  • 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.

That would be true of other denominations, but in this case...I don't know.

Catholics have been drifting away from the church over the past couple of decades because of disagreements with their leaders on one issue or another, but there is also a strong bond that other members feel regardless of everything else. That ol' "one true church" stuff keeps many of them in tow.

Look at the pedophile scandals. No longer can it be said that it's just a few bad apples here or there, but yet most members of the church continue to belong and attend, even if they are privately upset. Of course, that scandal is not seen; the idea of LGBT masses in the same church building, with advertising, could push the envelope.
Attending or continuing membership is tacit approval.
