  • 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.

A greater expression of the remainder of Creation, than an exertion of Evolution?

Theo-Evo complaints garble the bible. For example the doctrine of original sin is left in the dark.

No, nothing in evolutionary theory rules out original sin, which is not a natural phenomenon, but a spiritual one.

When those who push evolutionism ...populations evolve...original sin is ruled out.

ev·o·lu·tion-ism
/ˌevəˈlo͞oSH(ə)n/izm

noun
noun: evolutionism;


  1. 1.
    the stories creationists tell about evolutionary theory, to avoid discussing the real theory.
    "evolutionism is calling God a liar"
  2. 2.
    the numerous misconceptions creationists have about evolution
    "evolutionism is about the origin of life"
    synonyms: straw man, diversion, misconception
So far, you're the only one pushing evolutionism here, so you're right. But for a Christian, nothing in evolutionary theory rules out original sin.
