• 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.

The Far Right?

How is story about American politics?
There are Christians, Sikhs, Muslims and Hindus in America, so I was wondering if @JosephZ could give me his expert opinion on whether this is the far right.

This wasn't politically motivated. There is no left\right component to it to make a determination. You probably should have tagged Joseph in the OP or messaged them directly if you specifically wanted their input.

It isn't. It's about religious fanaticism.

I just remembered that, as strange as it sounds, there's a CF rule prohibiting talking about what someone said in a different thread. But according to some definitions given, religious motivation is "far right". And I don't think tagging Joseph a few hours sooner would have mattered since he still hasn't replied.
