• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • 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.

Free Speech is a "bad thing now"??

History has shown that neither Communism nor Marxism survives well in a context of free and open communications - free speech. That's not too surprising.

Does America "really" need that sort of "fix" for it to survive?

So then why is Hillary calling for losing some degree of free speech regarding political views?

Nobody is the arbiter of truth (except God) .... especially not the government ... they want to squelch any speech that goes against what they say (excuse me but everybody lies) ... if our speech is controlled we basically have no freedom and do/will in fact become under dictatorship ... and we are going down that road.

Hillary ... as we know is not only a bold faced liar ... but also capable of doing worse things ... shown by the Russia Russia hoax propagated by her and the democratic party.

Hillary is about power and control and so is Harris and the democratic party.

America will "survive" ... but very well may not thrive.

Hillary is not happy when someone has a different opinion than her.

She needs to move on.
