  • 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.

Ten Commandments in every classroom: Texas bill becomes law

Gov. Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill 10, even though a similar Louisiana law was deemed unconstitutional. Supporters say Christianity is core to U.S. history.

If you want schools to instill proper morals, you should look at what japanese schools are doing.

Are you suggesting that the Ten Commandments poster has magical properties? Did the flag?

What an ignorant, nonsensical comment...

Would you be comfortable if the city council in Dearborn, Michigan voted to read Quran in public schools in Dearborn, MI?

How is a poster of the Ten Commandments hanging there on the wall going to "install proper morals?" Just by hanging there?

This doesn’t really bother me. It is in Texas after all but my question for those who support this policy, what do you expect to be the result or outcome from just posting the 10 commandments at public schools? What is the aim here?

Was the rainbow flag legislated to be mandatory in schools?

Still seems to me that people proposing this don't know the Bible very well.

Be that as it may, sure, let's see how the current Supreme Court handles the issue. I think it's not going to go well for the Texas legislators.
