• 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.

Dawkins allows for the possibility, however small in his estimation, that he is mistaken.

Do you?
No.

I agree with my 5-year old niece ... he is wrong.

66 books worth.

Romans 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

How many did you read?
Funny how your quote (the best you could come up with I suppose) does not refer to evolution at all. Just how did you read that and then conclude that Satan invented evolution?

Unlike Mr. Darwin, who wrote about favoured races, and had a Ph.D in Nothing.
Ad hominem argument? Does it matter if he didn't have a PhD?

My dear friend, do you need me to QV my post on what Solomon concluded about [pre-science] evolution?

Did Solomon conclude anything about the modern theory of evolution? You know... what we are discussing? No?.... then forget it. :wave:

Nah, if we needed cheesy self-serving Bible interpretations, we'd ask.

It's what he doesn't agree with that's my point, chief.

I'll rephrase the question, hoss -- why should we care a lick what Mr. Dawkins doesn't agree with?

I thought maybe you would welcome him around these parts.

Well, I thought maybe you could learn a few things from him.

Of course, if you're past the learning stage, then perhaps you wouldn't care.

And what can we learn from him, AV?

Well ... maybe you could stand next to him and have your picture taken, then come back here and call someone a narcissist for using his post count to pwn someone who's falsely accusing him of never saying something he has, in fact, said; then realize that maybe ... just maybe ... you need to look in the mirror?

Think so?

Nah! ;)

I think you have me confused with someone else.

I also think it doesn't make a bit of difference to you.

So, let me ask again -- What can I learn from Mr. Dawkins, AV?

Note how yet another thread has become about him and his ego instead of the actual topic.

Shocking. Shocking...
