• 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.

Maybe one of you can help this person out??

You went to a lot of trouble on her behalf, Christie. That was really nice of you. :)

I think I can see two reasons why she wouldn't want the help of anyone here, though.
The first reason is that she is asking a rhetorical question, so she isn't after an answer; from what I've read so far, she sounds like she feels pretty sure she already knows the answer to her question.
The second reason is that she seems to have already decided that most Jews don't know the right answer to her question.
Hey, you never know, though; maybe somebody here will give her a hand anyhow. :cool:

Maybe...I am so discouraged by some of the displays of hate that I am seeing lately on these boards. Anti-Catholic, Anti-Semetic, ANTI anything you can think of :cry:

I know, Christie! I've noticed more of that too lately, and what I really hate is that, for me, it's catching, like a really nasty case of the flu.
What I know for sure is that proving myself to be in the right isn't worth the hurt feelings I cause. So I "win" by making someone else lose, and then all I have to show for it is my little egotistical "victory" when I could have made a friend instead!
Christy, you know I lurk a lot, and I see that you're always trying to do something nice for someone, just like starting this thread for What's-Her-Name (Caisie?).
It encouraged me that you went to the trouble you did, just in case she needed help. Whether she took you up on it or not, it made me feel happy. Maybe that's kind of weird, but it still counts, right? You set out to make somebody happy and you made somebody happy. Mission accomplished! :)

Great quote, Justin! I keep trying to get Pascal from the library, but so far I've had no luck.
