• 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.

You are aware that there is a difference between not being falsified and not being falsifiable, right?

Umm, no? They say "we don't know but based on what we do know this and this might be how it works", and then see if "this and this" actually fits the evidence.

(And I see you've failed to tell us which "this and this" AV was referring to.)

Examples, please?

Assuming he really means that - which, given his near total ignorance of literally everything outside the King James bible, is unfortunately quite plausible - he is wrong as wrong can be. Scientists do not simply "make something up", they are expected to support their claims with evidence. I don't know where you get the part about expecting people to "destroy" anything from - maybe you are referring to peer review?
