  • 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.

Another look at the moon landing.

Sure but the search for knowledge will continue. Think of it this way, God created everything and gave man the ability to reason which gives man the curiosity to discover knowledge. The exploration of space will continue even beyond my life and yours.
Not good. Not subject to Jesus nor to God's Word nor His Instructions.

In fact, sounds humanistic and opposed to God. (very very common)

I’m a Christian. I am not a humanist nor opposed to God. I think your comments are a bit too much.

No worries. Think about or ask our Father in Heaven for wisdom about what is part of His Kingdom and what is of the flesh, profitable for nothing (as Jesus says).

Your comments are a bit judgmental and out of line. As I stated I am a Christian.

Christians believe iron sharpens iron and the wise man loves criticism. That does not mean any particular Christian or group or way of thinking is correct, does it ?
We are instructed to accept God's Judgment (appraisal, determination, view) as correct and to agree with Him.

Perspective from God's Word is best. Agree or disagree, God's Way is Best for each and all
> "The statement "what is of the flesh is flesh and profitable for nothing" reflects the teaching found in John 6, where Jesus declares, "It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh profits nothing". This means that human nature, in its natural, sinful state, cannot achieve spiritual life or eternal salvation on its own. The "flesh" refers to human power, self-effort, and physical existence, which are incapable of generating spiritual life. Jesus emphasizes that His words are not to be understood in a literal, physical sense, such as eating His literal flesh, but rather as spiritual truths that bring life when received by faith. The flesh, in this context, symbolizes human weakness and corruption, which cannot benefit the soul in its quest for eternal life."

There is absolutely no evidence of a mass (in the millions) deception. There is no testimony under oath that NASA faked the lunar landings. The proof though is absolute that they indeed landed in the moon. The telemetry signal from the Apollo missions was not encrypted so thousands of scientists and amateurs alike were tracking the mission Including the Russians. We are talking about a global network of independent observers. All of these track a signal coming from the moon not a signal coming from earth. This would have been easy to determine.

Secondly, crossing the Van Allen Belt takes 53 minutes not 6 hours. The Apollo astronauts crossed it at ballistic speeds, with shielding, and at the weaker, upper portion. All crewed missions from Apollo 8 to Apollo 17 crossed the Van Allen belt.
There is plenty of third party evidence for the Apollo missions to the moon.


There is also a wealth of evidence from amateur astronomers who tracked the missions with their telescopes from all over the globe.

Theologians interpret the Bible through various methods, including historical-grammatical, canonical, and theological approaches. They examine the text's historical and cultural context, consider how different parts of the Bible relate to each other, and focus on the theological meaning, aiming to understand God's message and its implications for faith and life.
Where did you quote that from? It definitely wasn't your own words.

As evidenced by this thread and others, the flat earthers are not wise men (or women)

Strong in him the times vary on different sites anywhere from 30 minutes, a hour, two hours anywhere up to 3 hours . But given given the combined distance of the inner and outer belts of the Van Ellen’s Belt of some 70 thousand kilometres or 42,500 miles. The travel time would be closer to your article’s statement
It's not my article; I'm neither a journalist, nor a scientist.
If you believe it's wrong and have scientific evidence to back up your assertion, by all means write to the BBC and tell them their facts are wrong.
could go as low as a hour as is stated in other publications of them choosing a shorter route of their alleged journey through the Van Ellen’s belt.
There's nothing alleged about it. If they say that they passed through the Van Allen belts, then they did.
It's much the same as if someone said they drove through London to get to their destination and someone else said, "you can't have done, London's too full of traffic, tourists and demonstrations."
Why would someone say they did something when they didn't.
As to the scientists I’m sure they don’t get their degrees out of cornflakes packets .
It's a saying - it means they didn't just get given their qualifications, they worked hard for them.
So they know what they are talking about.
As to believing everything a Christian claims or anyone for that matter. The answer is No.
If you're talking about Charles Duke, he didn't just claim it one time. He gives talks about his walk on the moon, and says that his walk with Jesus is far more important. He does not promote himself as being great for having gone to the moon; he promotes Jesus.
There are other astronauts who walked on the moon and later became Christians. No doubt they would say the same thing.

What's not good about it?
You don't believe that God created everything? John 1:3, Colossians 1:16.
You don't believe that mankind was made by God and in his image? Genesis 1:26-27.
You don't believe that God gives us gifts? I Corinthians 12:6-8, 28; Ephesians 4:11.
You think humans can think, or do, things that God is not aware of? Then God would not be God; all knowing and all powerful.

Here you are, using software developed by men on computers developed by men on an international network developed by men using a combination of undersea cables built by men, microwave transmission towers built by men and orbiting satellites designed and launched by men, posting about how ungodly they all are.

There is a word for this.

The raqia is the visible sky over the earth.

And God called the "raqia" Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.

Absolutely! And for all you other guys who don't believe it is there, it's called the firmament, Firm-ament.

I can't remember, what with my memory problem & all.
I recommend you make certain to link or otherwise reference the source when you post someone else's words. It's a very bad look otherwise.

There's one thing wrong with your post, there are no satellites orbiting space, satellites are used via glorified balloons.
