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.

Neat...
Too bad that the word universe comes from compleatly different "parent" words.
And just what does this have to do with science, creation or evolution anyway?

Yeah, that's incorrect.
The "verse" in universe comes from the past tense of the Latin verb vertere (versum), which means "to turn".
Hence, universe means "to turn into one".

He used the Latin prefix, and then just took "verse" and looked it up in a dictionary. Anyone else wondering how you make a mistake like that?

Isn't this Hovind nonsense as well? There is someone around here with a sig line quoting Hovind saying the same thing as the OP (then follows the quote with the correction).

I agree, that movie sucked. Same with almost every movie that has came out that I have seen.Zadok001 said:
That's why Christian movies/tv got my VOTE, they strengthen your Faith.
THE PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE HAS MY VOTE.
I used to be an Atheist but I just didn't have enough Faith to stick with it.
