  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Rising Hypocrisy: Critical Level

So after reviewing few posts made earlier on race, wealth, and power, theres certainly a double standard rooted deeply in the foundation of our beliefs.

Large number of Americans still holds up the so called "Traditional Beliefs" that include blacks as inferior and whites to rightly be better off economically than the minorities. (Ascribed Status as Whites)
Why is this so? - Because being American is more than a piece of document in the eyes of certain groups.

Long ago, there were people who left their lives in search for political and religious freedom. They came to America and with good morals and principals they created what is now considered as the most powerful Nation on earth. However, problems started to occur when the black slaves refused to behave and the Indians trying to take back their land! These minorities misunderstood that freedom is strictly for white men only. In retaliation, America has bombed black churches and assasinated whoever that claimed to be their leaders.

Henry Ford, an American folk hero, has contributed to us greatly economically. He also made a newspaper company solely dedicated to his hatred for the Jews. Not many people know about this fact, I thought I should share.

Just remember not all Christians subscribe to such. We should pray that all believers should come to realize THE LORD GOD MADE US ALL - equally...and brotherly (and sisterly) love should abound. God's grace makes us free. :preach:

I would refine this last statement slightly.

"America" didn't bomb black churches, and assasinnate whoever claimed to lead black freedom movements; groups within the population of America unlawfully bombed back churches and assasinated their leaders.

Other groups of American people were trying to help them, and others were trying to ignore both sides.

I bet a certain professional tennis player and his lawyers would be interested to know that someone claiming to be him is spamming internet message boards with pure bile and bigotry.

And by "interested," I mean, "angry and ready to sue for defamation of character."

I hear you.

I know and understand these issues very well. If justice were done, these poeple who do these unjust acts would be sent to jail as long as it could hold them.

That's an interesting fact on Henry Ford. Kind of makes you want to boycott Ford cars. I personally consider regular Fords junk anyway, though.

If you are a true Christian, discrimination should not be tolerated as Jesus commanded us to love all our neighbors.

Hmmm...so when do we get to the part of the thread that asks a question?

So after reviewing few posts made earlier on race, wealth, and power, theres certainly a double standard rooted deeply in the foundation of our beliefs.

I've reviewed all your other threads and I'm failing to see the double standard proof in the replies that were given. Your making a statement that there is a double standard somewhere amongst the a large number of Americans that you label 'Traditional Beliefs'. What is this 'Traditional Belief'.?

Basically your saying this... Racism exists. Bigotry exists and that Henry Ford promoted the hatred of Jews.

I know it. You know it. Just about everybody knows it.

When do we meaningfully address this issue in any way in this thread?

Apparently, constitutional segregation, KKK leader Duke in congress, slavery etc etc etc, isn't much of a profound evidence to you.

Everybody knows it. The inequality exist yea so what - is your attitude.
This topic isn't much of a problem because it is not your struggle sir, but it is a serious issue people face in daily activities because 1) A LOT of white population are racist. 2) Other white people such as yourself, dont care.
