  • 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.

    Is abortion murder according to God?

    Hi Jane. I don't really have a comment here, it's just nice to see you're still posting. We used to clash years ago back when I was a Christian. Nice to see you're still around. You once gave me a nice message when I feeling down, even though we were at odds on the forums. I wish you well.

    Does anyone know if Baggins is still around? Or Jane the Bane?

    Anything new in these debates?

    I'm pretty sure this was always the case. The complaint about PRATTs people ignoring facts has always been around, even when I first joined these forums over ten years ago.

    Anything new in these debates?

    These forums actually helped to change my mind. I used to believe in creationism (being a Christian), but after seeing all the mountains of evidence against the bible and for evolution, that started a chain-reaction that lead to me discarding the faith. Obviously, these forums aren't the...

    Anything new in these debates?

    Hi. I used to visit these forums frequently years ago. I was a Christian back then, no religious beliefs now. I see that AV is still doing his [insert] challenge, (I think the first one was the "My Apple Challenge"), I see Loudmouth and Wiccan Child are still here. To the old-school heads...

    Science big questions Q&A

    But what is keeping light (or other mass-less particles) from exceeding the speed of light? Why is this the fastest speed that heat energy, photons or gluons can go?

    Science big questions Q&A

    Why is it physically impossible for anything to travel faster than light?

    best argument against evolution? (the self replicating robot)

    Because we have evidence that humans evolved over time, instead of suddenly appearing. We also have plenty of evidence that humans share ancestry with other organisms, further giving evidence for humans evolving.

    Are papercuts a selection pressure?

    I didn't say it did. I said that if human beings continue their poor diet and exercise, poorer physical traits will develop. Overuse of computers by children (rather than playing outside) were merely examples of how this can happen.

    Are papercuts a selection pressure?

    Why not? I didn't say it did. You completely misread my post.

    Are papercuts a selection pressure?

    If this continues, it will also be genetic.

    Are papercuts a selection pressure?

    You're missing the point. Evolutionary changes can happen which don't give reproductive advantage. Certain populations of human beings, like Americans, are fatter and less healthy than in previous generations. It's also been noticed that children don't play outside as much. This wont give...

    Are papercuts a selection pressure?

    Not necessarily. There doesn't need to be a reproductive pressure in order for a change to happen in a species. For example, chickens that are raised in cages; if many generations go by where they are raised in cages, that could cause this population to be physically weaker over time. This...
