  • 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.

    Dobson Knew of gingrich infidelity Before Clinton Impeachment

    I read a study years ago that showed most homophobes are either repressed or closeted homosexuals. Hagaard is merely a high-profile validation of that fact. If you really think about it, what drives the homophobe to be so "obsessed" with this sin over all others? That in itself is a sin to...

    John Dean reveals Republican party shift to becoming the "enemies of freedom"

    This would be a "conservative" shift. ALL totalitarian and authoritarian governments are "conservative" and the antithesis of democracy and freedom.

    Kosminski was named as a Jack the Ripper suspect by Metropolitan CID Chief Constable Melville Macnaghten in 1894, and by retired Chief Inspector Donald Swanson sometime after 1910. DCS Steve Lovelock said: "The Ripper Murders were far from solved and remained open. This case has not been...

    Which Is More Important?

    I would probably have to agree with momalli1's point that "as long as ALL our representatives are party to what is happening, it's fine", but that stipulation was not placed on the answer to OP's question. A vote for a secret government without stipulations is a vote for a secret government...

    Excerpts From Textbooks Produced In Saudi Arabia

    Some like to point to the crusades and compare this to islamic terrorism, but there is no comparison. I will not deny that there are peaceful people who call themselves muslims and there are warmongers who call themselves christians. But you cannot judge a religion by the people who claim to be...

    federal marriage amendment gimmick

    Even if your racist accusation was correct (I see no facts to back it up), we were talking state statistics. The fact that these are "red" states has not changed. So regardless of the fact that I am neither "Democrat" or "people of a particular ethnicity", I believe an appology is in order.

    I do not agree with abortion just as I do not agree with homosexuality or divorce, but it is not my place force my beliefs on everyone else. Besides, who am I to judge when life begins? The Bible says that we received our soul with breath. Can you therefore murder someone/something that has...

    federal marriage amendment gimmick

    Perhaps you are right in suggesting that federal marriage ammendment would not be allowed to come up for a vote if divorce was added. After all, it is the "red" states which have the highest divorce rate in the nation and they wouldn't want to show their true colors. The divorce issue would...

    The Prospects for Liberty

    The problem isn't left v.s. right so much as it is conservatism killing every form of government it infects. As Rothbard points out, this is the problem with Socialism as well; "because it tries to achieve Liberal ends by the use of Conservative means" and "Conservatism was the polar opposite of...
