  • 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 something called buoyancy among gasses as well, which is how balloons work. Meaning lighter gasses will float up. A firmament is absolutely necessary for our atmosphere to exist, otherwise the vacuum would suck it out, as 1 G force is not enough to hold out against a vacuum and this has been demonstrably demonstrated.

The footage we have of the ISS travelling at supposed 50,000 km/h show absolutely no friction even in very light textile fabrics. This goes to show the footage is fake, because even you yourself say there shouldn’t be a vacuum there.
The ISS is still in space. It travels at 28000 km/h not 50000 km/h. There is space travel to the ISS regularly. A rocket leaves earth’s atmosphere and docks with the ISS to deliver supplies and exchange astronauts. Your understanding of vacuum is lacking and does not include the understanding of the function of Earth’s five layers of atmospheres plus the ionosphere. The atmospheres are the firmament and it is not solid. Your understanding comes from a misreading of scripture.

No, I’m not misreading scripture, which clearly states there is water above.

28,000km/h is still fast enough to give a noticeable effect on textiles, if there were a gas there. You even said the moon is within the atmosphere.

Objects that small wouldn’t be seen that far away. This is explained in the video.
I’m not watching a made up, conspiracy theory, obviously wrong video. You need to discern between nonsense and truth.

The video showed globers explaining moving lights bigger than the stars to be satellites. This is ridiculous if you take into account how small a satellite is and how far away it is supposed to be.

Ok so explain how a hot air or gas balloon works.



Easy. Create a vacuum, then hold it against the surface of the earth, and see if the air is sucked into the vacuum or stays due to gravity :rolleyes:
It has to do with the difference in pressure and the weight of the gas. It is how your lungs force oxygen through the membranes and how an inflated car tire weighs more than an uninflated car tire. It is how hot air goes up your chimney. I suspect you are not serious. The physics is primary school level.

Yes you are misreading scripture. What you are reading is observational writing which is basically what it looked like to Moses who wrote Genesis.

Not in space. I did not say the moon is within the atmosphere. The moon is 238,000 miles from earth. We know that because during the Apollo landings a series of mirrors were left on the surface of the moon so that we can shoot a laser at them and measure the distance. These mirrors are still there and are still in use today.

It’s actually Ptolemaic cosmology.

Please sir, come back when you’ve acquired a laser and got a reading.

Not only is that true, but it has been demonstrated by many countries. Some of them don’t like the US, and there is no reason they would support NASA claims if they could disprove them.

I've explained all this once.

The Antarctica encircles the whole earth leaving the Arctic in the center, there is no east, west & south when navigating by sea and this is why all compasses point to the Magnetic North.

View attachment 374111

King James Bible
For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.

Compass = Come Pass
That doesn't explain why the scientists on Antarctica, or the people who take the QANTAS flights over Antarctica, or the explorers who have reached the South Pole, have not seen a huge ice wall surrounding the whole earth.

The verse about promotion does not mention the Arctic or the Antarctic.

The word "compass" has nothing to do with the two words "come pass." The Online Etymolgical Dictionary says "compass" comes from Old French compas "circle, radius; size, extent; pair of compasses" (12c.), from compasser "to go around, measure (with a compass); divide equally," from Vulgar Latin *compassare "to pace out," from Latin com "with, together" (see com-) + passus "a step" (from PIE root *pete- "to spread").

Using a smiley in my post above does not address the post. Of course, that is common when conspiracy theorists like you do not have a cohesive answer when presented with true evidence.

But what about muh gravity.

Ptolemaic cosmology dates to 100ad or so while the book of Genesis was written in the 15 century BCE. You are wrong again.
Please sir, come back when you’ve acquired a laser and got a reading.
Didn’t I tell you that the mirrors are still in use today? Didn’t I tell you that they are there? Why don’t you do yourself a favor (a big one) and do some ACTUAL research instead of believing all of the nonsense from social media.

Are you still yapping about this? This is hardly what I would call flying over but back and forth.

Says who, NASA? You expect me to trust NASA? Come back when you have a credible source on the matter that doesn’t use CGI and VR productions.

I am not "yapping" about anything. I am referring to this site: Antarctica Flights from Australia - Antarctica Flights Whether that is the same site that you got your image from, I don't know - I didn't see it there. As for your "back and forth" comment, the site says: "Whilst we will be over the Antarctica Treaty area for around 4 hours, approximately 3 - 4 hours will be spent flying over the Antarctic continent." (my emphasis)

It’s objective truth. If they are still in use by scientists around the world from different agencies and countries then it is not just NASA saying that they are there.
You expect me to trust NASA? Come back when you have a credible source on the matter that doesn’t use CGI and VR productions.
It’s beyond NASA. You can’t prove that the mirrors are there nor can you prove that scientists around the world still use them today. Your nonsense is toast.
