  • 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.

People I fear for you.

Gravity was once a theory, until it was proven to be a universal law of science.

Is gravity a fact, definitely.

The theory of relativity and quantum theory both try to describe gravity.

Also, Newton's Law was falsified quite some time ago. You might want to look into that.

Is Evolution a scientific fact? No. It is bad science.

Evolution is a fact. It is observed.

There is also the theory of evolution which is accepted by more than 99% of biologists. It is good science.

No one has ever claimed evolution was a universal law of science.

And your point is?

Laws are mathematical models, mostly found in physics. They don't apply to biology very well.

I don't believe in gravity. Speakout, can you provide any evidence for gravity? I think your just mkaing it all up. Gravity....a theory - so funny.
At Thanksgiving, I love turkey gravity on my mashed potatoes....

There is no fossil evidence of species changing to other species.
Wrong, there is plenty of microplaeontological evidence of that happening in Foraminifera althrough the cenozoic. All you need is a stable environment and fossils that are abundant in a near continuous sedimentary unit and phyletic gradualism is seen.

I don't expect you to read this, your mind is probably pretty well shut, but it is a short and sweet destruction of just about all creationists arguments with the fossil record and anyone else may be interested.

the Peking man was also a hoax.

Peking man was just a Homo erectus skeleton, not a hoax

Science is not opposed to God,

You got that right, science is silent on all supernatural, imaginary entities.

proper science answers questions which have nothing to do with religion.

True again, I don't see your point.

But a religion called Evolution,

It is not a religion unless you want to make the definition of the word religion meaningless

doctors evidence

A lie you will be unable to substantiate. Individual scientists have lied of the years, but for the Theory of Evolution to be a lie millions of scientists would have had to have lied over 150 years. i doubt you are dumb enough to believe that.
nd wants to move on.[/QUOTE]

Please Track back. There is no prooof for your reincarnation but you want tax payers to fund the evolution to be taught as science.

It's all going a bit weird now isn't it? what has reincarnation got to do with this? And science doesn't deal in proof, that is maths, science deals in evidence and there is plenty for evolution.

Give us any proof for you science fiction.

I have a novel by Issac Asimov, is that enough proof that science fiction exists?

Now I believe!!!

Hmm I love turkey gravity. My favourite. I believe that my attraction to turkey gravity increases with proximity.

Start another thread for Newton and Einsten theory of relativity. That is heavy stuff.

Since most of you do not understand the basics of science it will be too heavy to deal with.

Plus it opens another great window, You have to understand that Eistein was a member of the theosophical society and not an atheist. And there are scientists who doubt relativity but have been muzzled.

Okay - now your pulling my leg. Believe me, I understand the basics of science - and so do most of the people here debating you. I think it is YOU who do not know science.

Muzzling scientists. Do they make a muzzle for humans? Is it like the gimp in Pulp Fiction?

Evolution is not a law of science.


Gravity now there is a law of science. There is proof for that stuff.

There is no law of evon because it is a hypothesis at best.

They try to say it is a theory but it is not yet that, let
alone a law.

Scientific hierarchy -
  1. Theories
  2. Laws
  3. Hypotheses
  4. Facts

Facts are the least important. Facts don't explain the relationship between A and B. That's where hypotheses, laws, and theories come in. Theories are the highest in the hierarchy, consisting of a large body of knowledge, including facts, hypotheses and laws. A law is a brief descriptive compared to a theory.

Right. The people here with science degrees are the ones who don't understand science.

Do you have a source showing that Einstein was a member of the Theosophical Society? Everything I have read says that he was a Deist.

I have put up one challenge, start from the beginning and explain evolution.


Second challege: Give me the full title of Charles Darwins Origin of species.


Speciaciation: a dog and and a wolf are the same kind of species. A frog and a dog are not. People claim because a dog is a bit different from a wolf it then proves evolution. Wow, that it a big leap.

But evolution claims that creatures jump species.


We have not even gone to astrological evolution, which no one has seen yet. Do not tell me you do not know it is part of the evolution theory.


I am enjoying myself.

I am not pleased you are enjoying yourself, since your enjoyment is clearly derived from ignorance.

Evolution does not say creatures jump species - you are completely wrong.

I am not an authority of the evolution of astrology. I recommend you speak to an astrologist. However, if you wish to discuss cosmology, then I would believe that people here have the relevant knowledge.

To explain evolution would take a lot of time, but in general can be summarized common descent with modification.

To find out the title of a book, check out amazon.com

Evolution is the change in allele frequencies over time.

On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life

In Darwin's vernacular, race is equivalent to species.

Speciaciation: a dog and and a wolf are the same kind of species. A frog and a dog are not. People claim because a dog is a bit different from a wolf it then proves evolution. Wow, that it a big leap.

Chihuahuas and Great Danes can not mate. They are separate species. Due to intermediates that can funnel genes between chihuahuas and great danes they are considered a ring species.

Also, there is not such thing as "kinds of species". Besides, dogs and frogs are both vertebrates, are they not?

But evolution claims that creatures jump species.

No it doesn't.

We have not even gone to astrological evolution, which no one has seen yet. Do not tell me you do not know it is part of the evolution theory.

We are talking about biological evolution which is the process that produced the biodiversity we see today.

Evolution is a LIE created by SATAN and given to Nimrod at the Tower of Babel. See: "The Long, Long, Long, Long War Against God," by H. Morris.

"On the Origin of Species by Natural Selection, or the Racist Atheist Favoring of one RACE over Another without GOD."

They also think a Lizard gave birth to a bird and that a wolf gave birth to a whale!!11 ^_^


But evolution claims that creatures jump species.
Yes and this is sooooooooo silly!!11


We have not even gone to astrological evolution, which no one has seen yet. Do not tell me you do not know it is part of the evolution theory.
They will claim so, and also claim that "abiogenesis" has nothing to do with the "theory" of evolution!!11


I am enjoying myself.
Me two!!!!111 :wave:

Bear OH My!

There are billions of unproven theories.

Laws of scince are proven until there is new evidence to discard them.
Billions of unproved theories?

Really - unproved theories................ROFL. You really need to go to the library and read alittle concerning science. ALternatively check out the above posts - lots of accurate information to help you in your continuing education.

All theories are tentative. Didn't you know that?
