  • 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.

The LGBT+ aren’t the victims here. If they choose to engage in sexual activity, that’s their own fault. And choice.
The LGBT are not the subject of this. It's the recipients of $1.8 billion dollars in USAID to Catholic Relief Services who will lose clean water, food in times of famine, malaria and other disease protection.

Why, Riley, did Musk have to close an entire agency that milli, ons of desperately poor in the third world depend on for survival in order to close one Los Angeles agency helping LGBT youth?

But Michie was right. Others will help. China, a country who is potentially America's most dangerous enemy, has a huge presence in Africa. USAID used to give 20,000 university scholarships to promising African men and women. Those people are now in leadership roles in African and South American countries.

China is giving 40,000 scholarships now--and at the moment we're not giving any. What will Africa look like fifteen years from now, when the leaders of the country are China-friendly and U.S. enemies? USAID gives more than food. It insures their friendship in the present and the future. And China, potentially our greatest enemy, is ready to step in and make Africans our enemy as well.

To be blunt, I don’t like nor trust Elon Musk.
