  • 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

    DST much too early...

    One other problem about DST this year is that patches have to be applied to computers not just in the US, but also to computers around the world, including those countries which do not use DST. It just means more work (or trouble) for IT administrators.

    Chaos Theory & Intelligent Design

    The problem is that chaos theory can only be applied to deterministic systems, which quantum systems are not.

    Why Are There No Christian Suicide Bombers?

    Does the OP include suicide bombers who happen to be christians in the discussion, or is it restricted to suicide bombers who attack at least partly due to religious conviction, for political reasons?

    Chimps Observed Making Their Own Weapons

    I suppose they can also be Prometheus to these chimps as well, by teaching them to use fire.

    Heliocentricity Is The Great Apostasy

    Between the arctic circle and south of the antarctic circle, every day the sun appears from the eastern horizon in the morning and disappears into the eastern horizon in the evening. This is due to the earth's rotation about it's axis, and independent of the earth's orbit around the sun...

    The State of Orthodoxy in Greece

    Just a bit of background info about language issues: In 1901, there were riots in Athens over the "translation" of the New Testament to Demotic Greek. Subsequently, 8 people were killed, and the Archbishop was forced to resign, and the whole cabinet stepped down.

    Noah's Ark depicted in ancient Chinese pictograph

    The word "口" means mouth,not person. Why do they shoehorn so as to mean person in some context?

    If anyone is thinking of getting it, perhaps it is better to wait for the service packs first.

    Women in the Military?

    I would have thought that women's role in the Soviet Union during World War II would have shown that they are just as capable as men in combat, whereby several are famous for being fighter aces, sharpshhoters, and tank commanders. A good number of them received the Hero of the Soviet Union, the...

    Convolution (the alternative to evolution)

    I think it would depend on the context in which convolution is applied. In image processing, t would be the width or height of a convolution mask.
