  • 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.

I don’t know. Things just seem kinda’ simple to me. I see so many people can’t figure things out but it’s all kinda’ simple.

Let me show you.

In the 1900’s you had Catholic writer GK Chesterton taking on eugenics. Now, I don’t know if you know much about history but eugenics was all the rage. It came after pretty much everyone accepted evolution and all that survival of the fittest stuff. And then some people said, what if I decide I’m the fittest and I make sure the unfit don’t survive. It was just seen as taking control of evolution. It was, they said, the next evolution in evolution. And this seemed like a great idea to a lot of people, especially Germans.

But you had this Catholic writer GK Chesterton standing against it, warning everyone. Now, he’s a Catholic and he says the Church teaches that every life is sacred, fittest or not.

Now, it might’ve seemed confusing because you have all these people loving the idea, the Germans and the Americans especially. All the Ivy League institutions had eugenics clubs it was so popular. The media cheered it on. And then you got just this one guy warning everyone. So, I get being a little confused there but guess what happened. It turned out that the one guy talking up the Church was right.

Wanna’ know how they found out? So along came this other guy. His name was Hitler and he put eugenics into practice. And boy, did he. Dude went to town. And after that, everyone got kinda’ embarrassed about being all into it. It’s like being at the Lord of the Rings convention when you realize everyone’s wearing elf ears and then you wanna’ get the hell out.

So, sometimes, the masses are wrong. Let’s fast forward.
