  • 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

    Hold on a second.  You asked for ANY examples from the OLD TESTAMENT.  That's what I gave you.  You didn't ask for several hundred, or a number of references using the word in one way that would exceed the number used in another way.  The fact that yom denotes a...

    Why the change in criteria?  Your original question was for Old Testament references, of which all of the given verses are.  How does their not being in Genesis exclude them from legitimate consideration as lexical examples of the Hebrew language? You also didn't address Gen...

    6 Day Creation Is A Lie Because.....

    I am assuming that the basis for this argument is Romans 5:12: "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin, and so death passed upon all men, for all have sinned."  Note, however, that Paul said that death passed upon all men.  He says nothing about animals...

    Evolutionists win by default....

    Sorry.  Here's a more direct link.  www.glenn.morton.btinternet.co.uk/synop.htm Lucaspa, I don't think you fully understood my point.  From a scientific point of view, I agree with almost everything I have read in your postings.  What I am simply saying is that a...

    Evolutionists win by default....

    I am a Christian as well, and I do take Genesis literally and historically.  I also subscribe to the scientific view that the earth is 4.5 billion years old and that the evidence for universal common ancestry is overwhelming. "WHAT?!?!?" (you may be thinking).  "Doesn't a literal...

    6 Day Creation Is A Lie Because.....

    In my view, the most compelling scientific evidence for universal common ancestry is found in DNA sequence homologies: nonfunctional pseudogenes (mentioned earlier in this thread) and endogenous retroviruses.  A detailed discussion of the latter can be found on the following...

    Kent Hovind videos?Heard of Them?

    I think the general concensus on this thread is that Hovind's "science" is flawed at best.  However, unless someone on this forum knows him personally, I think we should avoid characterising the heart and intentions of someone we've never met.  Only God knows the heart.  As...

    To My Brethren...evolution

    If you're going to copy and paste, please be sure of content beforehand As I said twice before, I am simply quoting a source, making no claims as to the veracity of that source.  In fact, I even went so far as to say that I had a hard time accepting that conclusion.&nbsp...

    To My Brethren...evolution

    It's very interesting how you came to the position you currently hold on this issue.  My journey was sort of a "mirror image." I was saved at the age of seven.  The church I was raised in took a very hostile view of evolution, and I grew up to be a very staunch 6-day...

    To My Brethren...evolution

    Again, I agree with you on the fact that the light source created on Day 1 may have been what God used to mark the "days" until the sun was created.  Using this same logic, however, negates the argument used by many creationists that the plants created on Day 3 could not have survived...

    To My Brethren...evolution

    I am with you 100% on your first statement.  God created the world somehow, and that somehow is the absolute truth. But God didn't say "days."  He said "yom."  There is no exact English equivalent for the word "yom," so the King James translators (and others after them) used...

    Races?

    I think the answer to this question is fairly straightforward.  Evolutionists and creationists alike believe that all humans have descended from a common ancestor (according to Genesis, that ancestor was Adam).  The various races on earth today are a result of genetic variation...

    All in a day's work

    Andrew, Going back to the the very first statement you made in this thread: Please open your Bible and read: Gen 2:4, Gen 4:3, Josh 24:7, Hosea 6:2. All these verses use the word yom. When you use the phrase "without exception," you'd better first make sure there are no...

    Do you trust GOd's word?

    Micaiah, I would like to do that for you, but I really don't believe I could do justice to his exigesis by simply summarizing his "arguments" in this forum.  Neither do I have the time to type out sixteen pages of text for your convenience.  If you are truly interested in what...
