  • 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.

    My great great granfather was not a monkey!!!!!

    John, you do realise that studies of Neaderthal mitochondrial DNA have shown that they did not breed with homo-sapiens and are not part of our evolutionary history. As others have pointed out they were an evolutionary dead end, they're extinct. Look: March 28— DNA from the bones of a...

    Six lines of evidence, one common conclusion - evolution ain't going away

    Actually Venus has no magnetic field and has a much more dense atmosphere than the earth does. Nobody's quite sure why Mars lost it's atmosphere but it would probably be a combination of it's low gravity and lack of magnetic shielding. Also I'm not entirely sure how long it would take for an...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    It's quite simple to go back through this thread and show me where I made this statement. I did, because I didn't remember making said statement and didn't find it. Don't try to belittle me over a comment I never even made. I provided two sources, a scientific news item (which was based on...

    For yossarian, what do you think you are doing?

    To be honest if anyone should be "ashamed" over their arrogent, agressive, patronising, hypocritical and baseless posts it's you Mark. Especially looking at the comment above, which is an arrogent lie through and through to make yourself look good. Absolutely disgusting.

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    When did I mention a 10 million nucleotide divergance? :scratch: So you're going to refuse to answer a glaring and titanic hole in your position. Good for you. Unfortunately the Gorilla genome has yet to be sequenced Mark, however it is clear from what data we have, and most especially...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    ScienceWeek: "The visible similarities between gorillas and chimpanzees --for example, knuckle walking, abundant body hair and thin tooth enamel -- gave a long-standing, yet misleading, impression that these apes were sister taxa, and that humans were the exceptional outgroup in this hominoid...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    Not from the YEC side, that's for sure! :D But seriously, what do you mean by this statement?

    Why are you a Creationist?

    I see you've debated Mark before, you know his old hand waving techniques well: Quick, subject change! I'd like to know how transitional fossils and ERV's make more sense in light of creationism too, if you don't mind Mark. Oh and add isotopic dating to that list as well. And geology, and...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    So Chimps/Gorillas evolved from a common ancestor in 2,500 years while it's impossible that the even more genetically similar Humans and Chimps evolved from a common ancestor in 10 million because that's too short a time-scale? See the contradiction in your views? A little OT I know but I have...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    What does any of that have to do with the question? It was fairly simple. I'm not talking about evolution at all with the first question. Simply asking you if mutation rates are enough to explain the fact that individuals differ, on average, by 3 million base pairs from each other if we all...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    Let me try a different approach. Would an increase in genetic diversity of around 3 million base differences between unlrelated individuals be achievable in 2,500 years from one family Mark? How many changes would be needed to be fixed within 2500 years after the flood to make the multitude of...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    Did you know that for Heliocentric Theory to be true it would require the earth to move at a speed of 107,300 km/h around the sun!? Clearly this is impossible, because I say so. This is something that Heliocentrists consistantly fail to realise, and a gaping hole in the theory. Galelio and...

    Chimpanzee genome completly sequenced

    Hey Mark! Congrats on becoming a moderator man :wave: I see we're still going through this merry-go-round nearly a year later, eh? You're a YEC, right? Which means you believe the earth is 6,000 years old (or there abouts) and that the entire human species is descended from two individuals...

    Pete's Quite Thread post

    Well it's good that Mark's admitted, as much as his arrogence allows, that he's talking garbage about humans not speciating.

    New Harris poll - nearly 2/3 U.S. agree God created humans

    I said: "when creation "science" produces some actual science we include it in science class. When it disproves aspects of the ToE and Old Earth models we change them. But until it manages to do these things it gets out of the science class, where it certainly at present does not belong." Not...
