  • 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.

The NEA is pushing far left teaching upon children

To appease an agenda.
Nah, it's based on evidence. As all scientific theories are.

How sad.

Godspeed
You have every right to be sad that your opinions and facts aren't consistent.

The US discussion about this is wild, one would come to believe that it is the rule not the exception with hormonal (both puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones) and/or surgical interventions. Where I live it is mainly therapy and providing a safe environment (some would probably characterize it as affirming). Puberty blockers are not routinely prescribed.
That honestly sounds like a healthier alternative to me.

Scientists disagree.



As I have pointed out a bunch of times already, minors aren't getting that kind of surgery, so you can stop being worried about it.

Two National Guard soldiers shot in Washington DC

Yes. Do you disagree our own actions -actions by the president, in part caused this incident?
As I stated before, I’m not going to defend the president over all his actions. He has been wrong plenty of times before despite me voting for him.

But no. Trump did not cause this. No.

Saying gender is identity is an ideology not based on science.
Scientists disagree.


It’s based on a theory if anything. If adults feel that way, good for them, I don’t care.

And as I said, just leave minors alone. They aren’t mature enough.

Adults can make their own decisions.

Is that not fair?

The Mamdani Model: More Socialist Mayors to ComeBeware! The DSA will attempt to repeat Mamdani’s success in other Democrat strongholds.

If nobody can see and feel the things about Islam that I do, then all I can say is that maybe I have inherited some epigenetic effects from an ancestor who saw Islam *exactly* the same way I do, and so my DNA is pushing me into protection-mode, which was prepared for me, should the exact same neuronal firing sequence take place again.

I'm sure my ancestors fought beside the Habsburgs, during the battles of Kobolkut, as well as the Battle of Vienna, and I'm sure of it, because it's my ancestral homeland, and I exist - so I must come from the survivors of that.
Pray like your life depended on it. Pray for their conversion and salvation.

Blessings

I dunno - I'd characterize some of the claims made about Islam in this thread as "irrational fear".

Opinions can be wrong sometimes, ya know. Gender isn't biology, it's identity.


As has been demonstrated, that isn't happening.

Granted, there have been a small handful of adolescents who have experience adverse outcomes, though most report favorable ones. But that only indicates that more information is needed, not less.

How Can People Get Confused with Christianity and Nazism?

I've been thinking about the stark contrast between Christianity and Nazism, yet I've noticed that some people seem to conflate the two. One promotes love, forgiveness, and humility, while the other is rooted in hatred, domination, and prejudice.

Context: One prays, the other preys.

How is it possible for individuals to draw parallels between these two ideologies? Could it be due to historical misinterpretations, propaganda, or a misunderstanding of faith itself? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this confusing juxtaposition.

  • What examples can you share that highlight these misconceptions?
  • How can we better educate others on the true message of Christianity in light of such conflation?
  • What role do you think social media plays in perpetuating these misunderstandings?
Looking forward to a thoughtful discussion!

Wrong because I don’t accept an ideology? That’s just an opinion and nothing more.

This isn’t about dogma. It’s about protecting minors from being harmed by an extreme ideology and things they don’t understand.

B flat B♭

-
I would suggest to really be selective in your choice of videos. Because the person who is doing these videos is a nut case and definitely will not put a positive case out to the public for flat earth beliefs.

Thank you - I have deleted the post & will be more selective in future :thumbsup:

What do you mean with endorsing an ideology? So, schools have to at least discuss LGBTQ people in the political and historical sense, and schools have an obligation to make sure they are not discriminated against because of their LGBTQ status.

If LGBTQ persons are accepted by society in general, it a good thing that students are exposed to this view regardless of the parents view. Kids are not obligated to share their parents view on all topics.
I don’t know. It’s still controversial and people may be opposed to it. Treat people right and keep social issues from an academic, neutral perspective. Don’t bully or belittle anyone.

Just my opinion to keep everyone happy.

DC had crime trending down well before any national guardsmen had ever been sent in.
DC was fudging the crime figures.
The president wanted theater and now two young soldiers are dead. This is squarely on his shoulders.
You are a sick individual.

Yes, we need peace here. And we aren't going to get it allowing people like this in. God won't save us from the consequences of our own foolish actions.
Foolish actions like pointless deployments of our National Guard, putting them in harms way.

Praying for peace throughout our land! Amen!
