• 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.

Common Core promoting Islam!!!!

That was never the charge.



An old tactic. By equating all religions you diminish the value of certain religions in the very places they are most practiced. It also foments sympathy, so that when someone attempts to address flaws in and perversions of that religion others respond with hostility, slander, and insult. As has happened here.



Which you have refused to even attempt to refute, other than to sling mud.

The only one slinging anything is yourself.

Are you proud of yourself and your service. Slinging useless hatred against other people. I wouldn't be proud of such rhetoric.

And yes, the First Amendment does guarantee freedom from religion. Namely freedom from the government imposing a singular religious belief among the populace.

It's a simple concept to grasp.

Yet, neither you nor the author of the OP has offered any evidence as to Common Core promoting Islam.

Let's you and I get together on this. How long before we report this thread as nothing more than bigoted hatred?

Anything you would like to add?

I would like to see him add evidence to his assertion that World History is a subject covered under Common Core -- that should be a hoot.

This. Ten thousand times this. Every rant gets further and further away from reality.

Why did atheism and Satanism even come up in this discussion? Are the atheists and Satanists conspiring with the Muslims? Why not add the Jews and the Hindus to the list?

Blithering hatred is something like an avalanche -- once it starts, it spreads until it covers everything it wants to.
