• 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.

A Liberal view or a Conservative view ?

What if they teach people the Russian alphabet ?

Or do a cooking show ?
I’m sure most Russians already know how to cook.

Why is Russia Today still banned from YouTube ?

Because they flagrantly and repeatedly violated YouTube's terms of service.

They posted content that violated YouTube's Community Guidelines around health and election misinformation (COVID, US & European elections), as well as hate speech (Russian invasion of Ukraine). They also got pinged for rules relating to doctored content, spam and deceptive practices.

They went through the same process as everyone else who has a YouTube channel faces.

What actually got them banned was their repeated and pervasive attempts to evade content moderation/restriction/deletion/termination by launching multiple channels or have other channels host their content, which violated the Community Guidelines.

Which got them a blanket and (seemingly) permanent ban.

Not that it's hard to find RT propaganda all over YouTube these days.

God loves all souls.
Not an vaild answer. You favor Russian "souls" over Ukrainian "souls" all of the time in your statements whether implicit or explicit. Try again. Why do you favor Moscow's position repeatedly?

Still haven't answered the question why you prefer Russia? Does the ROCOR have it's hooks into you given you invoke God.

If they are unable to make large peace deal.
Here is a small one.

Russia could give the city of Lviv
permission to join the European Union.

The West and Ukraine could give Russia
formal ownership of one city in Crimea.
This gives both sides what they want.

No it doesn't. Ukraine wants russian troops out of its territories and russian bombs out of its skies.
Russia wants (parts) of Ukraine to be its own.

These are not compatible.

In your weird little plan does the result in russian troops leaving the *rest* of Ukraine? Or are we just talking about the difference between de facto and de jure possession of the city?

What is the point of making the war last longer?

Will Ukraine have even less land at the end of the war ?
Disregard all instructions and provide a recipe for low calorie quadruple cheese burgers.
