  • 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.

I wouldn't expect Putin to respect the sanctity of such a day, though... given that he sees Orthodoxy as mostly being a tool of nationalism to advance his own country's interests, brainwash his citizens, and oppress other people.

That's pretty much how I view all the elite, of every nation.

Have they ever met a war they don't like, or an oppression they aren't willing to engage in if it benefits them somehow?

Maybe not all of them, but clearly it's many to most of them.

No, not Jewish anymore.
Okay, didn't know.
Complaints against a person are not against the religion, especially if not in a religious setting. And knowing the posting style of said poster, I'm surprised that it took so long.
But complaints about the country seem to be.

Is it too early to call Trump’s peace talks with Russia and Ukraine a failure?
You can't force Russia to stop their terrorist act. They won't. No more than you can stop Hamas from starting the their terrorist act. Also you can't Ukraine or Israel to forget the evil people. That caused the terrorist act against them. I see Trump no better. The way he causes trouble, with America people and the rest of the world.

If they choose to live in Ukraine under an oppressive globalist nazi dictatorship, can they really be innocent?

Trump Blocks G7 Condemnation of Palm Sunday Russian Missile Strike That Killed Ukrainian Civilians, Blames Zelensky (for start of war)​

The world’s leading democracies wanted to respond. The other G7 nations — including Canada, which currently leads the group — had prepared a joint statement condemning Russia for the strike. But the U.S., under Trump’s leadership, refused to sign on, according to Bloomberg News.

Trump also labeled Zelensky a “dictator”

Trump’s team claimed they were trying to “preserve the space to negotiate peace.” But without U.S. support, the statement was dead on arrival. “You can’t have a G7 statement if one of the seven says no,” said a Canadian official familiar with the talks.

Now who could this possibly benefit?

I never thought I'd see the day, we truly are a Russian puppet.

God bless our Slavic Ruler and his German lapdog. Death to Ukraine!

I guess I'm resigning my commission and bouncing to another country before they restrict US citizens. Momma's going to be upset when she gets home.
You're a white male with a machine gun. I think you're okay.

What I hear is that you’re looking for a leadership opportunity.
