• 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.

No taxation without representation!

Get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US. This is overstepping on a massive scale. If it wasn't for the United States, the UN wouldn't even exist.


Yeah, I'll bet they would. This is nothing more than a shakedown racket---picking the pocket of somebody you disagree with by making up some accusation against them, and then demanding reparations.

AFAIC, they can shut down the UN, turn the headquarters building into apartments for homeless veterans, and re-locate the whole organization to somewhere a little more "international"----Kerguelen, perhaps; or maybe the Crozet Islands.

This is just the start, here is a more in depth program to push global taxation. An International Financial Transactions Tax for International Public Goods

There is lots of abuse in taxation without representation. The President unilaterally selecting tariffs for instance.

Also, the Federal Reserve and their actions that create inflation is the most egregious of all. "The US dollar has lost over 96% of its value since 1913, when the Federal Reserve took over the dollar." https://charts.bitbo.io/dollar-devaluation/
