  • 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

I’m not arguing with you, but I want to fix holes in my education. Isn’t antisemitism a form of racism? In Poland it is. I will be going to bed shortly.
It could be described as such. However, not to be pedantic about it but I think I’m right in saying that Jews don’t consider themselves as a “race”, but rather a nation or a people.

So the term “anti-Semitism” refers specifically to the hatred and discrimination of Jews, and is generally regarded as more applicable than “racism” when describing such hatred and discrimination.

And, as I’ve stated now a number of times, Christian astronauts bear witness to the gospel of Christ without any hindrance by NASA.

NASA's not going to hinder Christian astronauts as it is NASA's job to hide God., they have made the Bible into an unbelievable book for millions around the world.

1, NASA says that there is no firmament,
2, NASA's search for alien life.
3. The planets which are in reality wandering stars.
4. The moon which gives off her own light.

Key aspects of NASA's mission-driven beliefs include:
  • Scientific Exploration: Commitment to advancing knowledge in aeronautics, space exploration, and Earth science.
  • Humanity's Benefit: Focusing on research that improves life on Earth and extends human presence in space.
  • Operational Philosophy: Adhering to a "never consider failure an option" mindset, working problems with intense focus, and adapting as needed.
  • Collaboration: Valuing international partnerships (e.g., Artemis Accords) and commercial collaboration to achieve goals.
  • Innovation & Curiosity: Cultivating a culture of passion, agility, and resilience in discovery.
While NASA is a scientific, secular agency, individual personnel may hold diverse personal faith or philosophical beliefs, sometimes finding alignment between their work and their spiritual perspective.

Just as the Tower of Babel didn't succeed neither will NASA, the truth will come out one day.

Well that makes no sense whatsoever.

If it’s NASA’s job to “hide God” then why allow their astronauts give testimony to God’s gospel during NASA missions?

This is just a conspiracy theorist making stuff up

NASA's not going to hinder Christian astronauts as it is NASA's job to hide God., they have made the Bible into an unbelievable book for millions around the world.

1, NASA says that there is no firmament,
There isn’t a solid firmament. That is an error in your interpretation.
2, NASA's search for alien life.
So what? What would happen if we happen not to be alone in the universe? Does that make God any less of a God? Is it against scripture?
3. The planets which are in reality wandering stars.
That’s another problem with your interpretation. Wandering stars are in fact planets and other planetary bodies like stars.
4. The moon which gives off her own light.
Another problem with your interpretation. The second light is the light of the moon which is reflected light from the sun.
Key aspects of NASA's mission-driven beliefs include:
  • Scientific Exploration: Commitment to advancing knowledge in aeronautics, space exploration, and Earth science.
God created people with the ability to reason and think. People have always been able to see Gods attributes in His creation. Science and Christianity are not opposites but people like you who interpret the Bible incorrectly are opposed to science. Frankly that is your problem to resolve.
  • Humanity's Benefit: Focusing on research that improves life on Earth and extends human presence in space.
Excellent. Improving life on earth is the main call of the gospel of good news.
  • Operational Philosophy: Adhering to a "never consider failure an option" mindset, working problems with intense focus, and adapting as needed.
Nothing wrong or evil with that.
  • Collaboration: Valuing international partnerships (e.g., Artemis Accords) and commercial collaboration to achieve goals.
That’s nice. I wish all countries would collaborate and stop killing each other.
  • Innovation & Curiosity: Cultivating a culture of passion, agility, and resilience in discovery.
Fantastic. What is evil about that?
While NASA is a scientific, secular agency, individual personnel may hold diverse personal faith or philosophical beliefs, sometimes finding alignment between their work and their spiritual perspective.
Sure but there are a lot of Christians that work for nasa and its partners.
Just as the Tower of Babel didn't succeed neither will NASA, the truth will come out one day.
There is absolutely no connection between the Tower of Babel and nasa. That is a figment of your imagination.

Good Grief!!


This thread had a major clean up. What I see is one member made a mistake and then 4-5 pages of harassing, flaming, and disruptive behavior followed.
NOT ONE OF THOSE CRITICIZING A CERTAIN POST REPORTED THE POST SO STAFF COULD HANDLE IT.
Only Apple Pie came to the mods asking for help with her own post.

Here are the rules that were violated in this thread:
  • Promoting* or proselytizing religious beliefs or religions other than Christianity is not allowed. Members who are Satanists (followers of any form of Satanism) are not allowed at CF. For the purpose of these rules, Christianity is defined by Christian Forums' Statement of Faith which is found in the Sitewide Rules.
Astrology is considered non-Christian.
  • Do not personally attack (insult, belittle, mock, ridicule) other members or groups of members on CF, or use nicknames to do so. A list of unacceptable names can be found here.. Address only the content of the post and not the poster.
  • NO Goading. This includes images, cartoons, smileys or post ratings which are clearly meant to goad. Quoting and then editing another members post to change the original meaning, commonly referred to as "fixed it for you" (FIFY), is considered goading.
"Calling out" a member is an unsolicited comment about another member in reference to something they may have said, their personal beliefs, their signature, or their avatar (challenging the member in a negative manner)

Harassment​

  • Be considerate and do not make another member's experience on this site miserable. This includes making false accusations or persistently attacking them in the open forums.

One member cannot demand an apology from another. This is not expressly stated in the rules but it falls under harassment or flaming.


Keep it civil. Do not personally attack a member. IF they post something that concerns you, either report it to staff or remember to use grace when commenting to the member. Remember:


Colossians 4:6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

Thanks - I was going to correct this but I thought i'll leave it.

I wanted to bring that up just in case that was done just to take a little insult to you. But it very well could have been an honest mistake. But you never know when it comes to insults directed toward stationary, flat earthers.

For people who believe the science lie that new stars are being created.

John states other wise. Were made and not, are being made.

All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

This is no error.

So what? What would happen if we happen not to be alone in the universe? Does that make God any less of a God? Is it against scripture?

There will come a time when they will display a fake alien invasion & it's called 'Project Blue-beam.

That’s another problem with your interpretation. Wandering stars are in fact planets and other planetary bodies like stars.

All of the planets are stars and cannot be landed on.

Another problem with your interpretation. The second light is the light of the moon which is reflected light from the sun.

God didn't create a reflector he created two great lights.

I agree.

Sorry about that. It was an accident.

And I love apple pie, so I wouldn't use it to insult.

It could be described as such. However, not to be pedantic about it but I think I’m right in saying that Jews don’t consider themselves as a “race”, but rather a nation or a people.

So the term “anti-Semitism” refers specifically to the hatred and discrimination of Jews, and is generally regarded as more applicable than “racism” when describing such hatred and discrimination.
Actually, the term Semitic originally referred to a group of languages including Hebrew, Arabic, Aramaic, and Amharic among others, and was coined in the 18th century.

It is true that everything that existed at the time John wrote his Gospel, had already been created, past tense, by God, but that does not exclude things continuing to be created. God has continued to create since John's Gospel was written, otherwise you and I wouldn't exist.

I don't think a Mod, who was warning about people insulting others, would themselves insult someone.

and there is no new thing under the sun. Ecclesiastes 1:9
Which is proved by these pointless, FE threads that keep appearing - all with the same arguments.

A good time to leave, I think.
