  • 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

    Noah's Ark

    Does that mean you are now suggesting the flood was not global? If so, I don't understand the need for tectonic forces that would generate enough energy to melt the earth.

    Noah's Ark

    Once again, what was previously described with the ocean floor rising as much would be required withing the time span of the flood, the amount of energy needed to do that would put the Earth in a molten state which would still be in existence today and thousands of years to come.

    Noah's Ark

    Two problems there. (1) Such up-welling would leave physical evidence of both the up-welling and subsidence that would have to occur. There is no such geologic evidence. (2) Such a process over such a short time would make the earth completely molten and it would still be in that state today.

    Noah's Ark

    The breech of the Bosporus Straight increasing the size of the Black Sea and encroaching the Mountains of Ararat is supported by science.

    Noah's Ark

    I can understand a regional flood which does have supporting evidence, but global, all the physical evidence is just the opposite.

    Noah's Ark

    There is an enormous difference between the composition and formation of flood debris/layers, and that of the Grand Canyon. There is also a terrestrial layer with fossilized foot prints in between marine layers. Did the flood completely recede then flood again?

    Noah's Ark

    I agree that Mr Nye didn't express that the best way, but the point he was making is that if the fossils in the Grand Canyon were deposited by the flood is that we would not find them distributed in layers with no species out of order. In other words, if the Grand Canyon is a result of the...

    I agree, however, Creation Science and Ken Ham says it does.

    Every 1500 years new warming

    Thank you for your reply but I think you have a misunderstanding of what proxies are. Climate, and/or, temperature proxies are methods for determining climate conditions and temperatures prior to instrument records. Proxy sources include tree rings, boreholes, ice cores, sub-fossil pollen...

    Lack of CC disasters

    Thank you for your concern, however; in my opinion, the link provided and content of the post seems to imply a lack of knowledge and understanding as to how NASA Global Average Temperatures (GAT) are obtained and what they represent. Furthermore, as a retired scientist (Chemist & Process...

    Every 1500 years new warming

    Because it is not a natural cycle. The Medieval warm period is a regional temp. proxy, not global temperatures. We know it is due to increased CO2 from fossil fuels. Scientists have known the effects of CO2 in the atmosphere for 150 (Fourier) years. Global Warming due to increased CO2 and...

    "The Congressional Committee on Science, Space & Technology"

    That is a common misunderstanding about science and how it actually works. Science has nothing to do with opinion. Science is based on facts. Facts that are testable and repeatedly verifiable through observation. Quite the contrary, I suggest sourcing the link in the OP which provides the...

    DELINGPOLE: ‘Global Warming’ Is a Myth, Say 58 Scientific Papers in 2017

    No, the search term(s) was not AGW, it was "global climate change' or 'global warming". Most climate science is not about AGW. Both of those phrases apply to paleoclimatology and other areas of climatology as well. Please review my previous post, I explained it quite accurately. Perhaps...
