  • 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

    The Decode-the-jargon Game

    Yep, that's right! The next one, from Noddingdog's post above, is: An implement utilised to obtain certain quantities of information from specific sources using, to name one technique, the flow of vast quantities of electrons.

    The Decode-the-jargon Game

    Okay, here's a hint: The measurement is done on something that lies still. What counts is not the speed of the thing on the whole, but the speed of the atoms. Remember, the atoms are vibrating.

    I'm afraid that's wrong. Try again. :)

    Count to 1000 for 10,000 blessings (read rules 1st!)

    Now that was funny! :D

    The Decode-the-jargon Game

    An ocean. An instrument using a scale which is linearly dependent on the square of the average speed of the atoms in the substance on which the measurement was done.

    My theory...Mr PotatoHead was based on a real person

    Did you even read the post, Follower of Christ? LewisWildermuth is talking about the method of science, and how it relates to the OP of this thread. He makes absolutely no mention of evolution.

    America the Liberator

    Okay. Please forget about my earlier comments. And the article and your post have a very good point. Things will be far uglier if we simply leave Hussein alone.

    America the Liberator

    That was the impression I got from the article in the original post - that this war was about liberating Iraq. I guess not. Since you most likely know more about it than I do, would you mind telling me what the reason is? Because I'm having some trouble figuring it out.

    Think Outside of the Box

    That's brilliant! :D I wish I could come up with answers like that...

    America the Liberator

    I can't help but wonder, if this war is all about liberating the people of Iraq, then why did the Bush administration confuse the issue by bringing up the war on terrorism? Ah well. Hopefully the situation will become better for the people of Iraq. That, at least, is a good thing.

    A Little Known Fact

    Well, they didn't create a code, they simply spoke their own language, which is known by very few people who are not Navajos themselves. However, the language has no military expressions. But as the Navajos don't have a written language, they are accustomed to learning things by heart. All...

    Why this war must be stopped!

    Should we rather leave them under the government of Saddam Hussein, a man who already has killed thousands of innocent people? And how exactly did you arrive at the "thousands" figure? Last I checked, even Iraqi TV only estimated "hundreds" and they would be expected to exaggerate.

    Why this war must be stopped!

    I think so. In Internet Explorer, they show up with some fancy form of shadows or outline. Unfortunately, IE is the only browser supporting this (I suspect it isn't even part of the HTML standard), so on all other browsers, some usernames will be hard to read.

    Debate....

    Something like half of this forum is devoted to just that debate. I'd recommend browsing through some of the older threads to get an idea of what each side is claiming, what their arguments are, etc.

    Best argument agenst Creationism?

    Almost correct. Creation and evolution do not contradict. Creationism, on the other hand, is a claim, based on a literal reading of the bible, that God created all species more or less in their current form. This does contradict evolution.
