  • 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.

The stance Christianity as a whole takes on abortion is unclear morally - for all moral existence must command a future sight, a sight that allows the abortion of a rape child…The systematic wrecking of a mother’s self-worth, self-esteem, advancing a consciousness that will always be a rape child isn't ethically problematic? The march of the moral dilemma continues ever forward however, for the adult the rape child might become holds within itself the answer we desperately desire in our attempts to live with ourselves (Our ethics). Precognition would answer this question of “ethics” – but the sardonic, God-is-laughing-at-you impossibility of predetermining which consciousness deserves our protection can never be seen in black and white, absolute right and wrong. (Mother or rape child?). The precognitive and self-aware human imagines itself to be a higher authority, the species for which all joy must be celebrated, sought after, and protected. The answer lies within each human’s predetermined opinion – Always grant the mother peace, Always protect the future life of a child. The simplification of the ethical choice is our downfall; as it is the result of our inherent self-view – the earth evolves around each and every one of us, we cannot help it. We must project and declare what we have concluded in our own ethical battle, to do otherwise would be ethically self-destructive. To ACT is our own moral imperative, even while the true, issues debate rages on.
