  • 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.

What the Times considers assaults could be different than ICE
How many legs does a dog have if you call its tail a leg?

4, calling it a leg doesn't make it one.

Right, an act of speech or writing is not an assault.

Spitting on someone is
It certainly could be.

Bovino testified that merely touching an agent “could be assault depending on the situation. Spitting on someone could be assault.”

Whats the go with a reverend doxing ICE agents because she believes this is spreading Christs love. What a weird way to do that. This is bad fruit.

I think it shows how far political ideology has entered the church.

Putting fear into little children is wrong and should not be brushed off as not being an assault. As I said, all the Times had to do was contact ICE if they really wanted the truth about the numbers. What the Times considers assaults could be different than ICE, they could make it clear to the readers they only consider assaults as those where a judge or jury has convicted the perpetrator. Pretty easy to do. Perhaps assaults are still over 1000% when doxxing is not included.
Oh good. Guess we can charge these officers based on all the little children who they have put fear into.

Was the Gestapo doing the Lord's work? That would be perverse. But they could be justified just as easily as ICE is being.
The Gestapo was not rescuing children and arresting violent criminals. You have the sides in this completely reversed. What coalition is attacking Jews? What coalition is defending gang members and terrorists? Who is it that is trying to rescue the children and other victims of human trafficking? Who are the people working through their elected representatives and who are the people taking the law into their own hands?

Workers at Home Depot or gardeners are not violet criminals. US citizens at the wrong place at the wrong time going about their business are not violent criminals. The Klan and White Supremacist groups are known for attacking Jews themselves, they feel emboldened today. Probably got ICE jobs. Don't confuse Jews themselves with the Israel government. There is only one group who is protecting the deeds of pedophiles. We both know who they are and were they reside on weekdays, and what golf course they can be found on weekends.

I don't know. It sounds like groups that only exist in your fevered imagination.

Mahad Abdulkadir Yusuf indeed was just arrested in Minneapolis. We do know the group that was protecting him.
*We* don't. Never heard of this chump.

Such a tragic situation created by letting in ten to twenty million people, so many unvetted, in one presidential term. So many resources wasted because ambitious people decided to break the laws of our country. Those resources could have been used to bring in more who love America in legally.
I thought this was blasphemy the first time I read it, and still do.

Yes they WERE doing both those things if you consider their perspective:
The Gestapo were rescuing children from the danger of the Jew. They were keeping them safe from the influence of gays. And the loose morality and depravity of the coloured man.
And they certainly WERE arresting violent criminals.

You have the sides in this completely reversed. What coalition is attacking Jews?
I don't know if you know this but it's actually the behaviour that is awful; not the fact that they use the behaviour against only a CERTAIN target.

What coalition is defending gang members and terrorists?
Which coalition is protecting legal and nonviolent immigrants who are being harrassed by ICE?

Who is it that is trying to rescue the children and other victims of human trafficking?
Who isn't trying to keep children safe? Stop making absurdist claims.
Americans traffic women too.

It lays it out clear to me that Jim Jordan is unable to identify the Lord's work. That is a ghastly lack of discernment on some very foundational ideas.

Like other members of the Administration he considers the culture war as the Lord's work.

““This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.”
‭‭John‬ ‭15‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

““Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.’ Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?’ Then He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.””
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25‬:‭41‬-‭46‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

I think this pretty much speaks for itself.
