  • 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.

:doh:
Although the technology was around, only a few films were made in colour; it was expensive.
And the quality would have been nothing like as good as it is in that YouTube clip. I saw a little of the moon landings in 1969 - in black and white, with a grainy, flickering picture. Even "the woodentops" and kid's programmes were in black and white. It was expensive to make things in colour and not everyone could afford colour TV.
It wasn't the first thing ever shown, but there was great excitement in our school about being able to watch Princess Anne's wedding on TV in colour, in 1973.

You must have seen old black and white films and TV programmes; Laurel and Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, early Morecambe and Wise programmes or Crossroads? If not, look them up and compare the quality with modern films.

Whats this emoji for ':doh:'

In 1969 I'd be surprised if they even had the technology to get to the moon let alone walk on it.
& whats that phone call all about from Nixon :tearsofjoy:

So you accuse astronauts of being deluded Freemasons, yet when you want to "prove" the shape of the earth, you quote a Freemason?
Unbelievable.

Yes, a Freemason who has spilled the beans, makes a refreshing change.

Exasperation. Unbelief at your ridiculous statement.

In 1969 I'd be surprised if they even had the technology to get to the moon let alone walk on it.
Yet you think they had the technology to make a clear, sharp film in full colour with CGI?
Like I said :doh:.

And you've shot yourself in the foot, again, by choosing to illustrate it with a clip from a film that was made decades later.

o_O I can't help it if I find something funny.
As I said before, place your cursor over the emoji; it says "tears of joy". That means that you are crying with happiness.
In the above case, you are so happy that Nixon made a phone call to the astronauts, it's brought tears to your eyes.

You said that CGI was used.
When I said that it wasn't available in 1969 you said, "but they had Hollywood", and posted a clip from YouTube, in colour, which was meant to be a film of the moon landings before they had even been to the moon.

Laughing hysterically about a well-known fact is either ignorance, or mocking.

But I wasn't laughing at a well known fact, quite the opposite, I were laughing at the absurdity of the well known fact

Not specifically. But when I said that the moon had been photographed from space, you replied, "yes, from their CGI images", post #1,361.
There were photographs/film clips of the 1969 moon landings which showed the shape of the earth. If you reckon these were from CGI clips, the implication is that they had CGI in 1969.

It is a well-known fact - you, and a few others, are the only ones who don't know it.
Oh, and the drunk that I met on the bus the other day.

And you mock & judge, call yourself one.
So you admit that you lie. Do you think that pleases God?

As to mocking, I think I have managed to reign that in significantly in recent months, because I recognise it is not a good witness, but where have I judged?

Got Google Earth? In the search facility, paste in this:

It's where I am going for a pizza tomorrow night with the family. Do you know what those numbers represent?

You said, 'People have investigated, and photographed the earth from space. Anyone can clearly see that it is a globe' and my reply was 'Yes from their CGI images, take off your blinkers.
No mention of CGI of the 69 moon landings.

Fly from LA to Hong Kong
Look at the map! You just fly straight S across the Pacific- right?
Now look at the flight map
-
I do not fly and have no knowledge of flight or flight paths. But how ever they are, these flights are flying over a flat and stationary earth.

He can't answer why Sydney to Santiago takes less time than Sydney to Los Angeles, even though on the only flat earth map they've ever given us, Sydney to Santiago passes almost directly over L.A.
-
And you have no answer why the sun, moon and stars are seen in the sky moving over the earth and not thousand to millions to billions of miles and light years out in and outer space.
