  • 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 thought @prodromos mean''''''t someone on here.
It still applies.

I've said, a couple of times, that I fully believe Genesis 1 AND that the earth is a globe, and your reply has been, "you can't do."
You've also told me that my motive for writing certain things has been ....... when you are not a mind reader and have no idea what I've been thinking.

And I don't have time too explain every video I post - Sorry.
We've seen in the past that you don't even watch every video you post. Like the one when Buzz Aldrin apparently said that he did not go to the moon, where in fact he said the complete opposite.
If your "research" involves going to YouTube, typing "Flat Earth" into the search engine and then posting whatever video it suggests, without watching it, understanding it or being able to explain it in your own words, no wonder you contradict yourself and get tied in knots.

Slightly changing the subject, are there any copyright rules regarding the posting of other people's videos?

He did not, he blatantly said, 'Because we never went there.' I can show the video again if you want.

In denial of what ? If you mean the globe well yes I am, very much so.
In denial means unwilling to accept something which is unpleasantly true. So yes, you are in denial of the globe earth, because for you, it's unpleasantly true.

But this is a discussion forum, not a cinema. What would be the use of the forum if all we did was post links to videos back and forth to each other?

Interesting :D

I've seen the video and I told you at the time what he said and what the context was.
Elsewhere in the video they were talking about going BACK to the moon. You can't go back to somewhere if you've never been there at all.

I don't think there's any problem as long is it links to the original source.

I'm in denial because it's unpleasantly not true.

That's not the meaning of being "in denial".

AI overview:

"In denial" means refusing to accept that something unpleasant is true, often as a way to avoid emotional pain. It's a state where a person doesn't acknowledge a painful reality, despite evidence to the contrary. This can manifest as minimizing problems, avoiding responsibility, or getting defensive when certain topics are brought up.

Yep.

You can't be in denial that it's NOT true.
Either it's true and deep down, you know, or suspect, it but don't want to think about/acknowledge it - you are in denial.
Or it's not true - in which case there's nothing to deny.
Am I in denial that my parents were French? No, because they weren't and it can be proved.

The litte girl asks Buzz 'why haven't we been back to the moon' & Buzz answers 'Because we did't go there.'

You lost context again. Why is it that you seem to find it so hard to understand context?

I know what he said, I'm not deaf.
The question was "Why has nobody been to the moon in such a long time?"

That's the context. The answer was in that context. If somebody asks you why you haven't been to shops in a week, and you answer "I never went", and then proceeded to explain why, does that mean you never went to the shops in your life?

So why, in your view, was Buzz Aldrin not punished by NASA? Before, when talking about why Christian astronauts, according to you, lie and say they have been to the moon, you have said that NASA made them sign some document in which they had to agree never to reveal the supposed secret that the moon landings were faked. Now you are saying that Buzz Aldrin publicly said that he had never been to the moon. Do NASA have one rule for Buzz Aldrin, and another for Christian astronauts like Charles Duke?

We've been through all this on the moon thread.
