• 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.

Should there be a wide ranging ban of facial recognition technology?

Yes, and their "social credit" system is creepy, at best.

Creepy? The ultimate in eliminating free expression. Kinda like the medieval church. If she floats she is a piece of wood.. I mean a witch.

Do you suppose they were inspired by the Inquisition?

One could ask... who inspired the Inquisition? Using fear has always been a tool of the powerful. Of course the powerful among man are those with the biggest sticks while in the Kingdom it is just the opposite.

I've reached the conclusion that few, if any, people now even care about the Kingdom. People only care that they get their way in all things political and let the suffering fall where it may.

But that is just me.

That kinda started a long time ago. Even the early church took that path and it stuck.
