Did Harris know all of the things you learned in that interview?

Or was she responding (with aplomb) to loud, disruptive people at her rally?

Who knows? Most likely not, but we will never hear her side of the story.

Here is the clip without the edit. From this vantage point you hear “lies, lies, lies” and then maybe ”Jesus is lord”. Either way it is not clear like the other vantage point Fox edits in. Hard to say what she heard from the stage , but she is clearly reacting to hecklers, protesters, whatever you want to call them, and using humor to call them out.


Edit: fixed wrong video clip.
So the young men lied for a little fame? Eh?

Have any CNN hosts stood up on stage behind the microphone at a political rally like what Hannity and Pirro did?
Ahead of President Donald Trump’s final election rally, the Fox News host said he wouldn’t appear on stage with the President to help excite the Republican base before voters head to the polls Tuesday.

“To be clear, I will not be on stage campaigning with the president,” Hannity tweeted Monday morning, adding that he would simply “be doing a live show” from the scene.

But, approximately 12 hours after Hannity posted his tweet, he was campaigning on stage with Trump in one of the clearest demonstrations yet of the cozy relationship between the network and the Trump White House.


Hannity appeared on the podium with the president and delivered brief remarks. Another Fox News host, Jeanine Pirro, also appeared onstage with the president.


Were any CNN hosts in communication with the Democrat party on election day asking how they can help like what Hannity did?
On the afternoon of Election Day, Hannity texted Meadows at 1:36 p.m. to ask about turnout in North Carolina. Two hours later, Meadows responded: “Stress every vote matters. Get out and vote. On radio.”

“Yes sir,” Hannity replied. “On it. Any place in particular we need a push.”

“Pennsylvania. NC AZ,” Meadows wrote, adding: “Nevada.”

“Got it. Everywhere,” Hannity said.


Have any of the CNN hosts have their loved one's pardoned by the president?
President Donald Trump issued a last-minute full pardon to Al Pirro Jr., the ex-husband of one of Trump’s most loyal media supporters, Fox News host Jeanine Pirro. Al Pirro previously served a prison term for tax evasion.
I’m just saying they’re both biased is all.

I don’t think they lied about what they yelled, but I am doubtful of their claim that Harris was definitely responding to them because they yelled statements of faith. And appearing on Fox is likely for attention.

Do you have reliable news station . The Fox News channel have been proven to be a station. That completely bends words around
And completely lies.

It's an interview with the young men who shouted Christ is King...

It's not available elsewhere, the boys are young and did an interview with FOX news.

Your welcome not to listen to the boys themselves if you like, but since your here critical of them perhaps hearing what they have to say might be good.

I reckon people should assume all sources are biased and should do further research on important topics to either support or refute the important information.

But of course Reputations are a thing.
When you get certain people or organisations frequently pushing lies and especially continuing with those lies even though they have been debunked then the audience could in all fairness decide to no longer pay much attention to that source.

I would also like to point out that News organisations have many different people working for them, and they are not all aligned.
Take Fox News for example. They have their opinion shows (Hannity, Pirro etc) and they have their News shows (used to be Wallace and Smith), the opinion shows are typically less reliable and more biased than the news shows.

But that would be rewarding their bad behaviour.
Jumping up and down at a political rally, screaming Jesus is lord.

Sure we get it, you're a Jesus fan boy. OK, yes, you love Jesus, Oh, you think he is Lord, Oh and King, OK, anything else?

I mean, that would be a pretty dull conversation, right. May as well listen to a kid talk about how much they love Harry Potter, or a Tolkein fan talk about how great and powerful Gandalf is. Pretty exciting for those into that stuff and who want to hear other fan boys gush about their favourite characters. But just because you are critical of fan boys screaming at an unrelated rally, doesn't mean you should have any interest in listening to them further.

Thanks to all for their input.
I remain convinced that she knew they were Christians and responded to that fact and told them they did not belong there.
She was probably right.

Hate from everyone is sickening. What laws are you talking about that violate your civil liberties? We've had Christians since day 1 in government and there aren't Sharia-type laws today. Our laws are liberal and a reason Sharia doesn't like us.
I was commenting on how Evangelicals are pushing for Christian laws that are not secular. It seems that the Evangelical right wing would like to make Christian laws secular laws.

Freedom of religion... not oppression toward it.
The First Amendment is about the freedom to express one's faith. Even at a political rally. Nobody said anything about "religious law." Straw man.
Well, if you base your law on your religion it is religious law. I stand for secular law so you can get your Christian Sharia out of here in a democracy.

People are silly if they think "secular law" has no religion in it. Of course, there is religious law in it. It may not be theistic religion, but it is religion. All the horrors of Communism, Nazism, Dictatorships, and such are based on secularism, a religion unto itself. Do we really need to rehearse the many evils that have been carried out in the name of secularism in the last 100 years alone? Numbers are hard to find, but conservative numbers relate up toward 1 billion babies that have been aborted since the 70s. Those were not religious abortions; they were legal secular abortions. There have been so many abortions in the US that the population replacement rate has dropped below 1.7. So many children are missing that we HAVE to allow millions of immigrants to flood into the country to replace the 1 in 7 Americans that have been aborted. There are not enough citizens to run the economy and pay the taxes to keep the doors open. In the last 100 years, over 200 million have died from secular wars waged by nations with the concept of "separation of church and state" in their constitution. Most of them have been innocent citizens. Today, and since the 1950s, the human race has been living under the threat of extinction because of secular countries and their nuclear weapons, Bio-weapons, and chemical weapons. All these things are based on secular, non-theistic religion. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. We can talk about purges, pogroms, and other atrocities committed by secular nations. How many Christians died in the massacres in China? How many are still dying? Many of these are claimed by nations as "democracies."
I would not toot your secular virtue too much. That is a lot of death on your head.

A couple of apprentice Christian culture warriors. They weren't there to preach the Gospel.
Well, they did not burn any cities down or shoot anyone. Warriors....

Specify, please.
I think that this is a golden chance for you to nail your colours to the mast. How about you list some of the laws that you want either introduced or changed according to religious principles. We can then discus them.

Feel free to select the religion of your choice and tell us if it applies to either the bible or to positions held by a specific denomination or to just your own beliefs.

Thanks in advance

I cannot think of a single thing that is based purely on religion. I do not want any particular element of faith pushed on anyone.
Some common-sense elements might be introduced, mostly what the secular state can tell our kids or expose them to.

I thought that as you had so many complaints about secular laws then you might have wanted to propose some alternatives.

The concern is that her attitude toward Christians (that they don't belong here) who believe Jesus is Lord won't change if she becomes president.

Kamala Harris is a Baptist, so she is a Christian by definition.
