• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Better check ur memory then --- that's not in that thread.

Here it is (for better or worse):

A kind is a plant or animal at the top of God's taxon that contains all the genetic blueprints necessary to replenish the earth as God intended.

In early Genesis, the kinds are not easily identified, as they probably only lived for one or two generations - (but their lifespans were very long).

They would have been of the more docile, domestic kind, and certainly would not have included carnivores in their incipient stages.

These may have included such creatures as the winged horse, but that's just a guess.

By Genesis 6, the kinds would have been less docile, and leaning more toward survival in an hostile environment.

These kinds would have included the animals that are not currently mentioned in man's taxons; such as behemoth, leviathan, fowled bats, four-legged grasshoppers, satyrs, unicorns, et. al.

The point still stands that you clearly didn't have a clue what you were talking about, just spouting nonsense that you thought sounded scientific enough to throw people off the scent.

It didn't work.

Now, without using your Bible, why are humans not in the Ape "kind"?

Without my Bible???

Trying to disarm me? That Bible is the only offensive Weapon mentioned in the arsenal against Satan in Ephesians 6.

It pwns more "scientists" and atheists per square mile, than Roundup pwns weeds.

I don't want you to use the Bible because I don't accept its authority. It would be like a Muslim quoting the Koran to you.

My apologies if it sounded "scientific" --- I hold "science" up to a higher Standard than "scientists" do.

I did use the Bible --- did you recognize it?

(Hint: It's the One without the copyrite.)

Elduran's country gave It to us.

Also, are you saying that people who agree with scientific evidence and conclusions are Satanists? That seems like a very broad brush you are painting with.

No --- even I disagree with "scientific evidence and conclusions". (Not to mention the "scientists" themselves who disagree with each other.)

We are referred to as mankind
By whom? I, for instance, refer to our species as 'humanity'.
--- not to be confused at all with the other kinds in the Bible.
Which are...? I remember you made a thread about it, but you didn't actually define what a 'kind' is/was. You just said it was 'God's Taxon' or something, and left it at that, without actually explaining what 'God's Taxon' actually means.
So could you give us a definition now, or are you content to make such nonsensicle statements?

Please tell me you're joking, AV -- are you actually trotting out an idiosyncrasy of English vocabulary as proof of something?

Clearly you don't if you're happy to make up whatever you like about science in order to try and get your point heard. That's not holding it up to a higher standard at all, it's just plain dishonesty.

maybe in your own little world where you ignore those who answer your questions and you just repeat your claims over and over again till they give up.
then they are pwned only because they don't want to debate your nonsense anymore and you claim a "victory" that isn't one

By God, Himself:

[bible]James 3:7[/bible]

We're just using His terminology.

Which are...? I remember you made a thread about it, but you didn't actually define what a 'kind' is/was.

I do believe I did.

You just said it was 'God's Taxon' or something, and left it at that, without actually explaining what 'God's Taxon' actually means.

Do you know what a taxon is? Do you know what "man's taxon" would be? Then do you know therefore what "God's taxon" would be?

So could you give us a definition now, or are you content to make such nonsensicle statements?

You asked what a "kind" was --- I said it was a plant or animal at the top of God's taxon. Now you want to know what "God's taxon" is.

Where does this end, WC? Can't you think for yourself?

You guys want "religion" out of the public schools, then all you do is ask questions and accuse us of making "nonsensicle statements".

Now --- having said that --- is the definition of "kind" that I have supplied you guys good enough, or not?

If not, and you have a legitimate question; by all means, ask it.
