  • 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’m glad I found my way back to the Church. I learned much along the way. But if you believe as I do, you know I’ve been fortunate and touched by God’s grace,' Vance said.

Vice President JD Vance announced his book, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith, will be released June 16.

“I’ve been writing this book for a long time, and I’m honored to finally be able to share the full story with you all,” Vance wrote in a post to X. “‘Communion’ is about my personal journey and how I found my way back to faith.”

The book will be published by HarperCollins Publishers, which also published Vance’s 2016 bestselling book Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis. Since its release, Hillbilly Elegy has sold over 5 million copies worldwide.

“The story of how I regained my faith, of course, only happened because I had lost it to begin with,” Vance wrote in a HarperCollins press release. “The interesting question that hangs over this book, and over my mind, is why I ever strayed from the path. Why the Christian faith of my youth failed to properly take root.”

Both Trump & Vance feign religiosity. They fashion what they think religion is saying. Little is bible-based but then the bible is not a perfect antidote to the world's problems. For all his background, Vance had an opp to call Trump out when he had these cemetery decorations dismantled from an American cemetery in the Netherlands. Apparently anything of color or suggestive of ethnicity makes Trump weak in the knees. I think a cemetery is hallowed ground & what we recognize about the hallowed ground is that many peoples gave their lives. They need to have faces & be remembered as persons. Sadly Vance, like the other sycophants, could not put together his own brain & military background to simply say to Mr. Trump: "Let it go Don, let it go."
