  • 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.

They may as well be if you're building cities out of them.
Dude, do you even metaphor?
The dimensions and materials and details of the eternal home of believers are given.

So, to recap, are you afraid of alien invasions and want to evacuate the planet? Let's look at you.

Returning to the OP. I have heard a number of scientists suggest that humanity needs to spread out to other planets and even other solar systems but I have never ever heard even the remotest suggestion that we should "evacuate the earth".
Have you ever seen the Arecibo message?

It supposedly tells aliens where Earth is.

Now they think we should vacate the earth before they get here!

Today's science at its best! :thumbsup:

Why question His building materials?

Why not?

So where would you...or Hawking like to flee?

Who's fleeing? It's called expanding.

When your house gets too small, you either move to a new one or build an extension.

What's so impressive about colored rocks?
I find a diamond two stories high and over 6000 miles long pretty impressive. What is so impressive about chicken littles running around asking us to abandon the planet?!

Y'know, when you're calling the conclusions of one of the greatest minds of the modern era "insane fearmongering", it would behoove you to explain why you think it such.
I thought he did.
Greatest Minds can make the Greatest Mistakes.
Maybe, but many scientists agree. Science is mind damage to a large extent!
Quantity = quality?
Is that science? ;)

Becuase diamonds are valuable and you like money?

Why do you persist in propagating that lie? Is the truth too inconvenient?

Yes, indeed!

The Rapture is called our ...

Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Not a rapture believer. Sounds like the 2nd coming. Only heard of 2.

I also agree that if there are aliens and they come here, regardless of their intentions, we're hosed.
They're already here. Been here for a long time.

They been hosing us a long time, with human co-operatives.

The angle where God finds it necessary to impress people with a flying city made entirely out of bling.

There's gaudy and then there's gaudy, you know?
