  • 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.

    Why do the less fortunate hate on the more fortunate.

    Well, i'm a very very very liberal person. I believe that there should be income caps. Any money earned above the cap is taxed at 100% by the state and used to fund programs for the poor. Basically, I support Huey Long's ideas about government, without the totalitarian leanings. In a...

    Why do the less fortunate hate on the more fortunate.

    The author graduated from my little liberal arts school. I went to check out her Thesis the other day and it turns out it's in a hard science (bio or chem, i can't remember). Who woulda thunkit?

    Why do the less fortunate hate on the more fortunate.

    Honestly, if he had enough money to own four luxury cars and his neighbors could not pay their bills, yes. I heartily disagree. Compare the job of an investment banker (who makes gobs of cash) to a person working 3 jobs washing dishes or scrubbing floors. While the investment banker job may be...

    Why do the less fortunate hate on the more fortunate.

    Even if i had as much money as the first guy i'd be angry at him. To wave that wealth in the face of a person who can't even pay their bills, and not offer to help is abhorrent. And lets just get this out that INCOME IS NOT ALWAYS RELATED TO HOW HARD YOU WORK. I suggest you read Nickel and...

    Demo Limit- Portraits of Past

    Emo

    Fugazi isn't completely emo but the instrumentation and vocal styles at times share a lot in common with the DC emo bands. For instance; listen to Returning the Screw off of In On The Kill Taker. So while they wouldn't be considered purely emo, a lot of emo influences remain from MacKaye's time...

    Emo

    ahahaha, you couldn't be more wrong. Like i said, go listen to Portraits of Past or Moss Icon and tell me that's the same thing as today's "emo."

    Emo

    Please do some research. Today's "emo" is whiny teen bs, not real emo. If you want real emo, check out: Moss Icon Embrace (The Ian MacKaye project that rose from the ashes of Minor Threat. There are a number of other bands called Embrace out there.) Fugazi (another Ian MacKaye project) Early...

    I'm currently avoiding reading 4 books in Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics and a lab write up on the synthesis of Biodiesel to surf the net. Bad me.

    The production and distribution of pornography should be made illegal.

    If that's the case, then there are far more important things to be done to improve this country.
