  • 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.

Why didn`t I get the money instead?

When corona was spreading in society, they spent billions on trying to stop it, but everyone got infected anyways. Now ebola in africa, everyone will get infected anyways, why don`t I get the money instead for a mansion?
Everyone did not get infected with COVID anyway. I had the vaccinations, and did not get infected. I am sure there were many like me. I know many people who were vaccinated and did not get infected. I know one person who was vaccinated, and did get infected, but only very mildly. And how do you know that everyone (in Africa) will get infected with Ebola anyway (or "anyways" as they say in America)?

Finally, why should you get the money that would be saved by not vaccinating people?

Is this a serious post? It doesn’t make sense. Why any of it?

Ebola has a 50% kill rate. So 500 times more deadly than covid. Imagine a response that kills half the earth, making others sick for weeks. Spending 10 trillion to save hundreds of trillions make perfect sense. Besides, why bother to buy you a mansion anyway when there will be plenty of housing if ebola were to spread worldwide?

Its getting to be an infected old world. Decaying and falling apart, Human genome collecting more and more junk, Didn't Christ say when the end is coming run to the mountains. There is something about a mountain that makes you feel closer to God.

I think I'm going bush for a while. Milk me own cows and get nice fresh eggs from the chooks. Have a bit of bacon off me own pigs and a lamb chop. Lamb is so expensive now that it's become a luxury. Not to mention all the hormones in chickens that will mess with your hormones.
