• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Kent Hovind entered an academia arena and gave a three minute (?) answer to someone who asked where God came from.

The audience cheered and clapped.
Once upon a time, I went on this hike.
It was really long and tiring. On that hike, near a mountain top, I found some sea shells.
My friends got really excited.



Did your post MEAN anything to what I wrote? Were you trying to address it? I'm not sure if you're trying to obfuscate your point so I'll just play along.

Sorry.

I was thinking of Kent Hovind's video as to where God came from.

Nevermind.

Question: Do you feel the same way about Martha's recipes as you do Kent's "recipes"?
For the record, Martha Stewart, Kent Hovind and Dinesh D'Souza can all eat a bag of rocks.

Some posters here think his answer is wrong, because he did time in prison.

Good thing he didn't say 2 plus 2 equal 4, else his "prison record" would show his statement to be a lie. :rolleyes:
That's not even close for why I have little regard for what Hovind says.

I suspect it's because he dares to disagree with your beliefs.

Martha Stewart?

No problem.

She doesn't threaten your beliefs.

Kent Hovind? Ken Ham? David Mainse? John Ankerberg?

Look out!

Now there's a Who's Who of pariahs! :rolleyes:

Yeah... that's not it at all.

It's definitely more the question of HOW Hovind does it that we find disagreeable. Since it massively amounts to just outright lies from him...

No, because he disagrees with facts. That he is a scoundrel only explains why he tries to back it up with Christian doctrine.
Martha Stewart?

No problem.

You're right. She doesn't threaten my beliefs.
Kent Hovind? Ken Ham? David Mainse? John Ankerberg?

Look out!

Neither does Kent Hovind, Ken Ham or John Ankerberg.

Ya ... no facts have ever been disagreed with before, have they? :rolleyes:

You must really have problems with Percival Lowell now!

My life reality is based on what the Earth itSelf shows us and not on any religious dogma or religious spokesperson who preaches pseudoscience as truth.
Martha Stewart?

No problem.

I know who Martha Stewart is, but that's about it. She in no way threatens my reality in life.
Kent Hovind? Ken Ham? David Mainse? John Ankerberg?

Look out!

Now there's a Who's Who of pariahs! :rolleyes:
And neither do any of these people.
