  • 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.

Not unless you're willing to jettison the garden of eden as literally true.

In my theology Adam and Eve arrived on an old, evolved earth, that had already fallen. By the time the Hebrews wrote about Adam and Eve the story only survived in fragmented form, hence it was believed in Mesopotamian lore that A & E were the first humans of a singular creation event. They didn't know any better and frankly the story suited it's faith purposes for the Jews.

This explains a number of oddities and contradictions in the Genesis narration.

But you think your interpretation of scripture is the automatic truth, even when it conflicts with objective reality.
That's faith for ya :).. oh and i did not say facts are not correct (though often they are not and have to constantly updated which is evidence that they keep getting it wrong) but facts can be changed to match the truth .And just because some christians are weaker in faith and so buy into some theories of evolution does not make them automatically right either . God is .
not sure why you keep quoting me . when you've filed the world with words upon words ..i shall say " God is " . :)

and he has spoken his word to save .. and his word became flesh and His name is the lord JESUS.. and who so ever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life.

We have always known that those espousing absolute truths are usually not interested in facts.
well my goodness ..did i say i was interested in the so called facts that some one else observed and told you and you believed their word and then they observed something else and changed the facts and then told you and you believed their word and then they observed something else and changed the facts and told you and you believed their word and then they died ...
i will take the word of God over mans fickle untrustworthy words any day :)

time you did too :) as time is something you think you have a lot of .. but not any more

Is it possible that evolution is Gods technique of creation?
is a good topic for another thread really .. but while the answer is yes it is possible .. (anything is possible ) for it to be the case it must fully contradict what God has said as recorded in the bible .

hahahaha nope the picture is collapsing and folks are scrambling to fill in the gaps with more guesses .

any ways im not sure what any one hopes to achieve..will you convert me to become an evolutionist ? impossible .
i have faith in God alone .. and they who do not wil perish .
of course the many can mock me for saying so.. but be that as it may , the message remains presented .:)

Or it could be that as more evidence is discovered and research undertaken that a deeper understanding is reached and the theory modified accordingly.

If evolution, or any other scientific theory, was static and unchanging - that's when there would be problems. It's by changing and adapting to new knowledge that science improves and develops.

Your claim that it is 'collapsing' will sure come as a surprise to the thousands of scientists who use it in their everyday work.

The Bible was written and rewritten by the Holy men of Church government, therefore one should approach the Bible through God rather than God through the Bible.

What about the creation itself, which God supposedly made?

My point is that man is the only 'evolved' creature that has to produce his own food; a monumental failure of evolution that is unique only to man.
Its a very popular theory that man evolved the way he did because he cooks and produces his food.

Haha... put fast food in the pic and id call devolving
The problem today is science develops new food in the lab and prepares it in a factory on an assembly line. We need to go back to cooks making food in a kitchen.

Anyone who has studied the bible will appreciate the irony of this statement.
