  • 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 Did Rod Dreher Become Eastern Orthodox?

    I dislike almost everything about Rod Dreher. He's the kind of Boomer Conservative fake-rightist who is an ally to our enemies. He's a clown and not nearly as smart as he thinks he is. He may be saved, good for him, I still want him deported.

    Why Did Rod Dreher Become Eastern Orthodox?

    Rod Dreher is incredibly milquetoast and useless as a political commentator, his decision to join the Orthodox Bros is not surprising, as he's always been a hipster lame-o.

    Dawn Eden Goldstein wants to sue EWTN: thoughts on the Catholic New Left

    I really have no use for any kind of leftist. Maybe the old union blue dogs, but now: I want them silenced by the government.

    Some of these books are by Catholics, but they all have style interest to Catholics, especially those interested in medieval society.

    Sleepy Biden forced grieving military families to wait hours — while he napped on Air Force One

    I never liked the guy, but the fact that politicians are evil and incompetent is nothing new. The fact that his own family are humiliating him like this for personal gain is disgusting.

    Sleepy Biden forced grieving military families to wait hours — while he napped on Air Force One

    It's hard to hold him responsible when he's clearly mentally deranged.

    Getting AI to seek the will of God

    Exactly, a brain might be considered a computer (we can do symbolic logic with no content and mathematical operations) but we're not just a computer.

    Hello, Christmas is Near!

    Ave Maria! I am Natalia, a cradle (Polish) Catholic from the heartland of Illinois. We're are traversing the countryside to reunite with extended family. This allows us to indulge in family time, mostly playing Minecraft with edifying media. I believe I have encountered this forum some years...

    Getting AI to seek the will of God

    It won't. From a purely technical point of view, intentionality and abstract reasoning are the product of complex machinery with specific physical components and a long history of development (whether you want to say it was God directly or through evolution, the point stands). AI is digital...
