• 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.

There’s no problem. It’s just an indication that this craft is all over the world and were in the hands of a select few.

You mean those who had access to stone, tools to cut and shape said stone, and the ability and manpower to shape and shift and fit those stones together into architecture fitted for their needs and desires?

Yes, that is quite a select few.

Yes, the knowledge, and the resources. But I would argue not all of them are hewn stone.

So you can claim.
No there are many scholarly resources you can find that some blocks on these sites are geopolymer concrete. That would explain why some of them sound like bells when hit.

... they're made out of geoplymer concrete so they sound like bells when hit...

The one does not follow the other at all. For something to sound like a bell when hit, it has to be hollow and in the shape of a bell. Its material composition doesn't matter, just its shape.

That’s just wrong. Even a piece of porcelain makes a sound.

... everything makes a sound when you hit it! That's how acoustics works! But for something to sound like a bell, it needs to be a hollow shape; that is the simplest need for something to sound like a bell.

What it's made out of doesn't matter a jot, it's the shape that makes the sound.

Sigh why do I have to do everything for you.


These are found in India as well and I believe America too.

Wow, so that's not hyperbole from you.

And I also just checked: Ringing stones. They're found all over the world. There's even some sites in the UK.

It's their natural composition. Your point about geopolymer is still wrong though.

How the hell do you get natural composition like that. I’m just guessing it’s geoplymer, because they had lots of different geoplymers.

Because nature is weird.

Ringing Rocks: Sonorous Rocks, Musical Rocks

Composition: The key lies in the rock's composition and structure. Ringing rocks are typically fine-grained, silica-rich rocks like quartzite, rhyolite, or basalt. These materials have a dense, homogeneous structure with minimal internal flaws, allowing sound waves to travel efficiently.

It's also amazing that we've gone from flat earth, to Tartaria, to ancient pre-flood civilizations to whatever this is now.
It helps to put some off-topic padding in the thread so some people don't have to look at the images of real phenomena that destroy their worldview.
