  • 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.

  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Surprised nobodies debating Texas's new abortion law.

    I am trying to figure out exactly how this will actually work in practice. 1. How would a person who would like to 'enforce' this new law go about determining that someone was pregnant in the first place? 2, How would they know exactly when they became pregnant? I imagine that this would be very...

    Ricky Schroder and Mike Lindel bail out Kylie Rittenhouse

    National Rifle Association Files for Bankruptcy

    Because they are a LOT of fun to shoot. I don't own either one and I don't really want to. When I was in the military we got to shoot light and heavy machine guns, LAWS rockets (the replacement for the bazooka that was current in the 1960s-1970s), mortars, recoilless rifles, howitzers...

    12 National Guard Removed from Inauguration Duty for Links to Right Wing Extremism

    FYI: The military does have a problem with hate groups The military has a hate group problem. But it doesn't know how bad it's gotten. It will be interesting to see what, if anything, the Biden administration does about this. From my experience in the military (USMC 1970s-80s) and what little I...

    Scientific American Editorial

    OldWiseGuy: Where did you ever get the idea that the peer review process in scientific journals is anything like you describe? For one thing... the 'peers' are usually (there are exceptions) anonymous to the person(s) whose article is under review. So they don't garner any favors for a...

    Your stance on SF Forty Niners QB Colin Kaepernick's stance...

    Really? Just because Kaepernick has access to an audience that relatively few people do he should be quiet? And who ever listened to Gandhi and King until they made the 6 o'clock news? I suspect that both Gandhi and King, if they were alive today, would wholeheartedly approve of Kaepernick's...

    Ethical land mine?

    Sounds like your SIL is an FB 'friend' of yours. Sounds like she says some things that you do not like. The usual method of dealing with FB 'friends' who say things you do not like is to tell them what you don't like and why you don't like it. This is usually done via private messages (Direct...

    Should white people be forgiven for slavery?

    I do not have the privilege to expect forgiveness. Being white I can not say, think, or feel that black people today in the USA as a group or as individuals should forgive white people today in the USA as a group or as individuals for slavery or any other form of racism from the past. It is...

    Freedom of Speech

    I haven't heard of it. I did a cursory google search and I could not find any mention of it at the University of Idaho. Do you mean University of Oklahoma? A link would be useful. But... Fraternities are allowed at universities at the discretion of the university. If they do not align...

    And when does that happen? Sometimes, sure. But whole industries and the structures of society is not based on it.

    On "sexual objectification"

    Who are these people that have such a huge influence in the media? What programs do they appear on? What mainstream media columns do they write? Yes... I am a little familiar with #shirtgate. What evidence do you have that he was at all bullied?
