Last week, we had a thread on here about the partisan divide, and how disagreements aren't at all friendly, but rather we treat people with different views as though they are bad people. Well, this got me paying attention and I've been noticing just how frequently "liberals" as a general group...

I intend this question mostly for the conservatives, because they are most concerned with budget balancing and getting rid of deficits. 1) Do you support any tax increases? 2) Do you support cutting military spending? 3) Do you support cutting social security (lowering payments, means...

Guard shot at Family Research Council - Mackenzie Weinger and Katie Glueck - POLITICO.com One source says he made statements about their policies as he entered. Terrible, and I want to upfront condemn terrorism and violence.

About 1 out of every 4 Americans born after 1980 call themselves atheist, agnostic, or "nothing in particular." This is up significantly from previous generations. Of those who are religious, the strength of their religion isn't any less than religious people of previous generations. Just...

I am no longer a Catholic. I grew up a Catholic, but have been slowly trending away for many years. I almost left a few years ago, but convinced myself not to, and to keep trying. But as I tried, I only realized that I believed less and less, and although I enjoyed the Catholic community, I...

After 100 posts, the 50th post gets 50 blessings. Whoever posts number 100, please pm me to tell me who won, because the order could get screwed up before I have a chance to check the thread. To make this even weirder, I posted this once, it went though, and the thread didn't exist.

Someone please close this thread. It is a phantom-double.

I'm watching a special on the local news about the drug Salvia, which is currently unregulated and totally legal. The newscasters and people they are interviewing are appalled that people are getting high and it is legal. They go on and on about how shocking and dangerous it is that this drug...

I'm in an exploratory mode right now, debating whether or not to enter the election. There are only two democrats currently registered to run and I think we need more balance. I won't yet go into my credentials or my positions, but I ask a question of you: Would the citizens of CF Politics...

I'm interested in the trends of political affiliation/profession. For instance, I'm an engineer and a liberal, while most engineers seem somewhere between apathetic and conservative. Its not a large sample size or very representative, but why don't see see if any trends pop up among this...

Hey guys. My Grandfather was diagnosed this week with pancreatic cancer. He's having a minor surgery tomorrow to put in a stint but still, he's expected to live less than a year. He and all our family need all the prayers we can get.

Several members are involved in the drafting of rules for the creation of a Liberal Politics sub-forum. The rules wiki is located here. All interested liberals, please join in the discussion and, if these rules as written seem ok, we will have the forum reopened and vote on their implementation.

Well guys it took me almost 3 years to get here, but I'm up to 5000 posts!!!! :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

BEAUTIFUL wedding and I got to be in it as a groomsman. It is so great to see two good friends so happy together. No real point to the thread, just happy! :clap: :clap: :clap:

I am Catholic and I am liberal on issues of faith as well as politics. I usually don't refer to myself as a "Liberal Catholic" but just as a Catholic who is liberal. With that said, I hope that this place follows that line of reasoning. I understand why it was made and definitely can see...

This question assumes that you believe in hell. God, being all powerful, has the ability to do anything. When He created heaven and hell and decided who would go where, He could have used some other arrangement of what happens when people leave the physical world. He could have made heaven or...

Just because a band is secular doesn't mean members of the band aren't Christians, or that they can't write songs with Christian themes. I thought it would be fun to start a thread with songs and lyrics from secular bands that have Christian themes or otherwise positive themes. Thrice - Music...
