  • 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.

Progressive government is the antithesis of a biblically based republic.

I am. Where do you think I've been discussing pseudoscience with the likes of Mr. Steve?

On a Christian forum which proves my point

I don't try to look in to the minds of killers who commit mass shootings.

Then why even ask if people are being killed for believing in God or not if this answer was going to be your endgame all along? Total red herring and moot point.

A large number of them seem driven by narcessism

NarcIssism. Learn to spell. 2 can play at that game ^_^

and doing one up on the prior mass killers. Some times there targets are from personal connections of some kind (their old school, etc.) others not. When some loser shoots up a mosque or synagogue is it because the people inside believe in God, or because the shooter hates Muslims or Jews. Who can tell?

Again, you asked a question you weren't willing to hear the answer to and when I gave the answer you walked it back to suit your narrative because there is no win or lose condition in this. If people were being killed for believing in God you say who knows what the actual motivation is and if people aren't being killed for believing in God you say welp looks like I'm right.

Also, you're being pseudoscientific and hypocritical again by believing the universe revolves around America and ignoring the half billion Christians being explicitly persecuted for being Christian such as the Kasanga massacre that happened this year in the Congo.

What? There are are *way* more than 1/2 Billion Chritian outside the US.
ChriStian. See how annoying that is? I'll stop if you stop. I know there's more than a half billion Christians. The half billion are just the ones living under governments that persecute them. Which you refuse to engage with because your pride doesn't allow you to concede a single point of any argument, regardless of topic
Something like 90% of Christians are not Americans. "Ignoring" non-Americans doesn't have anything to do with science.

You acted like they didn't exist earlier by ignoring them and they do exist according to science

I thought you'd care about black people but it's just an assumption

It's just a site with some pseudo science going on it. I don't care about the other ideology.

End game? I dont 'have an "endgame".

The examples given are from mass killers/shooters whose motivations are quite muddled.

you don't seem to know what pseudoscience is (and the Unvierse isn't rotating).
and ignoring the half billion Christians being explicitly persecuted for being Christian such as the Kasanga massacre that happened this year in the Congo.
Never heard of that one. The problem might be that I only realized this was "general poltics" and I usually participate in the "US politics" section. Not sure how I ended up in this thread. The earlier posts were filled with US politics references (and Mr. Steve frequently confuses himself with an American when discussing politics.)
ChriStian.
My key board needs replcing (see it dropped the "a")

I was discussing American politics where that is a distraction.

That's not what science is.

Why would that be a special province of "progressives" ? (and as a noob, you don't know my politics anyway.)

As a democrat you should know more than anyone that it is possible to aggress against a person without necessarily thinking about that person. In fact the lack of caring itself can be seen as an act of aggression. Complaining about that kind of thing is the democrats' bread and butter
I've only been a Democrat for a few months (and kind of forgot I'd even marked that). I haven't even been to a meeting yet, so I haven't adopted their habits yet. (or frankly care to)

Pseudo science that you yourself push by acting as if America is the only country that exists

End game? I dont 'have an "endgame".

You asked "Who are these men killed for their belief in your god". Shouldn't your endgame be to find out who the men are? But obviously it isn't, because once I gave you examples of the men killed, you claimed it was impossible to know whether someone can be killed for belief in God or not, meaning there was no lose condition for you to begin with. You are a bad faith actor and really should be banned for wasting everyone's time here

The examples given are from mass killers/shooters whose motivations are quite muddled.

As shown by my previous reply there'd be no amount of motivation or evidence satisfactory to you anyway because you aren't actually open to changing your mind on anything

you don't seem to know what pseudoscience is (and the Unvierse isn't rotating).

I know it doesn't but you act as if it does because you ignore every other country besides America

Never heard of that one. The problem might be that I only realized this was "general poltics" and I usually participate in the "US politics" section. Not sure how I ended up in this thread. The earlier posts were filled with US politics references (and Mr. Steve frequently confuses himself with an American when discussing politics.)

You should probably leave the guy alone

My key board needs replcing (see it dropped the "a")

I was discussing American politics where that is a distraction.
Seem to have no problem using 'a' now.
That's not what science is.

I claimed science says black people exist. Are you disagreeing?

Why would that be a special province of "progressives" ? (and as a noob, you don't know my politics anyway.)
Progressives bend over backwards to serve minorities that are actually majorities globally

The existence of other countries or not is not a matter of science or pseudoscience. You should stop using that those terms as you aren't using them correctly.
You asked "Who are these men killed for their belief in your god". Shouldn't your endgame be to find out who the men are? But obviously it isn't, because once I gave you examples of the men killed, you claimed it was impossible to know whether someone can be killed for belief in God or not, meaning there was no lose condition for you to begin with. You are a bad faith actor and really should be banned for wasting everyone's time here
And Steve answered, and the answer was "Charlie Kirk". As I posted earlier, it is a dubious notion that he was "killed for believing in God".
As shown by my previous reply there'd be no amount of motivation or evidence satisfactory to you anyway because you aren't actually open to changing your mind on anything
You are rather quick to evaluate things (and people) you don't know. You've been on this board for a couple weeks. have a little humility.
I know it doesn't but you act as if it does because you ignore every other country besides America
I already explained this.
You should probably leave the guy alone
I've made that suggestion to him, but he keeps writing longer and longer replies.
Seem to have no problem using 'a' now.
I didn't say it had completely failed.
I claimed science says black people exist. Are you disagreeing?
That isn't a determination of science. Do you know what science actually is?
Progressives bend over backwards to serve minorities that are actually majorities globally
What makes you think I am a "progressive"? Did I say I was?
