  • 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

Wow! A place that was mentioned in the Bible, and was known by the Romans, the Greeks, the Persians and almost all of the other people in the Middle East existed. Wowee!

Still not evidence that the Bible is true though.

Jericho Found!!


From what we've seen of the responses you've gotten so far, the saying holds true: "Where there's a light, there's bugs". Evidence of biblical truth will always attract those who want to cast doubt upon it.

Umm----excavations have been going on in Jericho since around 1907-1909---not exactly news.
Not news to those familiar with the subject. Not everyone is and those who are not familiar sometimes have a very strong, mindless inclination to call such biblical places made up stories or myths. I come across them all the time on the Internet.

Ironically, there's a great many of them here on this site. But that's evidence that we need to beware of wolves in sheep's clothing that Jesus warned us about in Matt 7:15.

What is he doing that you're questioning?

I want to hear his reason for posting these videos blind, without giving a single comment on their content outside of a title, for ignoring to hear out anyone that says something that he does not agree with about the video's content. What is his reason for doing this? That's what I want to know.

Well, I for one wasn't aware that Jericho had been found, so I found it interesting. I'm not really an archeology buff so I don't keep up on such things but still find them interesting.

I would say that he probably isn't responding to much of what people are saying in response to his video is because most of the responses have been mocking and sarcasm. But that's just my guess. I'll let him speak for himself.

Okay, the first bit makes sense. Archaeology is definitely one of those "you have to know it" things.

As far as I can tell there aren't any. The existence of Jericho has never been disputed here.
