  • 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.

    Are there any actual liberals here?

    Ah... yes... those were crazy years here on CF were they not? On some days wonderful and other days awful. Good to see you are still here.

    How long does Purgatory last?

    Officially, yes. Some individuals within these traditions do believe in some Catholic doctrines regarding purgatory, the blessed ever-virgin Mother of God, praying to Saints, etc. What do you with someone who believes Roman Catholicism lost its way on some things (priestly celibacy for...

    Best President ever

    Food became unaffordable under Biden. My life is ruined because of Biden's economy (which, btw, is directly related to making sure they got as many dangerous illegals to invade America as possible). The ultimate goal of a Harris presidency would have been to make everyone equally poor so that...

    Best President ever

    No not referencing inflation... referencing the crisis of illegals invading and leftist lunatics choosing rapists and murderers over veterans.

    Best President ever

    I saw it happen in my own hometown... and then later both DeSantis and Trump talked about it.

    Best President ever

    We will always be able to look back and "thank" Biden/ Harris for the worst inflation in a generation. Also, if they truly were for any form of Capitalism (even liberal rainbow Capitalism), why did they make sure that as many illegal criminals invaded the country as possible? How do you...

    Judge who ordered deportation flights of Venezuelan gang members be returned faces calls for impeachment

    Thought 1: Justices have the right to question and "pause" an order to make sure it is legal. There is a system of checks and balances for a reason and a process that this (and other issues) can go through... however... Thought 2: Why on earth would a judge pick a fight on this issue? We...

    Best President ever

    As has been pointed out, the alternative to Trump would have been the continuation of Biden's policies which would have literally destroyed our economy. Kamala's policies would have led to a form of communism. There were no perfect choices. If / when the choice is between dog poop or...

    How long does Purgatory last?

    There may be a place for purgatory in the thinking of some lower-c Catholic churches (i.e. Old Catholic, Episcopal, Lutheran, etc). When we look at all the relevant passages and the writings of early theologians, it is not clear cut that it is a simple heaven / hell dichotomy. I would say that...

    Money to be made: Christian "Ex-Gay" Movement Grows, Brainwashing

    There are two overlapping aspects to this whole issue... A person can only ever rarely actually change who they are. Yes, I believe God can work a miracle and I am not comfortable saying that God is limited and can't / won't... however, as is true for so many ailments, we are most often stuck...

    Are there any actual liberals here?

    My answer is sometimes and on some specific issues. I think that in a lot of Christians contexts I would be culturally read as center-left. However, I also think that in actual liberal environments I get cancelled. Politically, I do not support "Woke" ideologies and am generally supportive of...

    Who Won the CNN Debate?

    I think Democrats have given up this race. If they replace Biden, they will have to concede much ground and also answer for what has been allowed to happen... and Trump will win in a landslide. If they keep Biden and insist he is fine, people have seen the truth... and Trump will win in a...

    Biden Debate Performance Predictions (Poll)

    We need to know who has been making all of these awful decisions since 2021. If it has all been because Mr. Biden has dementia and is incapable, his cabinet has committed a crime by not invoking the 25th. And if it is all someone's plot to abuse him and make the decisions, then they (it could...

    Biden Debate Performance Predictions (Poll)

    With all due respect, Mr. Biden should resign presidency and be admitted to a nursing facility.

    Poll - will Joe Biden Debate Donald Trump on National TV?

    You mean the Trump administration where massive protests and people within the government (from the Obama-Biden era) kept him from doing anything until Democrats took over the Senate and House in 2018 and impeached him over nothing as the entire world was swallowed up by a global pandemic...
