  • 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.

In your opinion, which one is worse, Donald Trump's cursing or when President Obama used the N-word? I know that the N-word (hence quite offensive) is a bad word, but I wonder how a President should conduct his or maybe (in the even Hilary Clinton does win) herself. I think that whenever Donald Trump curses (using the dreaded F word), it is a turn off. Also, when a current President also use another offensive word (in my opinion), it is also a turn off and it seems rather un Presidential. If he wishes to win the Presidency, then Donald Trump needs to stop being so arrogant, thin skinned, and foul mouthed. Unfortunately, President Obama at times can also be rude, at least that is how he comes across. That is just my take on things.

Personally I don't find the odd word uttered offensive, I look more at the total of words spoken and, albeit from another country, I feel sorry for the electorate of the USA which has to chose between 2 fundamentally flawed characters for President. It seems the Hilary will be the least worst option, at least she appears mentally stable whereas Trump is just plain terrifying.

So you find politicians to be a turn-off. Join the club.

Yes, but that is not the point. I do think that a politician private or public should be held to a certain standard including the use of words.

I agree...and if I did not know better (having met and talked with Trump) I would certainly have a bad opinion of him.

But the better question would be: Which is better, 1) a loudmouth, success or, 2) a proven, lying and corrupt, failure?

Cursing is sin, of course this nation lacks God and so does her leaders. That is why these people get a following and get elected.
