  • 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.

what does this have to do with the issue of you answering what God was doing in your fable of creation by speck!? Should we take it that you think He possessed the hot soup speck and made it pop out all that is the universe today or something?? Be clear...no matter how ridiculous your position may be.
What do you know about the metaphysics of causality? God is the Formal and the Final cause. The Material and Efficient causes He leaves to science to find out about.
So the odd appearance in our affairs eh?
You think miracles are odd? That's s strange position for a Christian.
Ha. Not a real personal Friend and God. Sounds more like a pipe dream.
I doubt you know very much about personal friendship, but that's OK--Jesus loves you anyway.

So the one that raised from the dead was not the One that created the world and all things as John says?
What I was taught is that God the Father created the universe through God the Son. What you're talking about is called Modal Monarchianism which has been an heresy since the second century.

Let me guess, you can't quite say what!!!!!? Like your post clearly shows. I double dare you...
You jumped all over the authors of that paper for assuming the Principle of Uniformity as if they must be taking it on faith rather than relying, as they should, on the work of other scientists whose specific business it is.

So that is your best attempt at addressing how we know what the laws were when the meteors crashed, or rock melted on Mercury, or etc. OK. Very good try, don't be discouraged.
Of course not. This thread is not about addressing anything. It's about making things up.

What did Peter know? Why toss out meaningless terms.
God is the Formal and the Final cause. The Material and Efficient causes He leaves to science to find out about.

What obfuscating baloney. We do not look for 'miracles' for some invented baseless fable especially when it opposes Scripture.

That's s strange position for a Christian.I doubt you know very much about personal friendship, but that's OK--Jesus loves you anyway.
He called us friends. Those who know Him know He tells the truth.
What I was taught is that God the Father created the universe through God the Son. What you're talking about is called Modal Monarchianism which has been an heresy since the second century.
More idiotic terms. I am talking about belief versus unbelief. Trust in God over self and man.

You jumped all over the authors of that paper for assuming the Principle of Uniformity as if they must be taking it on faith rather than relying, as they should, on the work of other scientists whose specific business it is.
If you or they want to show that work, feel free. If you had a clue what you were talking about you would know they can't, nor you.

We don't, but you base the entire HI Theory on it.

Agreed

There are some folks here who are not afraid to say that up front.

If you or they want to show that work, feel free. If you had a clue what you were talking about you would know they can't, nor you.
Actually, we all have a clue about what you're talking about. If you had a clue about what you were talking about you would know it's clueless.

And we see yours.
In this thread, my trip is discussing the basis for modelling the past regarding Mercury, and crater density, and rock melt temp etc etc. Looking at science articles. Not like anyone can dispute that they claim what they claim for the reasons they claim it. Then we have the spammers and time wasters who are sore losers and cannot grasp the issues.

"The team melted the synthetic rocks in a furnace to simulate the point in time when the deposits were lava, and not yet solidified as rock. Then, the researchers dialed the temperature and pressure of the furnace up and down to effectively turn back the clock, simulating the lava's eruption from deep within the planet to the surface, in reverse...

..The experiments indicate that the planet's interior cooled dramatically, over 240 degrees Celsius between 4.2 and 3.7 billion years ago -"

Hilarious!!!

Did we consider creation? What happened when God created the planet? Did anything liquefy or melt? Everything about the so called science claim here shouts religion.

Like we just assume that last tuesday happened?
One can assume what one wants, however, one would need evidence if one called it a science claim.

There is a spirit behind anti Christ science you know. I see it raise it's head once in awhile. Here are some scientists at Cern getting into it..
"
Fake human sacrifice filmed at Cern, with pranking scientists suspected
The video, which circulated online, shows several individuals in black cloaks gathering in a main square at Europe’s top physics lab, in what appears to be a re-enactment of an occult ceremony.

The video includes the staged “stabbing” of a woman. It is filmed from the perspective of a secret viewer watching from a window above who, as the ceremony reaches its climax, lets out a string of expletives and flees with the camera still running.

The ceremony appears to have been staged in front of a statue of the Hindu deity Shiva that is on permanent display at the complex, home of the Large Hadron Collider."
