• 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.

I don't get what the story is here. Every year on the white house lawn they pardon a turkey. They PARDON A TURKEY! I realize some of you godless lefties want to replace God with government, but the white house lawn is not some kind of holy sacred ground. It's just not, and that's a good thing.

I already mentioned the Easter egg roll. Could anything be less dignified?

So you're pro-life? Don't want to see the chicken embryos robbed of their dignity?

I dont believe chickens are "dignified" at any stage of life. But thats neither here not there as these would certainly be unfertilized store eggs.

In any event, I recall an old 19th century saying about dignity and American exceptionalism - in every place on Earth, the common man tips his hat to the leader. America was the first place where the leader tips his hat to the common man.

UFC White House plans revealed, including weigh-ins at Lincoln Memorial: report

Seems hilarious to me. Not sure how this lends credibility but given opinions of Trump on the international stage it's obvious he doesn't care.

I think a person could be forgiven I'd they were reminded of Nero a bit.
The President of every day Americans is holding an event, large numbers of them relate to!

Maybe the left should hold a simultaneous event hosted by Gov. Walsh - Perhaps a nice drag show.

It would be a good way to judge who the middle class is drawn to.

Maybe I'll give a hypothetical that didn't happen.

I wouldn't go to either but I think playing dress up and dance aeound is healthier than watching people beat the snotty outta each other.

Violence in americna culture is soooo weird compared to nudity and sexuality.

Possibly it was the last place too.

If it was a drag queen show extravaganza they'd be cheering.

Instead it's going to be privileged white males displaying toxic masculinity.

Winning the Presidency means he gets to do things his way.
This is all fine.
We’re going to bring back the circuses (since the bread’s been snatched off of the table!)
