• 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.

Well let me spell this out for all you guys.

When I said you were sooooooooooo predictable, I was not referring to when you give the facts on science. I was referring to your attitudes toward people who disagree with you. Your offenses and defenses seem like they all came out of the same manual.

When I said it's not the science I was talking about. I should have highlighted or italicized the word science of more emphasis.
Can you specify what my attitude is towards creationists? I am interested to see how far you will go to generalize my position(s).

I don't know. It reads that way from where I sit.

but I'm gonna send you some blessings anyway so you can get your character set up.
I appreciate the blessings and the thought. That is very nice of you and I want to get my character set up. eta: For a minute I thought you were another member but after re-reading the posts I was in error. :)

They do, pretty much - scientific method. If you make a claim, we ask for evidence.

So what if they do? Let's stick to the meat of the matter, rather than dipping into personalizations.

Really? 'Cause 'Evolution is a lie' is four words genius.
Oh my dear, haven't you heard? JohnR7 has fled CF due to horrible evidence being thrown at him! Poo those Evolutionists and their fossils :(

Havn't been here in a long time. Some things never really change.
I know. Try as we might to help those trapped in the heretical delusion that is creationism they just are not interested in the truth.

It's enough to make you cynical.

Sorry TechnoC, I haven't seen much of your posts so I would have to wait before I comment on you personally. My comments are for those who I generally get feed back from.

I also would like to know how you can accurately describe a person's attitude by online posts alone, given that you have not met me in person, nor have you known me my entire life.

I'm sorry but have I said anything about you that bothered you? I don't remember doing so. You can get a feel for what people are like if you have a mind to listen to what they have to say. :)

I find the idea that a person claiming the audacity to pass judgement on someone's attitude based on online discussions to be quite bothersome.

That doesn't mean you can generalize on their attitudes, as you have done so earlier in this thread. Each person is unique, and you cannot expect to learn everything about a person's character via text-based discussions alone.

I guess we disagree. Now take you. It appears you are angry and want to get into it. Well, I'm not and I'm not going to. Smiles.

This is exactly of what I was talking about. You assume I am angry based upon what I wrote, when in fact I'm not angry at all. See what I mean about making assumptions about other people based on online conversations? :) I speak bluntly on many an occasion, but that doesn't give you the authority or the evidence to suggest anything about my emotional state unless I explicitly make it known.

But you did.
