  • 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.

Republicans are divided on fertility treatments such as IVF, with many hailing them as a boost to American families.​


Johnstown, United States:
Republican White House nominee Donald Trump sought Friday to contain the blast radius of a fierce backlash over his remarks publicly backing away from right-wing positions on reproductive rights.

The ex-president has been under fire from conservatives over an announcement that in a second term, he would ensure free in vitro fertilization (IVF) -- an expensive fertility procedure that many in the anti-abortion movement want to see curbed.

The rift widened as he hit out at his home state Florida's six-week abortion ban, calling it too restrictive and suggesting he planned to vote for an upcoming ballot measure that would make the procedure legal until a fetus becomes viable.

I don't think anyone has any doubt that Trump's position is closer to protecting babies than the extreme left -- no-limits positions within the Democratic party.

I think it's to be expected. He knows if he takes the stand of those who want abortion banned, tout court, he'll lose. He knows if he takes the somewhat less extreme position of allowing for only a few weeks, it will hamper his ability to win. He is trying to thread the needle, so to speak, and his supporters aren't helping.

That’s fair. I can’t say it’s so surprising.
