  • 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.

A man arrested outside a church before it was set to hold a “Red Mass” worship service, traditionally attended by U.S. Supreme Court justices, was found to have 200 explosive devices in his possession.

Louis Geri, a 41-year-old resident of New Jersey, was arrested Sunday outside of the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle hours before the service was scheduled to begin.

According to a D.C. Metropolitan Police Department press release, Geri, who had been previously barred from the cathedral grounds, decided to set up a tent near the church building.

While Geri was arrested without incident after refusing to leave the property, authorities discovered “multiple suspicious items, including vials of liquid and possible fireworks, inside of the suspect’s tent.”
