• 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.

If I had to come up with something, I would surmise it was a population of apes that lived in the cold, snowy regions of the earth and adapted to their new surroundings.

Evolution, because that's one hell of an adaptation. That's even closer to chimp-like apes evolving into upright humans.

How long did it take the grizzly bear (or whatever bear it was) to turn white and become the polar bear?

There's a big difference between a change in size and height and fur colour of a grizzly/common brown bear into a polar bear, and a human turning into this:

... reminds me of Harry from Harry and the Hendersons a bit.

But what if an ape population wandered up in the snowy regions and decided to stay there?

Not possible with the human body shape. We're subject to the square-cube law heavily, which is why the really tall people, the kind who break world record's never live for long periods. It puts too much stress on that bones and organs.
