• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

It’s not because of the demographic they fit into
That is how antidiscrimination laws work. If one's business is discriminating based on a demographic that is protected by law... that's illegal.

That’s true, but they cannot violate the rights of others.

Of course no one should violate the rights of others. I have yet to see this right to only allow those you approve of in the restroom.
They vs us? I don’t know. Normal vs abnormal?
You don't know? I was quoting you and your insistence they won't leave you alone. Apparently it is not a big deal since you can't even remember.

And yes, for the Christian perspective, everyone is a sinner, so that’s a moot point.
But very few Christians go around telling everyone they are sinners, however it seems somewhat common for some Christians to approach gay people and tell them they are sinners.

Men don’t belong in women’s restrooms. Women have a right for privacy and safety. They don’t want men exposing themselves. It’s about the right and respect of others.

Huh?


A black person could try to wear clothes that whites wear, could choose to talk like whites, could even put white makeup on, in order to try and please the whites that have problems with people being black.
Much like a man can put on a dress and wear makeup and he is still a man

Again. That’s because they’re all in our face about their disordered lifestyle.
