• 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.

One of the dumbest things I ever wanted XD, I think one of the options was a dragon, which I found hilarious given the relevant bible verses. I'd never pay for something that silly, though, and I guess the people that run CF realized it was more effort than it was worth.
I think the philosophy behind those things is that they teach responsibility.

We know about genes and genomes, and how over six feet of DNA is crammed into a tiny nucleus within a cell. Decades of detailed research have given us the static, 3-D view of the nucleus. What’s new is the frenetic activity going on inside the nucleus as chromosomes move into position and genes switch on and off. The addition of the time dimension is turning our snapshots of the genome into a movie, and it’s a blockbuster.

Two groundbreaking papers in Cell explain how Caltech scientists have peered into the moment-by-moment transcription of genes, watching portions of the genome light up as they become active. What they are finding reveals new levels of design. Who could think of chance after seeing what these scientists witnessed? ....


....The really exciting work in genetics is being done with an eye to design. These researchers did not need to explicitly endorse intelligent design to show why this is the case. The message of design comes through loud and clear in the questions they ask, and in the findings that result. The absence of evolutionary speculation improves the signal-to-noise ratio.

The same image was used in the article they were quoting. Not sure if they knew that it's not relevant though...

Perhaps, but I'm sure OP wouldn't care either. The article's author certainly didn't and likely posted it knowing it had nothing to do with anything they were writing about.

I checked out the link.
Of course you mean heaven, the Taj Mahal is representative of heaven. Or it could just be any place or object.
The one fish is Jesus and we're the other fish.
He'd have to be a very charismatic fish.
Maybe round up about 12 others and teach them about this TM place. Make friends with the mean fish and get them on his side.
Could he die and come back in a glorified body? That would be a great help.

Actually, it's really late here, but but m thinking this might be very complicated....

Thank you.

The fish are educatees, and the thread shows that science is myopic.

It has limitations on what it can see.

Agreed. It can't see before the big bang!
Or, it only sees what it wants to see.
Since it's now accepted that the universe did not always exist but came into being somehow, we have a problem.
How did something come from nothing??
No problem. I hear say that some scientists are now declaring that, indeed, something Can come from nothing.
Perhaps there's no such thing as nothing...!
