  • 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.

Joel Berry of the Babylon Bee tweeted: “This won’t be easy for people to hear, but there are only about 200 professed Catholics still living in Gaza and they all support Hamas.” Dr. Taylor Marshall explains why this is wrong and links it to Babylon Bee’s anti-Catholic past.

Look. The Babylon Bee is going to 'go anti-Catholic' from time to time. It's in their DNA. They can't help it. It will bubble up from the deep recesses of their nature.

We ought to yell when they do that. But to block them? Over-react much?

Sort of what I thought. I find a lot of their content amusing while often hitting the nail on the head on some topics. Babylon Bee never claimed to be Catholic.

I don’t know, they’re evangelical I supposed?
