• 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.

Day-age theory... God not bound to "time" the way we think of it, but possibly in "events"...

If your god is 'outside' of time, as you folk persist in bleating, then he performs no action in this universe, because action requires time.....even the 'action' of simply existing....!

It is a ridiculous claim to make.......

God created time.
That's something an extra dimension guy should be able to understand.

What nonsense.

You are floundering and reaching for any convenient excuse.

'Time' is not an entity that can be created, nor destroyed. It's simply a metric. It's a means of measuring the succession of action, nothing more. As long as action persists, as long as existence persists, we use the concept of time as a ruler, as a measuring tape.

Run along with your desperate notions.....

I'll assume your going to forfeit this question considering how you can't adequately answer it.. that's OK...You can't win them all.

Dude, you do know if there is absolutely nothing there is also absolutely no time. Got it?

You have been solidly beaten when I told you can't self create stuff from nothing...or if your stuff existed from eternity past time wouldn't get to now..or over eternity past the stuff would have lost all of it's energy.

There is a need for a God.

Exactly....! Thank goodness, something seems to have penetrated the curtain of ignorance.....

If your god exists "outside of time", then, as you say, he cannot exist....!

There's hope left for you yet.
