  • 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.

it seems like creationists arn't looking 4 the truth

You used the word Exclude not the word Disagree.

That's right --- they exclude God from their literature --- and IMO, they should include Him in it.

How should God be included in Computer Science lit?
  1. Charles Babbage was a creationist.
  2. Job 38:35 could be a reference to digital communication.

A persons name and a Bible verse do not answer the question. You claim God is excluded yet you refuse to explain how God should be included. Why is that?

Again - "How should God be included in Computer Science lit?"

I haven't a clue --- I don't read computer science lit --- let alone write it. Find someone who writes it and, if possible, tell them to include God in the places that contradict Scripture (if those places exist).

My point is that where science literature contradicts Scripture --- science literature is wrong.

I am not in the "proving business" --- God is.
You make statements then when called on them you claim you didn't say what you said you did. When called on that you then dance around the point.

Does you Bible only detail 9 of the 10 commandments?

You guys don't understand. I said where science disagrees with the Bible, science is wrong.

Or... The Bible is wrong (your intepretation anyway)?

God gave us brains and expects us to use them; but not to discredit Him.

Right. So why are you discrediting him then?

It's okay to build technology (now), but just don't forget Who gave us the resources (and when).

Right. And what does this have to do with paleoclimates or comparative genomics?

No - the automated testing of one of my software applications is still running so I have time continue this discussion.

But I guess when called on your past statements it is easier to hurl insults than admit you danced around the truth.

Medical and agricultural research excludes God from their literature by creating video games and the movie Jurassic Park?

You make absolutely no sense whatsoever.
  • THE HIPPOCRATIC OATH


    I swear by Apollo the physician, by Æsculapius, Hygeia, and Panacea, and I take to witness all the gods, all the goddesses, to keep according to my ability and my judgement, the following Oath.
    "To consider dear to me as my parents him who taught me this art; to live in common with him and if necessary to share my goods with him; to look upon his children as my own brothers, to teach them this art if they so desire without fee or written promise; to impart to my sons and the sons of the master who taught me and the disciples who have enrolled themselves and have agreed to the rules of the profession, but to these alone the precepts and the instruction. I will prescribe regimen for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgement and never do harm to anyone. To please no one will I prescribe a deadly drug nor give advice which may cause his death. Nor will I give a woman a pessary to procure abortion. But I will preserve the purity of my life and my art. I will not cut for stone, even for patients in whom the disease is manifest; I will leave this operation to be performed by practitioners, specialists in this art. In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves. All that may come to my knowledge in the exercise of my profession or in daily commerce with men, which ought not to be spread abroad, I will keep secret and will never reveal. If I keep this oath faithfully, may I enjoy my life and practice my art, respected by all men and in all times; but if I swerve from it or violate it, may the reverse be my lot."
Wrong god in your literature.
  • Wikipedia said:
    Ancient OriginsDeveloped independently by geographically distant populations, evidence suggests that agriculture first appeared inSoutheast Asia, in the Fertile Crescent area of Mesopotamia. Around 9500 BC, farmers first began to select and cultivate food plants with specific characteristics.
Wrong dating in your literature.

Let me reiterate --- make a better x-ray machine if you have to --- make the crops grow better if you have to --- but don't contradict Scripture doing it.

Does it make sense now, nv - (since I've brought Apollo and 9500 BC into the picture)?

Ya --- now you guys understand! ;)

So... the parts of the Bible that say illness and mental defect are caused by evil spirits... they should be put into medical tecxtbooks over the bits about pathogenic organisms and neurochemical imbalance?

James 5

5:13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

Acts 19
19:12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

19:15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? [SIZE=-1][/SIZE]19:16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

So... straight answer time... would you like medical texts to replace antibiotics with touching the handherchief of Paul?

No I would not --- I don't believe in that stuff anymore. I believe God still heals today, but not for the reasons He did in the book of Acts.

Incidentally, the full name of that book is:
  • The Acts of the Apostles
  • not, The Acts of the Holy Spirit.

uhuh... and you base this on? does this mean there is now a part of the Bible you don't believe? And back to the initial question... you want medical texts to have God in them, I've cited you a bit of the Bible that says man is ailed by bad spirits... which you have dismissed... so what, exactly, is it you want medical texts to change?
