• 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.

Does something like this speak to a person's character?

I love children. Babies especially. I love babies...ant kind. I am a very relaxed personality dn when I come across crying babies I love helping them calm while the frazzled parent gets a break.
So yes I have a bias.

But I look at these two men and how they handle a crying baby and to me, it does speak to their character and values.

What about you?

Trump isn't always against children. However, his first thought was to call the little one a 'construction worker'. Then he says the baby is an 'early trump fan'. It is always about him.

Politicians have been putting their dirty hands on babies forever, and I just can't properly judge their character based on handling a baby. However, in trump's case here, he does reveal his self-absorbed character.

Has anyone here ever seen the movie The Dead Zone with Christopher Walken? There is a scene at the end of a politician favored to win the Presidency used a baby as a shield against a would be assassin, That video of the ex-President looked eerily of that scene imho.

ok. whew. That's a bit better.
Yeah, but I still get the distinct feeling that the man has never changed a nappy in his life.

There was a thread asking for a day to put politics to the side....which I can absolutely get behind. Appears though some folks can't.
