• 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.

Your very rude to someone who has wrote in a well mannered way.

This was KWCrazy's first ever statement to me, before I had ever spoken to him:

KWCrazy said:
You believe this stupidity and you're an educator? That explains the problems with our education system.

I have no use for blaspheme, so I will NOT be seeing any more of your posts. Goodbye.

I think I'm being rather kind to him in comparison to his opening and closing salvo.

toolmanjantzi said:
Yes, Google. Thanks

That's not what I was asking you to respond to. I said the following to you without a response back:

toolmanjantzi said:
I choose a religion based on theology that agrees with scripture. I am a Christian because of the Author and Finisher of my Faith, Jesus Christ The Lord.

BlueLightningTN said:
1) His name was Yeshua, not Jesus, so you might as well be calling him "Bob Christ the Lord."
2) Why is it scripture?

toolmanjantzi said:
Because nature shows us this? Are you sure your ancestors were chimpanzees? I mean eating your young, canibilism, killing, stealing, etc; is what would be considered natural.

Once again what is it you measure your morale against.

BlueLightningTN said:
Nobody says that our ancestors were chimpanzees. Besides that, apes demonstrate social moral concepts against stealing, violence, murder, etc. You really should study some of this. I suspect your lack of study is why you felt confident going into this discussion, and why you seem frustrated now.

Feel free to respond.

That's a start. From there, put your thinking cap on, as I have given you many clues to the mystery. If you don't have one, I can't help you.

Oh there it is. Wow, thanks. Glad you could show me the way.

Yes, our close cousins do often act like us, unfortunately. They also show completely opposing behavior on a regular basis, displaying concepts of morality and justice.

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/20/science/20moral.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

However, you failed to respond to the following:

1) Why call your savior "Jesus," when his real name was "Yeshua"?
2) Why is the bible scripture?
3) Do you change your position and accept that nobody believes humans are descended from chimpanzees?

I'm not Armaic or Greek, or a Hebrew. Please forgive me for referring to Jesus by the name that is used in vain often by nonbelievers because it is in my language.

When you don't speak the language of someone's name, do you often just call them whatever fancies you? Like, do you refer to Jaque Couseau as Jimmy Cousins and tell people, "I'm sorry, I don't speak French"?

Yeshua. It's his name.

Also, you failed a second time to answer the questions:

1) Why call your savior "Jesus," when his real name was "Yeshua"?
2) Why is the bible scripture?
3) Do you change your position and accept that nobody believes humans are descended from chimpanzees?

Just agreeing that you call him that without telling me why doesn't really answer anything.
