  • 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.

    Facebook does not enforce moral standards

    While I don't care to see such things on Facebook OR anywhere else, ultimately, it is up to parents/guardians to monitor what sites their children visit.

    Has feminism made marriage and kids a liability

    In regards to feminism making marriage and kids a liability, I am not seeing this as a case. Feminism is a REACTION that was necessary for women to be seen as a person of equal value in a marriage. There are valid reasons for women (and men) to seek a divorce. Abuse and adultery come to mind...

    Can a prochoice woman drink and smoke and party with some pot during pregnancy?

    As someone who is vehemently anti-abortion, I see any type of drug use or excessive drinking as intentional abuse and reckless endangerment towards the unborn baby. It's not just *her* body she is putting at risk ...

    Explain Your Avatar

    Quite simple ... I am anti-abortion, pro-adoption ... because innocent babies deserve to be protected and given a chance to live.

    IMO, there is nothing virtuous about obedience IF it's for the sole purpose of avoiding something unpleasant or frightening.

    Atheists/Agnostics: How Much Sense Does God Make?

    God, as in regards to the maker of the universe, makes every bit as much sense as the big bang theory.

    Is racism immoral?

    I don't see that as *true* racism. It is entirely possible that a person might have had a previous experience that has left them less than comfortable around person's of a certain race OR have had little experience around others who are not a carbon copy of themselves. In that case, it could...

    Rape conviction in OHio, Is it always rape?

    IMO, if both individuals were drinking and intoxicated to the point of black out (or close to it), it actually makes it harder to define whether or not a rape took place. Rape suggests the intent to FORCE sex on another individual.

    To Perm or not to Perm? That is the question.

    Perming is fine as long as the person doing the perm knows what they are doing and are using a good product. The best perms I have had were done in a beauty salon, with a trustworthy beautician with years of experience. Another thing that is important is making sure your hair is healthy enough...

    Conditioner

    For over-processed hair, color extending or just every day usage, the best, IMO, are those that are made by Redken.

    Transgender 6 yr. Old's Civil Rights Violated

    In regards to the OP, I agree with the school's decision, and IMO, the parents bear the responsibility for encouraging this to pursue a gender change at the age of six years old. Also, there is the issue of pandering and special treatment of one student that infringes on the rights of others...

    No ... a person who does not believe in God can still be moral.

    Is Contraception Destructive?

    As someone who is against abortion, I don't understand why anyone would not encourage the proper usage of contraception.
