  • 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.

    Democracy vs. Totalitarianism

    There are numerous stateless societies that are well documented. Capitalism is inhibited by the state, liscenses, permits taxes, inspections, etc. With the state there is never any private property, ever heard of eminent domain. Try not paying your property taxes and see how the state enforces...

    Democracy vs. Totalitarianism

    Anarchism is the absence of an imposed state, that does not mean a state cannot exist, simply that participation is voluntary.

    Democracy vs. Totalitarianism

    It is both historical and intuitive. If you know what it is and find it ridiculous I can only assume you desire to be opressed by the state or you don't understand, or you are wholly dependent on the state for your subsistence (don't worry we all are, but it does not have to be that way).
