  • 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.

    Obama and Romney

    Hope we don't have another long drawn out thing like we did with Bush and Gore, but heard the Dems have hired armies of lawyers.

    Obama and Romney

    Right now it's a dead heat. I am trying to prepare for both outcomes, and it's not easy. I try to remember to trust in that which goes beyond all elections.

    So much for qualifications.....

    I looked up each of the companies you mentioned, Sharon, wanting to find out how much government financing was lost. In my short research, I could not find out if Spectrawatt received Gov finding. I also found Eastern Energy listed as AES Corporation, but I may be mistaken in that, and could...

    So much for qualifications.....

    Money wasted, jobs down the drain, nobody helped, no intelligence applied, and no one cared.

    Oops, I should have explained the CF concept of "job" better when I mentioned it.

    ABC News and Brian Ross....

    Well, this time they have been caught red-handed, and actually admitted they did not vet their "suspect"". How will I remember the Gabriel Gifford incident. So far, despite many attempts, media has not been able to pin crimes on tea party people. Not even littering.

    Spending shows attitude of all politicans

    Why switch the subject? Every time egrigious spending is brought up, the subject is not addressed, but switched. Instead of general waste, let's talk about the military, etc. It is not right to plead piteously for causes to help humanity, and then waste the funds with parties, crony...

    ABC News and Brian Ross....

    This is with with regard to the shooting in the Colorado theater, quote below. There is only one way that I can think of that this could have happened. As soon as ABC News had the name of the attacker, Jim Holmes, they combed the roles of tea party memberships, came up with the name, and...

    Obama now sues Ohio

    A fraudulent vote is stealing- and HORRIBLE. I can respect an opposing, honest vote. Please, dear Lord, protect our country from fraudulent votes and also from actual vote suppression.

    New Poll: Presidential attitude

    Goz, I went to your blog and bookmarked it. Looks like you have a lot of content there. As to the poll, I read your reasoning, and do not want to criticise your poll. I am thinking that if you offered a variation on the "he's good" poll option, you might have gotten some interesting...

    Why did some of the Jewish people turn away?

    Hi Clearly, I appreciate the suggestions and guidance you have given. “Perhaps you can start by looking at the c.e. era texts BEFORE tackling the earlier texts. For example, you might start with the very orthodox “apostolic fathers” (originally edited by the wonderful Anglican bishop...

    ABC News and Brian Ross....

    "Editor's Note: An earlier ABC News broadcast report suggested that a Jim Holmes of a Colorado Tea Party organization might be the suspect, but that report was incorrect. ABC News and Brian Ross apologize for the mistake, and for disseminating that information before it was properly vetted."...
