• 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.

  • 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.

Why exactly hide the existence of a Flat Earth in the first place? Like... who does it benefit, and how and why?
It's because THEY want to deceive us. That's why they want to make us believe that New Zealand exists, as well.

. I think that secret societies really hate Bible, so they try to make it look fake / diss-miss some parts of it ?
The Bible doesn't say the earth is flat.
But my theory is that you-know-who is real, like real-living-"human" , and he tries to make teachings of God look fake.
Flat Earth isn't taught in the Bible. It's just weird.

I don't buy that. That is argument for 3rd grade of elementary school. ^^



Average Joe can't go to Antarctica cause truth would be revealed. :D
If he can afford the ticket, the "average Joe" can indeed book a flight over Antarctica:

"30 Years of Antarctica Flights
We have been exploring Antarctica by air since 1994 - that's over 150 flights and 30 years pioneering a land that remains almost entirely undiscovered. Aboard a cruise ship you would only touch the edge of the coast. Aboard our privately chartered plane you will soar over a continent that escapes the boundaries of perception."

That is from the Qantas website: Antarctica Flights from Australia - Antarctica Flights

Game over for flat Earth? Really? I don't think so.
Yes. It's amazing that even highly intelligent people can be reluctant to ditch nutty but strongly held views. Just look at the number of people clinging to the fable of evolution.

Again , fair point , you raise a valid point in your post. Hmmmm .... I don't have a proper 100% correct answer on that one. But I believe in this whole ... spiritual warfare stuff , so I think you-know-who uses some tactics to like , keep us distracted from keeping our eyes on God .... So I think it is all about spiritual warfare and who wins most souls in the end .... So it's like dirty tactics in football.
Thankfully, our salvation doesn't depend at all on what we believe about the shape of the earth. "What must I do to be saved?" asked the jailer at Philippi. The apostles replied, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved." They didn't say, "Make sure you believe the right thing about the earth's shape." What one believes about the shape of the earth makes absolutely no difference to one's spiritual state.
