  • 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.

Nuclear War- soon?

eh? :scratch: i didnt say that i thought you plaigarised it!

i was just saying that the first time i heard of "duck and cover" was from south park. They were making fun of the idea. The smacking head smiley was suggesting how daft duck and cover was!

didnt mean to offend :sorry:

Whoops. My bad. :sorry: I thought the smacking head thing was talking about how they had the same joke on there and I'd quoted it as my own. My mistake and apologies.

They're the only thing that can work against Iran's fortified bunkers deep underground.

And the good thing is, in being designed to detonate underground, the nuclear bunker bustlers should limit any nuclear fallout to the immediate area. But we'll never know if research funds continue to get cut off by wishy-washy doves in in congress.

Interpreter, I am 80% sure that we have been through this before.

Jsn112, you should really think before you say things like you've been saying. Didn't you ever think that if the US nuked Mecca, that the US would get nuked as well, and everything would keep escalating and well..the world would pretty much end? Because that would most likely be what would happen.

Pakistan could fire off a few shots. North Korea might join in the fun. Russia and China might get spooked and fire theirs as well. Pakistan firing missiles would spook India.

I forgot his name at the moment, but trust me, he is popular with many of us Chrisitians.
another sign of just how pagan American Christians are becoming

hmmmm, I'm also a christian, in my religon God decides who goes to hell.

Yep, I know the criteria. I think planning to Anihilate hundreds of thousands who don't know Jesus would warrant at least a short visit there.

Asterisks mine. I'm pretty easy going otherwise when it comes to swearing, but could you kindly watch what you say? God's last name is not "damn".

I guarantee that we'll all die whether we nuke Mecca or not. Nobody here gets out alive.

But out of curiousity, from what do you deduce that if the US nukes Mecca that we'll all die (presumably sooner than we would have had Mecca gone un-nuked)?

That comment makes one no better then the terrorists.
Somehow or the other I can't put making a possibly offensive comment in the same category as blowing up office buildings and killing thousands of people. If making a snide comment is as bad as mass murder, then mass murder is no worse than making a snide comment, right? I don't think so.

Bad grammar. (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

Seriously, though, while we were worrying about terrorists maybe blowing up something with a suitcase nuke, New Orleans was wrecked by a storm. Kinda like the guy in northern California who was so worried about earthquakes that he built his out out of massive timbers all through-bolted and strapped together to withstand any earthquake that was likely to happen. You guessed it - he had an electrical problem of some sort and it burned down.

Mecca would make a good hostage city, though. Just make it known to all the Islamists that any other outrage on a par with 9-11 would result in Mecca becoming a glass-lined bowl and it might give them pause, don't you think. We just leave it in their hands. Wanna keep your kiblah? No problem, just behave yourselves and all will be well.

Could be.

Nope. There'd be a lot of people killed and hurt, but must people would not be. They'd put everything back to rights over time.

Well said. We just put the idea of nuking Mecca out there and let it be known that we keep all military options open.

Personally i think we should start taking out all of the many Islamic clerics who support the terrorists, and another option is to take out the many mosques used to spread terror, whether in Mecca or whereever.
