• 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.

Most lighter shades - yes. But dark brown and black - no.
Everything is bathed in light. All colors are not distinguished in the light. Could not say what color anything about them is because of the light.

Since everyone here believes that Angels are mystical magical beings, with super natural powers that can melt your brains out; there is nothing more to say.

Good stance to take. :clap:

I especially liked the part about "melting your brains out" :D but that sounds more like the one in the black robe to the foot having a black hood over a dark empty space where there would normally have been a face. :no smiley: :not smiling:

Not everyone... There is nothing mystical or magical about them. Yes, they have different attributes that we humans do not, but none of them will melt your brains without God's permission.

Can you at least see some truth in what may be cultural exaggeration of the Grim Reaper?

Angels radiate white light, while reapers absorb all light (black.) One has so much energy that it can radiate excess, while the other is a (possibly very cold) blackbody - energy deficient.

It also has a nod as to why people feel chills, or get cold when they experience evil paranormal activity. Seems to me you would need a lot of energy to manifest here if you don't already have energy "on tap" from God, so to speak.

What the heck, I thought we were friends?

Am I that empty looking?

Scared to use my name?:shutup:

Yes, both times the room was bone chillingly cold. The second time was many years later on the morning after my daughter went home. That one however is not a reaper but the destroyer and be careful what you say. Wilt thou not fear the power? He beareth not the sword in vain I assure you. I need not say any more of it because I would only be sounding out my own trumpet but I can also assure you, without naming names or pointing fingers, that much of what is here in this thread is either fantasy or strong delusion and either way that is not a good thing.

Years this was probably a sarcastic post, but I assure you some of us have been assaulted by what many would call fantasy. Others have experienced less antagonistic things. It is real, even though it may be strong delusion (i.e. a Satan coming as an angel of light.) That is where discernment comes in. Discernment =/= dismissal.

I think that in order for something to possess energy, it needs to have mass.

A magnetic and electric field has energy densities stored within the fields, but the photons carrying the electromagnetic field don't have mass according to the standard model.

But then they do have, upon occasion, mass like characteristics, as in Compton scattering.

Well, if that doesn't scientifically justify the existence of grimm reapers and spirits, I don't know what will. ;)

Yeah, and don't forget spin-spin resonance, Brownian movement, Pauli, Planck, and Neils Bohr too.

I need a drink and a good dimer.:cool: Is Alice 10 feet tall?

Yep, back in the mid 50s, after Q-Phys classes, we used to cross the campus from the Physics Dept. and go to the Theology Dept. But the Theology Dept. was always closed, in more ways than one. They always differentiated but they would never integrate, so they had no integr a ty.

Ooops.
