• 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.

Wrong. The facts of science are not fluid. Sometimes the interpretation of them can change.

And the fact that science changes is its strength. Science gets more and more accurate as time goes on. I don't think you can find a case where science got less accurate.

Now the Bible has changed over time to. And in the one change of the Bible that I am aware of it became obviously less accurate. Claiming that something does not change is not necessarily a strong point.

Dad has "UNDEFEATED" as his user title, prompting some to make "I DEFEATED DAD" as their user title or signature.

A sign of intelligence is knowing when you've been defeated. A sign of being a man is admitting it when it's happened.

Meh ... someone gets a Pyrrhic victory against him every once in awhile.

He's still "undefeated," as far as I'm concerned.

I did other research on Tyre too and it turns out that it was defeated on a regular basis before the attack of Nebuchadnezzar. Since that sort of attack was the norm for Tyre that meant the prophecy could not legitimately be extended past Nebby. Otherwise I can make prophesies of the Biblical sort by simply claiming that you will see a red car. The fact that when you go outside and see a red car does not make me a prophet. The fact that 200 years later another man came along and defeated Tyre is a "you will see a red car prophesy".
