  • 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.

Biden proclaimed the first instance of "Transgender Visibility Day" to occur onEaster Day.

I'd contest the "majority" part, too. But it's always heartening to imagine that your fringe movement is the "voice" of a made up majority.

Though other people aren't bombarded by the straight agenda every other day.
Straight couples shown on TV and movies
Overly sexualized influencers showing as much as they can online
Magazine made fore the straight white male.
Straight people preaching every day on TV on dozens of channels about their straightness.

None of that happens all year long does it?

That would certainly be the ones who side with secularism and worldliness.
Wouldn’t it have made more sense to hold transgender visibility day on April 1st instead of March 31st? To me that would be more fitting.

Why dont Christians change the name "Easter" to something else, as its pagan origins are just so bluntly obvious?

Ive heard many times from Christians that pagan spirituality is not simply incorrect, but is actually from the devil. So why stick with the pagan origin name?

Nah, that'll be Donalds third term.
Right, I had forgotten the talking point about the 22nd amendment not being a thing and the president being entitled to another term because he encountered pushback during his first term.

He isn't a believer or defender of the faith. Nor is he required to honor Christian customs. That's like asking a heathen to come to church. Stop expecting public officials to validate your beliefs. They're not part of the flock and it's evident.

Yeah! The sun, moon, light, air, day, night, water, sleep, and even gravity impose their natures on us, too! How dare they!
Well, you know this is natural, normal, and the reality we exist in. It is gonna happen. Let's hope it does not stop.

No I was referring to transgender visibility day, not Easter.
Ah so you want Easter & Transgender Visibility Day to occur on the same day again in 2029?

It's "Confederate History Month" now. Let us remember Confederate history by remembering how much losing they did in Confederate Surrender Month.
Also known as Sam Houston told y’all so month.

I was under the impression this was the first year it became a nationally recognized occasion.

Yes, there was a bunch of the LGBTQ enthusiasts who declared the day back in 2009, but it wasn't a national day until this year.

I don't think the national recognition should have occurred on a Holy day. Pick another year to announce would have been the most appropriate.
