  • 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.

Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign is offering an array of pronoun options for job applicants on its website. The move has sparked various responses across social media platforms, with some users critiquing the focus on pronouns rather than policy substance.

Applicants to the Harris campaign can choose from traditional pronouns such as "he/him" and "she/her." But they can also choose or from a selection of other choices including "they/them," "xe/xem," "ze/hir," "ey/em" and "hir/hir," according to job postings on her campaign website.

The list also includes "hu/hu," a gender-neutral preference to be identified by one's humanity rather than gender. According to Emory University, "hu" is closest to two other genderless, singular pronouns "you" and "who."

In the circles I run in, this is pretty standard when you're signing up for something -- registering for a conference, joining an online discussion group, etc. You specify your name, your pronouns, and your contact information, along with whatever else is relevant to the thing you're signing up for. To me, this just means that the Harris campaign is following standard courteous procedure.

nine "and counting"??? Is she willing to say "we will not be adding more"?
Is there any limit to this sort of departure?


On the other hand, some seek out ex-cons and even let them speak

Ex-con's ? like Peter, John? Paul? a lot of protestant reformers?

Or is the idea that once falsely accused -- then always guilty?

Even if guilty of filing a receipt in the wrong drawer - (normally not a felony) ...

As compared to massive gender confusion and attempts at social engineering.

To put it another way - what exactly are the underlying issues in this scenario as referenced above?

Better an honest "they" than a felonious "he."
Actually I think a felonious "he." is more trust worthy fundementally because you know what you get. There is no coverup or deception. The person is caught doing something wrong according to our common and acknowledge determination of wrong. You can't get around that. So people know what they are getting when they vote Trump.

But we are all sinners and capable of doing the same just as the adulterous women was brought before Christ to be stoned.

The Biden/Harris administration has been guilty of similiar in gas lighting the nation about Bidens health and still are. Now they are doing the same with Harris. We have also heard of the secret deals being done within the Biden family and the use of public institutions like law for political gain. Especially for a party that claims to be about democracy.

But the idea of 'they' and honesty is a sleight of hand in dishonesty. It not only twists Gods truth and order but replaces 'reality itself'. Its a reconstruction of God in the image of man and not man in the image of God. We see this unreality in how trans ideology is played out in real life situations and the damage it does.

The use of Woke identity politics to gain popularity is a lie in itself. It divides and we have seen the results of these policies with DEI and its repurcussions such as the Isreal and Hamas conflict and anti-semetism and rioting throughout the world as a result of Woke immigration and economic policies.

BIden and Harris are good at the identity and feelings card. In fact Harris is a chameleon and will bend to whatever wins her votes. There is no substance or principled vision. Just more divisions along identity lines which will inevitably continue and make worse the current conflicts we are seeing.

The idea of pronouns represents an ideology that there is 'no nate sex or gender'. Subjective feelings become reality and order is socially constructed according to human ideology. That is the biggest lie and deception which then undermines the family which is the foundation of society.

That identity whether race, sex, gender in its ever increasing forms, class or belief and a growing list of other identities are the only way we should order society. Its the complete opposite of Gods order and reality. It undermines human individuality and destroys families and communities.

Thats not to say that Trump has his own problems. So I guess its the lesser of two evils. But I would rather have someone who we know is a sinner and we can then hold them accountable than someone who has no principles of truth and honesty and we can never pin them down as they look good and claim they are honest but reality tells it differently.

When it comes to policy and presidency I think Trump has proved that he handled the economy and made the world a safer place and it was no where as the Lefts narratives have been pushing for years due to their unreal infactuation of stopping Trump. As though Trump supporters are dumb or deluded.

Unfortunately a lot of people can be fooled by this PC suface view popularity politics as its appealing, its joyful as the Left is now narrating. While the otherside are weird, dictators and sinners.

Any person or party who claims to be on the side of truth and justice and has no sin is the greatest risk of being exactly the opposite. Like a wolf in sheep clothing. Equatiung being PC and all inclusive with truth and honesty is a contradiction in terms as being PC requires that people deny the truth and reality in favor of being PC.

You can't hold a felon accountable when the Supreme Court gave him almost unlimited immunity.
Given his knowledge of his immunity, he is apt to sink to even deeper levels of putting his own power above the Constitution, we the people, honesty, and integrity.
It is somewhat entertaining to watch Republicans try to equate Harris' blueberries to Trump's watermelons.
I know the difference.

I am not sure overall he was treated the same as any ordinary citizen. It seems to me he was persued like no other, people and departments fixated on the one person to the point of obsession. Its one thing to achieve justice but another for the justice system itself to be just.

Whats the difference between a felon and politicians abusing their positions to seek political ends. To me the later is musch more a breach of democracy and fundementally dishonest as it not only may abuse a certain tax or political law but abuses the basic principle of Rule of Law which is a much greater wrong and detrimental to a nation.

I disagree. There is all this talk of Trump being a deviate and dictator but when last in government did no such thing. In fact the economy was better and the world a safer place. These are the facts. Now we have people struggling financially, the great dream of owning a home dashed, warring in the streets and around the world due to the policies of Leftist governments. These are the facts.

Harris is a hard Leftist and always has been no matter which way people spin her. She has to because just like Biden was a puppet to the radical Left so is Harris. She has not engaged with any substance since being VP and has up until Biden was finally exposed as incoherent regarded as a liability by her own party lol. These are the facts.

In fact any narrative that paints Biden and Harris any other way is a plain misrepresentation of the reality for most people and therefore gaslighting the public which is dishonest. I think people see through this charade.

Not sure what blueberries and watermelon represent. No theres no agenda here. I don't think either party is worthy. But I find it ironic that you term all the voters of one party, one side as somehow having nothing of truth and value to say just because they point out some truths about the way the Left have managed their affairs.

Its more or less saying if you disagree and point out anything bad about the Biden/Harris team your deluded and theres nothing to complain about. But this is what the Left does with its media agents. It tries to recreate reality with mistruths. Harris wasn't the border zcar, she never lied about Bidens health, shes always been a moderate, Biden is as sharpe as a tack and its Trump whose incoherent, their all just weird and deplorables.

They hope is they say it enough then the narratives will rub off. But we have had years of this delusional ideology and the cracks are beginning to appear for all to see behind the lies.

The more we focus of policies, the actual substance of how we can make things better economically, on immigration issues, with business growth, on tax and inflation, on debt and the cost of living the more the Lefts ideological over reach will be exposed as just that a lot of identity and little policy substance that is realistic and workable without actually making things worse.

Well, as Kellyanne Conway says, there are "alternative facts." And, after reading several paragraphs of them, there are alternative scenarios, too.
I read so many alternative facts my head spinned.

As I pointed out in another thread on this subject, those pronouns are the options built into the template provided by the HR platform they're using. The system allows you to enable or disable the entire set of pronoun checkboxes; it doesn't give you the option of selecting which pronouns to offer.
