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 four dead men included a fisherman, a down-on-his-luck bus driver, a former military cadet and a local crime boss.Trump has accused boat crews of being narco-terrorists. The truth, AP found, is more nuanced
One was a fisherman struggling to eke out a living on $100 a month. Another was a career criminal. A third was a former military cadet.
apnews.com
The 42-year-old [fisherman] was considered among the peninsula’s best pilots, [and] wanted to save enough money to buy a 75-horsepower boat engine so he could operate his own [fishing] boat and not work for others.

The Bavarian city of Regensburg has withdrawn restrictions banning prayer vigils near an abortion clinic following court rulings that found the buffer zone violated constitutional freedoms, according to a report by CNA Deutsch, CNA’s German-language news partner.
The Bavarian city lifted its 100-meter (328-foot) exclusion zone around abortion facilities on Oct. 24 after suffering setbacks before both the Regensburg Administrative Court and the Bavarian Administrative Court, according to a Nov. 6 press release from the international human rights organization.
The city established the buffer zone in summer 2025, effectively prohibiting prayer vigils held by the group Helpers for God’s Precious Children Germany in the immediate vicinity of the clinics, CNA Deutsch reported Nov. 7.

“We at The Mission Church simply want to be able to worship and support our local Jewish community without fear or intimidation," Pastor JC Cooper said in a statement. "It's of the utmost importance that our congregation feels safe in our house of worship."

The parental rights group Defending Education filed a complaint last week against Princeton University with the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights, accusing the university of violating Title IX civil rights law by denying female students' rights to sex-segregated intimate spaces, requesting that the department investigate.
