• 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.

It's often impossible (or very difficult) to provide evidence for personal conversations with other people; but, I wasn't asking about Carlson's evidence for that; I was asking for your evidence that Carlson was lying; or was it just an assumption?
We had four quick tests we gave to a report from a human source to categorize reliability of the source (which is different from categorizing reliability of the information).

1. Did this source have first-hand knowledge of the information provided?
2. Has this source previously given us information verified correct by reliable sources?
3. Has this source previously given us information verified false by reliable sources?
4. What is the motivation for this source giving us this information?

So, how does Tucker Carlson stack up?

That's a different issue. It is relevant to the general discussion about Tucker's claim, but not to the specific point that I was making about the other poster's claim.

As far as my opinion goes: I would say that Carlson has made some mistakes, and has changed his views, over the years, on some issues; but, as far as I can tell, he does try to present what he believes to be the truth.
