  • 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.

Then why did you not mention this earlier when other posters brought up the UN at least 10 times already ? Or are you once again fixating on me.
I don't fixate on you steve. We've been responding to the racist/xenophobic rhetoric of the US government.

And you just inserted yourself with a long post, responding to no one that introduces a whole litany of irrelevant topics. Someone had to tell you to knock it off.

Like I said I was responding to the OP and in particular the video from Rubio and post 2. This was pointing out the ideological overreach of the UN on immigration and imposing this on the west.

I then pointed out the ideological differences between the US and western principles and alliances that are being undermined by the UN's ideas on immigration. Which has led to much unrerst and divisions on culture. We have see this unrest especially in England and Europe and beginning to rise in the US.

Steve, I didn't even know there was a video in this thread. (The latest iteration of this board turns all videos into black rectangles that I can't click. I can open with extra effort those videos when I know they are there, and oh boy, that video was, well very bigoted. Exactly the kind of thing I have been commenting about on this thread when it comes from the US government spokespeople.)

I'm not interested in your anti-immigrant rhetoric. I get enough of that from my government.

So now you understand the context and that I was not bringing up something irrelevant. I would have thought you first know what the OP had linked. That is what I was replying to and especially the 2nd post which questioned the UN's credibility and motives in all this. .

Like I said I was pointing out the ideological difference between the UN and the west. The threat to western ideals from the UN pushing their ideology.

We have to first understand the ideological basis for the position of each side. What is behind their policies. Obviously you disagree when you claim the video is being racist. While others don't.

This difference in ideological and moral positions is what needs to be established as to whether it is racist or immoral. You are claiming it is but thats your ideological belief. Just as there is nationally between the left and right politically and secular and Christians.

The UN is just as supceptible to ideological overreach as any political State or religion.
I'm not interested in your anti-immigrant rhetoric. I get enough of that from my government.
Its not anti immigration but simply proper and regulated immigration as the west has had for decades. Taking the host nations position and concerns first rather than imposing a globalist ideology on all nations.

This is the reality. How we regulate and apply immigration will have consequences. We are already seeing the division and chaos cause by unreal immigration ideas and policies.

Sure are what, racist ? What did the video say that was racist ?.
The original post just links in the video without any discussion. I see no reason to subject myself to any of that rhetoric again.
