• 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.

He most certainly did. And we have the autographs to prove it. You can even go see them for yourself if you're so inclined.
Is that what it takes to convince you? the autographs? do you have the autograph for Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica? or the lliad?

Why would that be "tweaked" depending on evidence? Since when did evidence make a difference to you? And wasn't creation supposed to end on day seven?
Babies are still made, and stars and islands. All after creation. Let's not get into semantics. Yes, I have looked at the Hawaiian chain and hot spot a few times in threads gone by. I suppose a few of those were hot threads. So basically we have a time when the laws changed and we see a pattern of magnetic changes also. If the separation did not take much time neither did the magnetic pattern! Same with the pattern of daughter materials that you like to associate with age. Naturally heat was involved. Voila a hot spot! Still hot to some degree as we speak. All fits like a glove I doubt any tweaks on my end will be needed. ..On your end you will need more of a demolition and rebuilding after decontaminating than a tweak or two:)

Once again God is making it look like these islands came about in a different way from which they did. Why? Why aren't the other islands in the chain the same age?
Why would they be? I suspect it would have taken days of weeks maybe months...so some would be newer. (younger)

Evidence is what convinces me. The kind of evidence we've accumulated over the last 150 years to support Darwin's theory of evolution. I was just pointing out the fact we have his original writings, since you brought it up.

And what evidence drives you to say this:
Paul didn't write 2 Thess.
If Paul didn't write 2 Thessalonians, did Homer write the lliad?

Several textual analyses and criticisms lead scholars to suggest is wasn't written by Paul, but someone who may have known or traveled with Paul.

As for who wrote 2 Thess or Iliad, don't care.

Then I'll take your posts with a grain of salt, how's that?

You say you run on evidence, but you're certainly not fooling me.

Lazy. You never explain anything. It's now time that you do.
No problem. Name something specific.
Give us some details of your different past state and we'll see if it explains anything.
It isn't mine it is just how it was.

The Hawaiian islands, did they form in this or the previous state?
I will use the working hypothesis that they formed in the former state as well as this one. A product of the split. Any reason I shouldn't?

Yes, creation stopped in the seventh day, remember?
No. I missed that one. The original creation was done of course. Part of this creation was the ability to reproducible and evolve etc. Remember the be fruitful and multiply thingie?

Evolve? Did you just say evolve? :D And as far as I know, landmasses cannot "be fruitful and multiply".
