  • 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 former first lady spoke on the podcast 'Not Gonna Lie' with Kylie Kelce​


Former first lady Michelle Obama said she can’t believe how controversial her school lunch initiative turned out to be during a recent podcast interview.

“I was trying to be strategic about aligning my agenda with something that was important to the West Wing and I thought, 'There's no way that anyone is going to take issue with trying to make school lunches healthier, getting kids more active,'" Obama said on the podcast, "Not Gonna Lie" with Kylie Kelce, released Thursday.

"Just trying to make the next generation healthier than ours and, boy, was I wrong, which is really interesting in these times with the current Secretary of Health and Human Services [Robert F. Kennedy Jr.] who is now saying some of the same things that I was saying," she added.

Kennedy leads the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement and has said that he will push for "radical transparency" on food safetyand removing artificial food dyes, chemicals and preservatives.
