  • 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

    Name a doctrine that you used to believe in but dont anymore.

    Oneness-in reference to denying the Trinity, as taught in many apostolic Pentecostal churches. Speaking in tongues- I'm not a cessationist. I just believe that when it happens, most churches that practice it do not follow Paul's explicit instructions on the gift.

    Why do blacks still need black leaders

    People want equity, not equality. Equity takes into account that some groups (racial and ethnic minorities, women, homosexuals, the disabled..etc) have had to overcome certain circumstances that others may not have. Equality is simply giving everyone the same opportunities without any special...

    Serious Problem: Always Getting Friendzoned

    This^ Many girls my age aren't looking to settle down yet. Many of them don't know who they are, where they are going to be, or what they are going to do with their lives. Relationships are hard and time consuming and sometimes require you to sacrifice your own dreams and goals in order to be...

    What's your college major?

    I start graduate school in a month. Getting my MS in forensic anthropology and bioarchaeology. I have two undergraduate degrees, one in biological anthropology and the other in Spanish (random, I know. haha)

    Choosing a Grad School

    I'd talk with your undergraduate advisor, if you have one. They will know the ins and outs of applying to grad school (since they've clearly done it themselves) and they will know what schools are good for certain specializations, and likely what your chances are for getting in.

    Help with Biblical Archaeology graduate programs?

    I agree with iluvatar5150. Go for the best program you can find, regardless if it's at a Christian school or not. I actually just applied to the bioarchaeology master's program at University of Indianapolis. It's small private school, but they have a huge emphasis on geoarchaeology and...

    Denominations

    I don't think there is any one denomination that will suit your needs. You may just need to pray to come a across a good body of believers. I attended an apostolic Pentecostal church for the first three years of college. The pastor was a forensic chemist, and was actually the person who...

    Death Before the Fall

    I was responding to someone else about the premise being presented in this thread. Presenting the premise doesn't mean claiming it as truth. Perhaps I should have worded it differently. I'd like it if you responded my comment on your first post rather than my clarification of the topic to...

    Death Before the Fall

    Predators existed, and therefore killed and ate other animals.

    Death Before the Fall

    I think you're missing the point. Herbivores and carnivores are structurally different. It's not that they like to eat different things, it's that their bodies are designed to eat different things. It would be like your body forming extra receptors for caffeine to bind to in order to make your...

    Books on the theological case for theistic evolution

    Home | BioLogos has some good resources for both the science and the theology of TE.

    Death Before the Fall

    I've been pondering this for a few months now, and I have spoken with some of my more well-read YEC friends and haven't found any answers that satisfy me yet. My thought process goes something like this: 1. If God created every animal and plant as a product of special creation, then they were...

    Totally driven into the ground by Evolutionists, but faith remains

    I wasn't addressing increased complexity (although, I've yet to have someone define "increased complexity" to me) or speciation. I was addressing your assertion that beneficial mutations do not occur/do not occur often. They do occur, they do advance a species, and they do add new genetic...

    Totally driven into the ground by Evolutionists, but faith remains

    Have you ever had to take antibiotics? If so, the doctor probably told you to make sure to finish the treatment, no matter if you were feeling well or not. This is because if you do not kill off all of the bacteria, they often produce mutations that allow them to be immune to that antibiotic...
