  • 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.

I wonder. is satan pleased that he has been able to turn God's creation into a conspiracy theory.
I don't believe Satan has managed to turn God's creation into a conspiracy theory, merely certain things about the universe, including the shape of the earth, moon landings, and the like, none of which affect salvation one little bit. Praise God, our salvation depends entirely on the completed work of our Saviour, not on what we believe about the earth shape, moon landings, etc.

But thankfully not about the really important matters of salvation. There are saved sinners who believe the earth to be a sphere, and saved sinners who believe it is flat.

But like evolution how many have written off The Bible as the source to God or to believe there is a God.
Because the Bible is the only way to know God. So if The Bible is put in a place to be question as to its accuracy and truthfulness. Can that not be an indirect obstacle to many.

Yes, I agree with that, but it is clear from these Forums that there are Christians who fully believe the absolute truth of God's inspired word who believe that the earth is a flat disc, and there are other Christians who fully believe the absolute truth of God's inspired word who believe that the earth is spherical. Although I have heard the matter of Creation and evolution brought up by unbelievers, I have never heard an unbeliever mention the shape of the earth as a reason for not believing the bible.

Absolutely ...... The Globe & Space is one giant obstacle for many to come to know God & his creation. I have always said, the globe has been Satan's way of hiding God & confusing God's words in Genesis 1.

John 5:46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me. But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”

Nonsense.

Have you even noticed that Jesus said Moses wrote about Him? Or do you see just the "believing Moses" part?

Speaking for myself, I have met plenty of people who say they don't believe God created everything, but I have never come across anybody who says that they don't believe the bible because of the shape of the earth or because of space.

And yet Dean Odle in his book has quoted many who were atheists have come to believe in God because of Genesis 1 & how the flat earth makes more sense in the Bible.

Praise God, though, that there are some Christians who are scientists who fully believe God's Creation.

The White House has announced the largest cut to NASA's budget in its history.

The Trump administration has slashed research funding, terminated multiple missions and allocated $1 billion toward Elon Musk's dream of sending humans to Mars.

How can a Christian scientist/astronaut believe in God's creation when they don't fully believe in Genesis 1.

Well, some scientists do, for example those connected with Creationist organisations such as Answers in Genesis.
