  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    The BIG BANG! Theory And Other Christian Science.

    [dd]The Big Bang! theory is not a good theory. It has so many gaping holes in it that it will never make a good theory. But that is beside the point. The point is that the Big Bang! theory is now, and always was, a theory presented by a Christian organization. What their ultimate purpose in...

    Korea, the US, and two innocent little girls.

    [dd]Saying that the soldiers who ran over the young girls are responsible for their actions is not a matter of wishing ill against the U.S., nor is it unjustly putting blame on the soldiers who are the ones who ran over the girls with their heavy equipment. It is addressing the reality of the...

    Another disappointing article from Daniel Pipes.

    [dd]That is a strange, but predictable, attitude coming from the corporate/government's propaganda machine. They always try to sound like they are giving balanced and responsible views, but when they feel like they are being pressed, out come the brass knuckles and the low blows. Anyone who...

    The BIG BANG! Theory And Other Christian Science.

    [dd]Well, I don't know why you people are denying that Big Bang! cosmology is a Christian invention. Are you reading the articles I referenced too fast? Or are you reading them at all? [dd]Georges Lemaitre first proposed the whole universe expanding from a single atom in 1927. Hubble confirmed...

    Korea, the US, and two innocent little girls.

    [dd]I understand your need to be patriotic, considering the state of war that your country is in, but that does not address the subject of this thread in any way. Saying that I do not have the right to speak on this subject is also not addressing the subject. I happen to know what the situation...

    Korea, the US, and two innocent little girls.

    [dd]I don't blame you for being disgusted with my comments about the state of the military if you don't know of the condition that it is in. It certainly is a disgusting situation and by no means is that the way it should be. But that's what happens when you employ people in such an occupation...

    Korea, the US, and two innocent little girls.

    [dd]I don't mean to insult people who care enough about their country that they wish to defend it. I merely endeavor to state the facts and the nature of the situation so that it is clearly understood. But the reputation of the good soldiers is going to be tarnished by the actions of the bad...

    The BIG BANG! Theory And Other Christian Science.

    [dd]The church did persecute Galileo Galilei, but after that they realized the error of that and actually built some observatories. If you read the article on that, which I posted in the thread starter, you will see that the Vatican owned some of the earliest observatories. [dd]The Big Bang...

    The BIG BANG! Theory And Other Christian Science.

    [dd]So far you guys seem to be missing the point. I was trying to show that Christian organizations are not biased against science, but are, rather, supporting science. To insinuate that the Christians have tried to revise history by claiming authorship for a theory that they were the ones who...

    Korea, the US, and two innocent little girls.

    [dd]The fact of whether there was a paved sidewalk beside the dirt road, or not, is irrelevant to the apportioning of guilt for whoever was responsible for those two young girls deaths. According to the report I'll list below, the road is a two lane road without a sidewalk and without shoulders...

    The BIG BANG! Theory And Other Christian Science.

    [dd]It has become glaringly apparent that most of the people who preach the evolution theory and Big Bang! cosmology do not know of the relationship between Christians and science. They seem to believe that anyone who doesn't believe in evolution is rejecting science, or, at least, not giving...

    Korea, the US, and two innocent little girls.

    [dd]Having that trial in the military court is provisionally and perceptionally equivalent to having no trial at all. The U.S. is notorious for not prosecuting military atrocities and so the belief is that they will whitewash any trial they can in order to preserve what they think of as their...

    Evolution??

    You evolutionists don't even seem to know the definition of the theory that you put so much faith in. --"Darwinian theory--Darwin's theory of evolution, which holds that all species of plants and animals developed from earlier forms by hereditary transmissions of slight variations in successive...

    Simple question about animals and humans

    Dogs also have personality. It's no coincidence that they rightly are adorned with the mantle of "man's best friend". Any animal that is derived from the coupling of a male and female of the species is going to be a product of both, the same as humans are. All naturally occurring natural...

    Earth population

    It's not likely the world will ever run out of productive farmland, unless global warming turns much of it into a desert. There are plenty of golf courses and parking lots on prime farmland. When hunger becomes acute, plenty of things that are considered essential now will suddenly seem frivolous.
