  • 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.

    Very fair point. I've kept it but crossed it out for commentary

    Coast guard and hate symbols

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/11/20/coast-guard-swastika-noose/ For some reason a nazi symbol can manage to not be considered hate speech....just "potentially divisive". This seems to speak to the ideologies this administration are happy to empower. Getting angry at...

    Abortion: Can You Be Both?

    I would posit that it prevents them from taking place against a child (because the child doesn't exist). HAve you heard of heard of Survivor Bias? The world is broken; we can only imagine solving those as concepts. WE can help individuals only. That's what I do in my class every day and...

    Abortion: Can You Be Both?

    Which comes first being wrong or not being led by God? One is your opinion... The release of zinc I believe. IT calls it "Alive". It says that if two men fight and hit the woman causing her to miscarry and the child dies, there is a fine. If any other harm (presumably to the mother since the...

    Abortion: Can You Be Both?

    How do you think so many Jews came to the opposite conclusion as the Prolife crowd when they use some of the same texts? "Backed up by Science"? "Children ARE a reward". (....CHILDREN. I agree) Most people that I know wouldn't call a lost or ecoptic pregnancy a reward at all though. Are...

    Abortion: Can You Be Both?

    "unlawful". Ok. Regardless, I also don't consider it homicide with a fetus. I don't see how my argument fails. I mentioned those people were broken. They don't make good choices. I would never ever EVER suggestion force for that (I've already said I don't "like" abortions). They absolutely...

    Abortion: Can You Be Both?

    1) Nope. Not if it's little more than an conglomeration of cells. Not to me. 2) Also, out of curiousity, is your argument then that BEFORE a heartbeat, it's NOT "murder"? Whoa. Back up. You just provide your logic and then confidently said it's "God's stance". I'm saying it does not yet...

    Poll: 7 in 10 voters support requiring doctor’s visit for abortion pills

    I gotta tell you that "Democracy Medicine" is 100% NOT how I want I want to be diagnosed or treated. Too many people's feelings and not enough medical facts informing that.

    Abortion: Can You Be Both?

    By the way, thanks folks. I recognize I am in a far minority and I always feel very vulnerable having this conversation because too often I feel a bit misunderstood. But, conversely, I always like trying to explain my opinion to be better understood that I am not an awful person or awful...

    Abortion: Can You Be Both?

    Again. I am 48 years old. I have sentient and clearly born. You were aghast that I likenned "lieing" to "getting an abortion"....and here you are comparing a 48 year old grown adult male to a FETUS? As you wrote, [shakes head] "Should be given". 1) Why "should" it? 2) I agree adoption is...
