  • 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.

"Trump Accounts"

Senator Cruz and Senator Booker both agree these savings accounts are a good idea. This is one of the very few times that I agree with Senator Booker.

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

Let me guess: democrats were republicans when they owned slaves and the party switched as soon as democrats started doing good stuff too. Lol.
The Democrats and Republicans started as one single party and I’m pretty sure most all of them were slave owners at that time.

Zions New Children

The desecration of the new Temple, 2 Thess 2:4, will happen 1260 days before Jesus Returns.
The Temple will be built by the Christan peoples, coming from far distant places. Zechariah 6:15 They will occupy all of the Holy Land, which will have been cleared and cleansed by the soon to happen; Lords Day of fiery wrath. Revelation 6:11-17, 2 Peter 3:7, +

This scenario is what the Bible Prophets have told us will happen.
To deny and reject it, is tantamount to; deny and reject the whole Bible.

People who put up disgusting posters and who accuse others, are showing their true colours.
I should report you, but those who do see your nasty pictures and 'foaming at the mouth rants, can easily make up their own minds.
I see @Strong in Him - has aligned with you. 2 Peter 2:1-22 has a lot to say about those who the way of truth be evil spoken of...... 2 Peter 2:2 KJV
Um, nope.

You don't get to shout "Hey, look at that shiny NEW timetable I've made over THERE!"

We're discussing your REAL one.

The one you had "absolute certainty" about and was inspired by the Holy Spirit and made you equivalent to an OT prophet that (so sad!) nobody would believe! :cry::cry::cry:

Indeed - if we didn't agree with your interpretation of the OT prophets - then we were REJECTING those prophets!
THAT is how certain you were you really "truly wooly" had it right this time!

This is from another forum member - defending me because you were so out of line!

"Where did user "eclipsenow" indicate that what the prophets write is not acceptable to him? He didn't. That was a very rude and inappropriate thing to say. He accepts what they say every bit as much as you do. He just interprets what they say differently than you do at times."

You escalated. This is how you write to brothers and sisters in Christ that DARE disagree with the great and all knowing Keras!

"As you have no idea of God's plans, good luck for you on this Day:"

Wow. The emotional blackmail!
It's like you're trying to CONVERT us poor 'unspirituals' with that attitude.
It says so much about your style.

You regularly resort to emotional blackmail, gaslighting, martyrs syndrome, Cassandra syndrome, spiritual pride, spiritual superiority, strawman attacks, etc.

You get very personal very quickly, and call theologians I respect "pigs".

But here's the thing.

You have shown yourself to be a false prophet.
There is no temple, and no AOD going to happen early 2026!
But even this timetable from 2020 was yet ANOTHER false attempt of yours, wasn't it?
Because you admitted you got tricked into believing the 2012 predictions!

That makes your current 2025 model your THIRD attempt at guessing the end-times-tables - but your attitude is still the same!

If we don't abandon all academic, peer-reviewed theological studies into how the Hebrews themselves used Apocalyptic Symbolism (200 BC to 200 AD), and just 'believe' you and your navel-gazing fever-dreams - we are ignoring and rejecting what the PROPHETS THEMSELVES said!

Yeah, right.
Tell me - if modern medicine accelerates with AI and we're all still here by the time this THIRD end-times-table fails, what's your next gambit look like? And your next? And the one after that? :oldthumbsup:

What arguments will you come up with then for extending your hyper literalistic end-times-tables?
(Which all in all comes down to that Nicholas Cage movie, "Knowing.")

Sadly, your attitude has not improved in 5 years.

You remind me of the secular environmental Doomers that are convinced they have the math proving when civilisation will collapse under the pressure of resource depletion, climate change, biosphere destruction, desertification, etc.

You know what?

I think they have a higher chance of being right than yourself!

‘Go to Berkeley’: Ron DeSantis said students seeking ‘woke’ classes should study elsewhere

Is a little bit of that possibly their own fault for not reigning in their more radical portions of the student body just a little bit?
Yes, violence and vandalism are right out. The ideas themselves remain, as they should.
There have been a couple different high profile incidents involving protesting (some of which escalated past normal protesting) in order to get certain speakers cancelled and disinvited from booked events.







If Berkeley doesn't want to be "unfairly labelled" as the "woke school"...

Perhaps things like "Disinviting Bill Maher, because he said something mean about Islam on HBO", and "riots with a $100k worth of damage and banned weapons being brought on campus by protestors because Milo was invited to speak", and "phoning in bomb threats to prevent Ann Coulter from speaking", and "Ben Shapiro needing to be protected by 300 cops just to get him to the venue because protestors were trying to block it" is the sort of thing they'd want to curtail a bit.


