  • 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

    magnetic lines of force

    No, they are more representative of magnetic field lines. Magnetic fields (i.e. the ones associated with ferromagnetism) themselves are usually not waves so there isn't really an interference pattern between the magnetic fields created by the north and south pole but more like a superposition of...

    "M" Theory proof of God??

    Maybe M-Theory is just the really really unlucky =(. LHC should at least give us a tiny hint of whether or not it is true (or at least that what all those physics articles I read seem to state). Oh well, in any case I haven't invested much time into the theory for that reason, ones it becomes...

    The Space/time fabric

    You can make time go slower by running albeit a very small amount (on the order of nanoseconds I believe).

    Is it a black hole?

    Something is a black hole if its mass is contained inside its schwarzchild radius...basically if it is denser than a certain number. No a particle in a magnetic field does not create a black hole.

    "M" Theory proof of God??

    I know theological arguments can get pretty silly but damn.... Actually, one of the hypothesis postulated by M-theory is an ekpyrotic description of the big bang... one where the universe has no beginning. This is somewhat incompatible with Christian beliefs. LHC 2008 They aren't next to...

    Creation "Science" is Anti-God

    This, ladies and gentlemen, is not science.

    Of what scientific use is ID?

    I'm not doing the work for you: if you have valid science to present, then present it. Edit - I guess I was wrong. There is some empirical confirmation of speed of gravity: http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn3232

    Big Daddy :)

    I kept going back and forth between "parody" and "real thing". It's scary how difficult it is to tell them apart.

    Of what scientific use is ID?

    From the site: (1) Coldfusion: if you can get this to work you will be filthy rich. You have no idea what a great boon to society it would be if it were achievable. Unfortunately, the experiments haven't been replicated. (2) Psychokinesis: pseudoscience. (3) "Darwinism: The Forbidden...

    Of what scientific use is ID?

    If it does it has the potential to violate causality. Theory predicts it doesn't. We already know General Relativity and Quantum Mechancs are incompatible and incomplete, you're no revolutionary there. Furthermore, it is for reasons a lot deeper than questions such as "does gravity travel at...

    Evolution & the soul An invitation to comment

    Having met various psychology professors and discussed various things in relation to this, I would have to agree. There is no scientific research being conducted in relation to any sort of "souls"

    17 evidences against evilution™

    Please educate us, oh enlightened one. How do I differentiate between code typed out by a programmer, and code generated by a genetic algorithm.

    First option. Rule #1 of fundamentalist right wing crowd: blame someone else.
