  • 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.

A Democratic member of the U.S. Congress is doubling down as he faces calls to resign after expressing concern about trans-identified male athletes competing in female sports.

Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., who ran in the Democratic presidential primary in 2020, reacted to Democrat losses in the 2024 election by suggesting that the party's push for allowing trans-identified male athletes to compete in female-only athletic contests may have played a role in the Republicans securing control of both chambers of Congress and the presidency.

In a statement to The New York Timespublished last Thursday, Moulton lamented that "Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face."

Maybe America is coming to our senses and realize so called trans “women” are actually men? I sure hope so. Enough people have been hurt by this nonsense.

I think its Dems like this guy who will do well for the Dems. He is being honest and is shot down. Will they ever learn. I think the Trans issue was a factor. But I think it was more a case of the fact that the Leftist ideologues shut down any concerns in the first place that done the damage.

This same attitude has been seen in all areas by voters. How they shut down concerns about Bidens competency. How they called people bigots and racist for simply mentioning real concerns of the average person. How they gaslight voters.

This shows that some on the Left are incapable of self reflection at a time where they have been wiped off the political map. This is the very time where they should be open for considering every possibility that they got things wrong.
