  • 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.

God did not create from nothing

Ask him if he thinks Israel has a God-given right to their Promised Land.

It amazes me that a person can square roots, syncopate the onomatopoeia, and subtend the minuend; but when it comes to the narrative about the Flood, they can't put two and two together and tell it was global.

I mean, if the Flood was just local, why didn't Noah and his family just walk away? why did birds board the Ark? why were they aboard the Ark for over a year? and other such questions.

It seems that, if it can't be reduced to a formula, graph, or chart, it can't be understood.

Some people like to do math, but they hate story problems.

You have not yet pointed towards any physical signs of said Flood.

Another question I have is how did your Global Flood waters act any different than any other mega-flood waters?

I think you are looking for signs that mountains and deserts were once covered in water.

Explain why The King James version of the Bible is correct while the Roman Catholic versions are wrong.

That would be a violation of rules and regulations here, would it not?

For someone who has the plastered the front cover of the King James Bible as an advertisement of one's denomination, that would be a violation.
I was asking a straightforward question if you actually have a reason instead of blind faith, and your refusal to answer confirms the obvious.

So what makes your blind faith any better or worse than anyone else's version of Christianity, when all parties can state science "can take a hike" because it doesn't conform to their version of faith.
The harsh reality is the 'absence of evidence is not evidence of absence' is inapplicable because science provides overwhelming evidence there was no great flood let alone in 2348 BC or a six day creation event some 6000 years ago.

Just because the Bible says so according to one's interpretation or version of faith does not make Genesis right unlike other books in the OT which have been attested to by archeological evidence.

I don't know how many times you plan to say that, but it does not make it so. There is no evidence for what you claim.

What’s your opinion on Creation occurring 6000 years ago and took 6 days to complete? Is that terrible and stupid too? Does that defy scientific logic too?

It defies scientific logic, yes, but it's not terrible and stupid. Only your answers to my questions were terrible and stupid.

Of which you can't provide any evidence that it did, or how it did. You've made claims with zero evidence behind them.

Acutally I was looking for a response from you.

I think that is the evidence you want? If so let me know.

I suppose you are looking for evidence that all mountains and all deserts were covered with water in the past also?
