• 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.

Thoughts on the deep dive of the capsule with 5 people?

What we’re trying to tell you is there was never a moment they realized all was lost. The time it took to completely pulverize all biological elements in that sub was quicker than the time it takes the brain to process sensation. It’s as peaceful a death as there is, from an experiential standpoint.
I get your point after the fact!

There are a multitude of possibilities.
Yeah but what if you are wrong. It’s scary to think. Think of it like this if I’m wrong i haven’t lost anything. I don’t engage in some of the so called pleasures that others engage in. I look forward to heaven. I try and help as many people as i can in this life that’s my vice i wish i could help more.

You are hillarious! Let’s say this how about a place where there’s no tears no war no need for guns death or sadness. No mass shootings. Children dying from senseless violence. Or your body transforms into a spiritual angelic body you can move around at will gravity time as we know it doesn’t exist. No need for medicine you won’t get sick. Kingdoms of gold and beauty. Joy and peace. Happiness. That sounds like bliss. You will come to a knowledge to understand everything meet your creator

Eternity does not sound like bliss. Something outside of the home all humans have ever known? Not interested. Honestly, how many billions of years before you are just done? and eternity in worship? One hour of church a week was more than I cared for. Mercy is to fade to black.

That's only the case if there are only two options, death being the end of existence or the Christian afterlife, as I said there are multiple options. We could both be wrong.

Space ships have been working out pretty well for astronauts, aside from the Challenger and Columbia accidents.
So have submarines. The Navy has lots of them.
Do you drive a car? Do you believe people being able to move at 65MPH is an attempt to escape God's judgement? Car designs are based on science.
I drive a car. That’s different.

Hmmm. There are two options being an afterlife or no afterlife. If there’s an afterlife
you are wrong. 51% believe in some type of afterlife. Unsure how we got here. But the folks on the submarine have undoubtedly came to a full awareness about the matter.

Driving a car is getting me to one place to another. Something that has to be done i.e. plane, walking riding a bike. Why would i jump in a submarine or a spaceship? It’s not a necessity? It’s purely from my own lust for something.

...or there is an afterlife, but not the one you believe in and the deity presiding over it is not thrilled about your lack of belief in it.

Too bad they are unable to report back with their findings.

If you were driving for the sake of enjoyment and not necessity would that be trying to escape your deities judgment?

What is happiness, bliss, beauty, joy, peace without their counterparts to give context. How do I know I am happy if I can”t be sad. What is joy without sadness. Etc. circling back to the billionaires, they have everything they could ever want. They are not satisfied, so they risk death just to feel something more. Life’s roller coaster is what makes life so precious. Knowing you can lose everything makes the good so much more beautiful. What is love if you have no fear of losing it?

Ok. But by your thinking theirs none period. True but sad. Have you read the story of Lazarus and the rich man.

Our thinking and emotions will be changed. Our finite minds will be changed the need for a spouse bodily desires will be changed. I have had enough sadness in this life. Hence this story to imagine a kid who says I don’t want to go but a father that insist. His mother is hurt and mourning a father and a son. I beg to differ…Hearing about this story mass shootings children dying is more than enough in this life. Crying when you look at the news everyday. No sir. I am good not to risk the things I love.

The reason a billionaire will risk everything when they supposedly have everything is because the statement that says money and things can not buy happiness. The scripture that says if all i have is this world i will be a man most miserable. The soul longs for joy peace its creator. Longing to see the other side. Longing for more than just this life. The song says you can have this world- give me
Jesus. Even when i feel i have attained every goal what’s lacking is the longing for your creator. Somethings your spouse your family can not give you.

All that you can be sure is real is this life. You describe your ideal of heaven, your dream escape after this life, but you cannot know it exists, it is only a hope. It is quite sad to be miserable in this life because this may be all that you have. I see it different, this is all that I have so love deeper, see more beauTy, feel more joy. No, money can’t buy happiness, but perhaps neither can heaven, if it exists.

No, sir. The difference between a True Christian is the fact we know that our savior exist and therefore heaven exists. I know for a surety it exists. The sad part is that this is all that you have a life if best 80 years possibly 90? I feel joy because i believe the existence of my savior. And the senseless acts of violence sting of death when someon you live is taken from you doesn’t hurt as much. Death where is your sting
