  • 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.

“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.

You will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.

Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me."

John15:18-19, Matthew 24:9, Matthew 5:11.

The three student protesters were labeled as 'homophobic' after they faced insults and vulgarity from 60 counter-protesters.

Continued below.
Loyola? Catholic? Nope. Used to be a long time ago. But that was more than two generations ago. I remember it going off the deep end in the 1970's. So the question ought to be why anyone thinks a drag show at Loyola is strange.
