• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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 don't believe in loyalties to any POTUS--the POTUS is supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, the Republic, and to the people of this nation. We aren't supposed to be loyal to the POTUS, the POTUS is supposed to be loyal to us.

Your answer is a non-answer. And yes, I do think it is cowardice. A true patriot will always stand by the Constitution, the Republic, and her citizens--and will never lift up any POTUS above or on the same footing. That is not patriotism, that is cowardice, that is sycophancy, and it is anti-American.

I was hoping you would actually rise up to the challenge of being a patriot. I suppose I will have to be disappointed.

May God save us. May God have mercy on us.
We've had 250 years. I hope we live to see more.
You could not be more wrong about me if you tried. Thank you again for your insults.

I haven't insulted you--I've merely provided an observation of your own words as you gave them.

Loyalty to a particular politician in the same category along with the country and its constitution. This is a mistake. A historical mistake.
I think I heard somewhere, one people, one nation, one leader.

I’m not surprised they’re selling this junk at Walmart.

At least we can no longer say it’s “made in China”.
Probably still produced there. Now with the added bonus of not having to employ some working shlub human to design it!

It’s amazing how much of this applies directly to our current reigning monarch.
It is amazing a lot of the grievances against the Kingdom are the same occurring now, here.

lol, it's "Hear, hear!" But glad you got it wrong.
I’ve always cottoned to the “hear here!” version, but I’m linguistically quirky.
