  • 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.

Perhaps you have not noticed, but this is not the forum for bible studies but a scientific discussion forum, so I fail to see what relevance your bible quoiting about how to feed dogs, and wash your eyes and other utter nonsense even remotely has to do with anything what I have said so far...

Who are you supposed to convince with this?
Exactly. Evolutionist tries to explain man's origins completely by mechanics but have trouble convincing it to the apes he think he came from. Evolution is the belief that an ape can eventually become a scientist.

Nah the answer is very clear.

You do know that the fish stuff was proven absolutely wrong. Right? Matter of fact it was and still is considered a hoax.
A human doesn't produce a fish. Not even close. Not DNA, Not embryonic, Not stem cells.....you cannot ever...go from one kind into another kind.

It starts as a zygote- has 46 chromosomes-23 from mother and 23 from father
zygote travels down fallopian tube and becomes a cluster of cells called a morula
As it travels down the tube the cells divide into what is called a blastocyst, the inner cells is the embryo and the outer cells are what attaches to the uterus and the placenta nourishes the embryo.
The 5th week, the brains, spinal cord and other organs begin to form.

This is from the Mayo Clinic and just a small portion of the development of a child. Which is at conception.

Where did all this erroneous idea get its start? It began with Evolutionist and German zoologist Ernst Haeckel in his 1876 book General Morphology of Organisms. With supreme audacity it was called the “Biogenetic Law.” It was a fraud from the beginning. Haeckel fraudulently presented altered, misleading and misinterpreted evidence. Some of the key details of his embryo drawings were wrong—purposely altered to make a case for Evolution where none existed. Yet, how many people still know this? Of Haeckel, Richard Milton says, “No errant scientist has been more thoroughly disowned by his colleagues. …The biogenetic law is no longer taken seriously by embryologists.”

Please, you can't use the Bible to defend the evils of the Bible. If so you might as well sign up with Satan and be done with it.

Are you asking me to provide you with a link to your own - repeated - claim that god magically suspended the laws of physics and that the laws of physics was different in the past?

God created physics, why would he suspend it.

False. Belif in creation means belief Jesus created man and all things as the bible says.
The "Genesis" version of "creation" is somewhere in this list, but I don't think your particular version of it is mentioned.

Creation from chaos
Earth diver
Emergence
Ex nihilo (out of nothing)
World Parent
Africa
Americas
Mesoamerica
Mid North America
South America
Asia

The demonic so called science flavor of creation is that the bible is wrong. Clear as good and evil.
If it is so clear, why have you made no progress with this?

Your right, the bible isn't a scientific book.
But the creator of the Book created science.
I used it to show you that God does say not to place your pearls before the swine...other words the gospel doesn't belong to those who will trample it under their feet.
The relevance is this, making an absolute statement without the facts is foolish.

Please, you can't use the Bible to defend the evils of the Bible. If so you might as well sign up with Satan and be done with it.

Who says you can't use the Bible to interpret the Bible?
You?
So, if we go into the discussion of evolution, you wouldn't use what information you have on evolution to defend it?
Guess where you get that from? Books and teachers.

Because you can't defend against the Word of God, doesn't mean we shouldn't use it. It is about Him after all.
What evils of the bible?...oh..forgot...your stuck in the Old Testament, using the same old tired argument that God's a big meanie, because He was trying to set up a nation, to be the example of how he wants mankind to live. And in the process of making said nation, wars a happened and some people got killed...that happens in war you know.
but you see, for every nation God beat, he gave them a chance to repent and turn to Him. Some of these people you defend so much...which I don't think you have a clue to who they were and the things they were doing to even get God mad at them...weren't angels. Many were depraved, child sacrificing, pedophiles, and womanizers that walked the earth. Sacrificing to there false gods, Molech and many others that required child sacrifices and complete control over the people.
God didn't want that type of depravity around, in or related to His people. He even punished them when they took up the practices of the people they conquered.
Learn the history of the people conquered and you'll know why they were.
God's grace and mercy did go out to them. They just did what you are doing...shook their puny little hands at Him and said, we don't want you, we don't believe in you and go away. So He did, He took away His grace and His mercy and then removed them.

No I did not know that. But I know that a fish has two chamber heart, am amphibian has a three chamber heartheart, a mammal has a four chamber heart. I also know that the developing human heart goes through these stage in iteration from simple to more complex. All this are observed fact, so to say it has been proven wrong is rather ignorant on your part. What do you actually know about physiology, comparative anatomy and embryology?

A human doesn't produce a fish. Not even close.

Where did you get that silly idea from? And why are you spending time refuting claims nobody made?

Where did all this erroneous idea get its start? It began with Evolutionist and German zoologist Ernst Haeckel

I fail to see what Heckle has to do with the findings of modern embryology. I suggest you complement the nonsense you can find at creationistic website with the past hundred years of discovery made in biology since after Heckle.

Are these, cherry picked bible quotes, supposed to be your evidence that the theory of evolution is a philosophy?
Dear me.

Color me impressed.

You suddenly became an expert on the Bible, didn't you?

What did I do?

Step on someone's sacred evolution?

If I said the laws of physics were different in the past, I take it back.

But some were definitely suspended.

Or not needed yet.

Your right, the bible isn't a scientific book.

I made not make such statement. How did you mange to make what I said into that? What I tried to say was that your bible quoting made no sense to me, nor does it have a place here.

But the creator of the Book created science.

You make an aserrtions, then I can make an assertion too: Odin created the universe. Now, how do we decide who is right?

I used it to show you that God

Well, I was told by Odin not to believe anything that is written in the Bible. Therefore you shall believe me?

God does say

It is something written in the Bible and for all we know the Bible has been written by humans. Therefore your claim that "god says" this or that is utter nonsense.

other words the gospel doesn't belong to those who will trample it under their feet. The relevance is this, making an absolute statement without the facts is foolish.

Again, second time, this is not the forum for bible studies or moral teaching. Nor is what you say relevant to the things I written or discussed. So thank you, but god bye.

No idea what you are talking about. Of course babies are babies n the womb.
Fetal material is fodder for fire.

God will heat up their hospital one day. Seems to me we are near the point when we need to ask....what's left BUT the wrath of God? Far as I'm concerned, unless they repent right away...God damn them.

A red herring AV.

If you think I do not see you are only making this remark because you want to avoid to address the issue that you just made an attempt to pass cherry picked bible quotes, based in confirmation bias, as evidence that the theory of evolution is a philosophy under the pretext that "the bible says so, and I just read it from it, therefore it must be true" then you are wrong..

What did I do?

Evading defending your claims, gish galloping, making up stories etc... the usual stuff you know.

Step on someone's sacred evolution?

Hardly. If you want to call observational evidence "sacred", that is up to you. But you miss my point, which I already addressed in another post just before; it is quite obvious to me that you only are making up stories to justify, to yourself, that the biblical myth has credibility - and I don't blame you for trying, but beside all the rhetoric, where is your evidence for your claims that the theory of evolution is a philosophy? I pointed out that the theory is based in evidence. However, you decided to wipe this under the carpet and ignore it. With the evidence against you and no evidence to back up your claims, who do you actually try to convince here AV?
