• 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.

  • 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

Can only a Milky-way type of galaxy hold life at this age of the universe?

And humanity has not lived long enough to make the observations you claim. No to mention the attempt to observe from our viewpoint in the thick of the galaxy itself.

People are so duped by science fiction posing as science, it's pathetic.
Are you just going to impugn real science every couple of days? It is dull.

Your claims are unspupported by observation. If you think it is, present it. And if you want to see the things I am talking about, start with a freshman text in astronomy. Dozens are available. Try a local used book store.

Yet you know that the stars in the spiral arms are effectively circling a drain. So your “observation” is valid because while those of actual scientists can’t be.

Such wow.
The same effect is in water which we CAN observe.

Hmm.

Real science? No not at all.
But the absurd fantasy / fairy tale / yarn spinning tripe that claims to be science... yeah I impugn it with malice and disgust.

What on Earth do you know about science. From you posts on this thread, I'm going to estimate your science knowledge at zero. Care to prove me wrong?

Hmm.
Galaxies and water are not the same. This is trivially true.

I’d like to echo that most well regarded poster Hans; what qualification in the field of cosmology do you hold?