When you boil that down, it's basically like saying:

"We're not woke, we just have a large subset of people who throw temper tantrums, light stuff on fire, and phone in bomb threats when the college republican group on our campus invites people to speak who we feel triggered by"

And that "bad look" is made even worse when, for a few of those, faculty actually participated in the protesting outside the venues.

The professors should've been the first ones volunteering to go up to mic to take on Shapiro head-on during the hour long "open mic" portion of his events, not screeching out in the parking lot with some of the students.

PR is 90% of the game with regards to perception.

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

Uh, do you not know what a democracy is? Just because we have one counter democratic (which itself is chosen democratically) doesn't mean we aren't a democracy. And sidenote, naziism is facism, not socialism. You can tell by the fact that they banned and arrested actual socialists.

Let me guess: democrats were republicans when they owned slaves and the party switched as soon as democrats started doing good stuff too. Lol. The nazis also burned a bunch of pedophile books.

Federal judges block Texas from using its new US House map in the 2026 midterms

I am glad that, in an era where Texas and other states are trying to wipe all evidence of slavery off the map, racism is being called out,
Texas Senate passed a bill that forbids public schools from teaching history and current events about race that might upset students.

Average consumer now carries $6,329 in credit card debt. 'People are stretched,' expert says

Not if tendered at the cash register.
That depends on which cash register is chosen.

10% over spot seems like a pretty good deal to me.

Father, sons drowned teen daughter over her ‘Western lifestyle’

If the land that is now the US had been attained via conquest by Muslims instead of Christians & Deists, do you think such a document would've ever been drafted (with concepts like separation of church and state, and checks and balances), or would it have followed the pattern of other Muslim conquest, where after the "convert or die" phase of the process is over, the first thing to be done is establish a cleric who will rule with an iron fist and harshly punish those who step out of line based on a religious code that also acts as a legal code?
Here are some examples:
  • Indonesia: As the world's largest Muslim-majority country, Indonesia is a prominent example of a functioning, secular, and pluralistic democracy. It has successfully held multiple free elections and experienced peaceful transitions of power since transitioning from an authoritarian regime in the late 1990s.
  • Bangladesh: Bangladesh is also generally considered an electoral democracy with secular principles enshrined in its constitution, though it faces political challenges.
  • Senegal: Senegal has a long history of stability and multi-party democracy, even electing a Christian president despite a more than 92% Muslim population, highlighting its strong secular traditions and tolerance.
  • Albania and Kosovo: These European countries have Muslim majorities but are officially secular states with democratic systems.

Chat GPT is amazing for bible history, and Daniel 11:36-45

Rev 13, and last kingdom of Dan 2,7 are still future. Sounds like the first beast in Rev 13 which is a person will survive an assassination attempt.

Here is the explanation of Rev 13


Interestingly enough spiritually satanic leaven of the Pharisees "Israel" had a deadly would 70 AD when God used the Romans to destroy it, and kill the people that killed Jesus but now since the 1900s that deadly wound has healed however that is not what it means as I stated above.

The NEA is pushing far left teaching upon children

Oh, so what it is, is that you just didn't like his ironic answer. LOL!
He either lacked the intellectual honesty to answer the question honestly, or he actually cannot determine with certainty that the picture was not a cat, but human. Which in my opinion is far worse.

Trump's history of acts of kindness and generosity

The real Donald Trump?

Remember When Trump Tried to Bulldoze a Widow’s Home to Make a Parking Lot for Limos?



(Donald Trump) has spent two decades trying to evict the Scots who live next to his luxury golf course.
For almost two decades, a small band of Scots has resisted The Trump Organization’s efforts to turn their land into a playground for the super-rich. First he tried to buy them out, and then he tried to intimidate them—but they refused to uproot themselves for the sake of a billionaire’s bank account.

James alleged the non-profit failed to meet as a corporate board, failed to conduct any relevant oversight regarding grants issued and also failed to implement any policy whatsoever which might have protected the charity's funds from being skimmed by the Trump clan.

"In this vacuum of oversight and diligence, Mr. Trump caused the foundation to enter repeatedly into self-dealing transactions and to coordinate unlawfully with his presidential campaign," James said in her filing with the New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan.

Relatively amusingly, James also noted that Trump personally ordered his charity to spend $100,000 in order to settle legal claims over an 80-foot flagpole he had built at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

Last December, the Trump Foundation agreed to dissolve under judicial supervision due to Underwood's initial lawsuit.


Jury finds Trump liable for sexual abuse, awards accuser $5M


SAN DIEGO (AP) — A judge on Friday approved an agreement for President Donald Trump to pay $25 million to settle lawsuits over his now-defunct Trump University, ending nearly seven years of legal battles with customers who claimed they were misled by failed promises to teach success in real estate.

U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel said the agreement represents an “extraordinary amount” of money for customers to recover. Plaintiff attorneys say about 3,730 people will get at least 90 percent of their money back.
