  • 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.

    Cruz stands by refusal to endorse Trump

    I think he called Trump a "sociopath" and he has been hit with a cease and desist. I don't think he's been officially 'sued'. His ghost writer is a pretty liberal guy, so it doesn't surprise anyone that he feels this way about Trump.

    Trump, or Cruz?

    Cruz stands by refusal to endorse Trump

    I tend to agree, to a degree. Trump represents Nationalism. Populism. He really does not represent "freedom" in the sense that Cruz speaks of. Cruz prefers the idea of Constitutional law being the 'authority' in America. A populist tends to support the idea of "mob rule". Even in the...

    Cruz stands by refusal to endorse Trump

    They invited Cruz because he represents a significant segment of the Republican party. They were hoping for a little more, maybe, than Cruz was willing to do. It wasn't an "endorsement" of Trump, but an endorsement of Freedom. If Trump represents that Freedom to the individual, then by all...

    Cruz stands by refusal to endorse Trump

    Anyone who expected Cruz to give a "full throat" endorsement of Donald Trump, must not have been paying attention to anything over the last few months. LOL I don't blame him for not doing this. He has left it up to the individual voter. So be it. The Trump campaign seems more interested in...

    Donald Trump doesn't know what's in the Constitution?

    In my opinion, Trump seems to have difficulty putting words together well enough to come up with a logical sentence. Any attempt to circumvent, or diminish the significance and/or eviscerate the Constitution, is wrong and should be stopped no matter who is trying to do it. The current...

    It's official; the rule of law does not apply to corrupt politicians.

    (f) Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense, (1) through gross...

    Donald Trump doesn't know what's in the Constitution?

    So we have one candidate who seems to be unable to convey his stances on issues in a coherent, concise way in regard to the Constitution; and another candidate, and current administration for that matter, who has contempt for it.

    Deficit shrinks by a trillion dollars under Obama

    And the damage being done by over regulation, higher taxation, unsustainable programs like Social Security, Medicare and Obamacare, and don't forget the interest on the massive debt that is escalating to monstrous proportions. Until the economy improves, we will continue to accumulate debt...

    Deficit shrinks by a trillion dollars under Obama

    Credit for doubling the debt?? You sure you want conservatives to chime in on that? LOL The economy is still very anemic. I give him credit for that too.

    Is Trump a Fascist?

    Trump has been called both. He is neither. He's not the guy I'm voting for, but it doesn't matter. Accusations such as this are just ridiculous. When I make the statement that Bernie Sanders is a Socialist, I get "corrected". Heaven help me if I say that President Obama sounds like a...

    Trump anti-Mexican

    In all honesty, I have been waiting for more than thirty years for either party to do something to fix the situation. There is just no political will to get it done. I seriously doubt if Trump will do anything about illegal hiring. I sometimes wonder about all his talk about a wall. He's...

    Is Trump a Fascist?

    I have always felt that the charge leveled at so many politicians today of being a "fascist" or "Nazi" are ridiculous. It also "cheapens" the horrors of the real Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler. I have heard people using these names so easily in reference to anyone they disagree with, and it...

    Is Bernie Sanders an atheist?

    When it comes to politicians, I would have to say that their faith is quite far down the list of my concerns. Sure, I would love to believe that a President, or perspective President, would have a belief in God. I would not, however, make that some kind of litmus test. Their beliefs, or...
