  • 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

    JP2's Quote on Salvation Outside the Church

    Can somebody provide me with the quote of Pope John Paul II's that is often used wrongly in support of universalism? I have Googled a variety of keywords, but I'm having little success.

    Officials: Woman's Gang Rape Story Is Bogus

    So, we're both in the wrong it seems.

    Nurse raped for refusal to carry out abortions

    Kanin said, "Certainly our intent is not to suggest that the 41 percent incidence found here be extrapolated to other populations, particularly in light of our ignorance regarding the structural variables." However, looking at it without emotion in the way, it does seem that that's the only real...

    Officials: Woman's Gang Rape Story Is Bogus

    Indeed. That's how I am on the street when somebody asks me for change. I go, "Prove you are really homeless and not just a rich man pretending to be, and then I will show compassion on thee."

    Nurse raped for refusal to carry out abortions

    Half the cases, is? Funny, because I also saw it that 2% or just 40% were false. Of course, it's interesting how some people choose the highest percentage of false reports as false while others choose the lowest percentage of reports as false.

    Officials: Woman's Gang Rape Story Is Bogus

    Nobody's saying that all claims are truthful. However, we're not going to tell somebody who claims to be raped, "Until you prove it, you will receive no compassion from me, because right now, I don't believe you."

    Nurse raped for refusal to carry out abortions

    It's better to believe that most of those women are lying than believe that half of women everywhere are raped. Personally, I don't believe that Iraq is a real place. I believe that all we see of this so-called Iraq is just scripted a la "Wag the Dog." To believe otherwise would be depressing!

    Nurse raped for refusal to carry out abortions

    I never realized that people were so cynical of rape victims. It's depressing.

    Teacher Suspended For Giving Left Wing Lecture

    If the excuse to let this man compare Bush to Hitler as part of geography is that children are mature enough for it, then I say we should let people preach religion in schools. I don't see how these kids, who we should treat are adults, are mature enough for politics but when it comes to...

    First "All Catholic Town" in America - Ave Maria

    Is anything that's being done illegal? If not, then I don't see the problem. Of course, I'm one of those people who believe that people should be able to live how they desire. I know that you aren't, but I am. Of course, perhaps I should go to San Francisco and then complain that it's too...

    Gulags For American Citizens In Final Planning Stages

    If I see it on AP, then I'll take it seriously. As for now, I won't even click on the site. Might as well link to a Geocities site!

    Teacher Suspended For Giving Left Wing Lecture

    The real question is... do you believe a soapbox would be appropriate in a math class (whether it was Bush is like Hitler but not Hitler (as the guy said) or the Democrats are like serial rapists (but not serial rapists, of course))? Remember, math can be political.

    Teacher Suspended For Giving Left Wing Lecture

    So, if I say, "Now, I'm not saying this person and a child molester are exactly the same, because they obviously aren't, but isn't it eerie how they have many of the same traits," there'd be no reason for anybody to think such a comment is out of place in a P.E. class (remember, politics also...

    Teacher Suspended For Giving Left Wing Lecture

    That said, now that I got some ice cream, I'll say that suspension was a bit extreme. I think the kid should have talked to the teacher about it, and if the teacher persisted without care, then suspend him!
