  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

People who do not use sound Epistemology, and embrace conspiracy theories, are
NOT benign.

These proposed late changes in how votes are to be counted in Georgia, have
the real potential to themselves be interference with the fair voting processes
in a state.

Note that people who believe conspiracy theories, tend to want to legislate
to place manual counting systems in place. Manual vote counting systems
are less accurate than machine counting systems. (Why do we have machines,
counting money handed out at ATMs?)

Manual vote counting processes insert private individual's doubts, into a
counting system (anyone in the counting system, could hold up an election).

Doubts about manual counts, leads to more conspiracy theories.
More conspiracy theories tend to trigger more (strange) legislation).
The cycle goes on....


Christians should note that this sort of systemic doubt of careful
process, also happens in the anti-intellectual Christian groups, with
regard to careful biblical scholarship. The most uneducated Christians
want to hold the interpretation of the Scriptures in their own hands,
regardless of the best and most rigorous scholarship.

Well, that's the point. What good would it do them, it it didn't interfere with fair voting?

The lesson Trump's people took from the 2020 election was "we didn't cheat hard enough."
