  • 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'm having a really rough day.
I'm still struggling to get my college project done, and I'm really struggling with my prayer and meditation. This morning I went to confession, and, earlier this evening, I remembered what Our Lord said about forgiving our enemies, if we want Him to forgive us, and so I prayed for the modernists, and that's where things went really wrong. I tried praying for the modernists, and I just got angry at them and all the evil they've done the lies they've said, and how they're trying to keep poor sinners enslaved in their sins. Please pray for me that I can overcome this anger, I don't want to sink to their level, I don't want to have the same hatred and disgust they have.

By the way, you know that thing I planned on posting and discussing this Saturday, I don't think it'll be done by then.
