• 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.

Of course it is related to the theory of evolution.

The Theory of Evolution relates to biology.

If you want to learn more about it, I suggest perusing the educational material in the OP.

If you want to learn about or discuss cosmology, I suggest a different thread. That is not the subject of this thread.

I would actually recommend Neil Shubins book, your inner fish. That and "some assembly required".

These are good books, maybe just 5-10 dollars pre-owned on Amazon or eBay.

Steven J Gould's Wonderful life is a good book on Cambrian fauna.

Donald Protheros: The Story of Life in 25 Fossils: Tales of Intrepid Fossil Hunters and the Wonders of Evolution

Carl Sagan's: demon haunted world is good for considering how to think about or how to approach science as a whole. Pretty much anything Sagan is pretty good.

For geology:
Reading the Rocks: The Autobiography of the Earth by Marcia Bjornerud is good.

That and "Bones rocks and stars" by Chris Turney.

*bump*

Seeing a few folks here lately that definitely could benefit from these courses.
Not if they have plants and animals existing prior to 4004 BC.

What are you afraid of?
I don't fear ignorance.

Did Mozart know E=mc2?

Did Darwin know the Sicilian Dragon?

Do you know the Breeches Attack?

We're all ignorant in most categories, and shine in a few.

Ignorance comes naturally.
