  • 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.

AI Overview

Based on the standard mathematical formula for the Earth's curvature, there is approximately a
67-foot drop (specifically around 66.66 to 67 feet) over a distance of 10 miles.
AI is obviously hallucinating. I'm amazed at how much trust you put into a man made, large language model. You should ask it if the earth is a globe or is it flat.

And why are you posting something that speaks of "Freedom from religion"?

Because this poster speaks volumes. It's exactingly what science (NASA) are doing.

Rubbish.

Science does not equal NASA.
There are scientists in hospitals, schools, universities, pharmacies and working in labs everywhere.
You seem to have an irrational hatred of NASA, even though you don't know anyone who works there. Or is the hatred based on fear because they challenge your beliefs with facts?

I see what has happened here. A.I. has calculated drop with eye level at zero instead of at average observer height. I take it that when you look into the distance, you always do it lying down with your face on the ground?

It does no such thing. Science (especially NASA) points to deception.
Just because some scientists are deceptive, that doesn't men all are. As I have mentioned before, some scientists are believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. I expect some of them work for NASA.

You don't know that at all.

I've said before that there are, approximately, 17,000 people working for NASA - that's the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, based in America.
I am pretty sure that you said, somewhere, that you don't know anyone who works there.
You don't know their beliefs.
You don't know their qualifications, what projects they are working on, what experiments they have done etc etc.
You just hear the word NASA, think "Moon landings" and "fake, lies."

I doubt very much that you have studied the documents that NASA produce and test the claims for yourself because you "can't get your head around science."

That's why some scientists become Christians, is it?
Some astronauts, sent and employed by NASA, who walk on the moon become believers in Jesus who is THE Truth?

Like it or not, some NASA employees are Christians, are saved, believe in Jesus and are just as loved by, and precious to, God as you are.

No, the media is not trustworthy. But then again, that's not the question I answered.:sigh:

And you saying 'Newsweek and CBC' does nothing to say from where you ACTUALLY got the idea that the technology to go the moon is lost. Articles, videos, tweets, whatever.

If you want anyone to take you seriously here, make the effort to BE taken seriously.

Yeah I’ve never like the whole scoring idea in CF.
I dunno, I get a warm fuzzy feeling when I see someone laughs at one of my super cereal posts.

So yeah, that's just completely a bunk idea because it does nothing to explain either how the moon sets or rises in different parts of the world, nor how we get the phases of the moon.

So... worthless. A good try, but worthless.
