• 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.

There is no Creation Debate

How did it get here?

Not the way you think. You have no evidence for that. Since I simply acknowledge that Jesus created the stars, and set them for us for time and signs, it doesn't matter so much how light works out of earth area. What matters is why.

That is false. If it requires movement, then your entire claim of a fishbowl collapses. So how does it get here?

Not in any way is that remotely close to being even partially true. You claim movement equals time as we know it! Think about it.

I don't question God. I question those that do.

I don't question your god. There is nothing there to question. Yours is simply one of the latest in a very long line of imaginary beings that mankind has concocted over the millennia, as a simple means of trying to glean understanding and to ward off the reality of death.

You offer nothing productive.

You are in no position to say. God does not depend on what you chose to see...or can see.

Unbelief is probably better described for many people as a choice that they make in what they want to accept.

Atheism has a 100% track record. No god, in any era, has ever been shown to exist.

He has shown Himself all through time actually in many ways. The track record some who reject Him have is to chose darkness and love darkness.

If it's not a belief thing as many Atheists claim, then what do Atheists believe?


You'ld have to ask them individually.
The only thing that you know about an atheist through the term "atheist", is what they do NOT believe.

They must believe in something, so what is it?

Concerning what subject?
And once again, the word "atheist" does not point to something that is "believed" by the atheist. The word only points to what the person does NOT believe.

Whatever the answer, it's got to be a faith-based belief

Que? Again.... believe about what?
