• 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.

No, they are both just regular human beings.

Of course. "From" do not mean, "of". Regular human beings being used by forces. Part of certain forces. Doing things of certain forces unseen. It's happening not only in politics, in all spheres of life. Even to simple unknown small people. Especially leaders

No, there are no forces using Hillary or Trump. This is just normal everyday life. :)

Ah ok. I just saw that you are agnostic. Sorry, I didn't understand at first. Well. Yes. People doing their thing. But then, we can talk about special interest groups and their infulence, right? Or at least, attempts at influencing? Or you'll say all conspiracy theory?

Can anyone tell me of any condition that endangers the mother's life that a late term abortion would be needed rather than a C-section that would save the child's life as well? I just cannot think of any and she didn't give an example.

This is a pretty long interview with a woman who had to make the choice to terminate her pregnancy at 32 weeks. I'm not sure its an example you're looking for as the baby was going to suffocate to death if she gave birth while also endangering her own life. Be warned though, it is a very heart breaking interview.

Oh no. I would agree with special interest groups.

No. She did not get the abortion because her health was in danger.

Well, the Republicans voted for him as their candidate. He hasn't changed his tone since that. Do you think that a shill for hillary is the thing republicans desired?
It is what they deserved

Stop the flaming now.
The flaming rule is this:

Flaming and Goading
Please treat all members with respect and courtesy through civil dialogue.
Do not personally attack other members or groups of members on CF. Address only the content of the post and not the poster.
Do not maliciously ridicule other people or groups of people (e.g., members and non-members, public and non-public figures, political figures and political groups). Constructive criticism is allowed, but destructive and cruel criticism is not allowed.
NO Goading. This includes images, cartoons, or smileys clearly meant to goad. Quoting and then editing another members post to change the original meaning, commonly referred to as "fixed it for you" (FIFY), is considered goading.
Stating or implying that another Christian member, or group of members, are not Christian is not allowed.
If you are flamed, do not respond in-kind. Alert staff to the situation by utilizing the report button.

Do not flame Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. Do not flame Democrats or Republicans or Independents. Do not imply one candidate is from Satan. Don't describe either candidate in insulting ways.

Check the flaming rule.

It is okay to debate for an against the candidates. It is okay to criticize them, and their campaigns. But some comments cross the line into flaming.

It is not okay to insult other members either.

My friend(who has voted Clinton by postal ballot from Europe) and I watched the debate together. We both thought that Trump won this debate. We were both curious as to whether he could pull off what he claims if he wins. But we also both agreed that it was probably too much of a risk to give him a go. For all her faults Clinton is the safe pair of hands in this election even with her disturbing commitments to abortion & gay marriage.

Oh dear lord, let me live to see that.
I wouldn't put it past him but if Trump leads an armed revolution like he has led the campaign the government has nothing to worry about.
