  • 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.

    Foreign aid spending

    The more we have the more we want. This is very true. The government of this country considers us poor if we do not have sky tv or a mobile phone. Since when have these been essential items. A roof a bed and 3 meals a day are all we need to sustain our bodies. The real poor of this world cannot...

    The Benefits System

    It would be better if work pays. Due to the high cost of housing (mortgages and rents, especially in the south) minimum wages would need to be a lot higher than they are now. Though I see there are a minority who do abuse the system, most are honest people in need of support, who would rather...
