  • 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.

Evolution False? Absolute proof inside.

:doh: you do realize actually following these directions would spread disease, not prevent it, right?
No, actually, I don't.

I believe doing it your way would have.

Killing a bird and sprinkling its blood on a house as a cure for leprosy would most certainly have exposed you to the disease.

Touching bird blood in and of itself, let alone having it all over your house, is a huge biohazard. And I would never do such an animal sacrifice.

Not if God so ordered it done.
And I would never do such an animal sacrifice.
That's right ... you wouldn't.

The priest would.

Leviticus 14:48 And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it, and, behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house was plaistered: then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.
Leviticus 14:49 And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
Leviticus 14:50 And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water:

-_- a priest's opinion doesn't really equate to god's opinion AV.
We're talking about something that seems to be low on scientists' totem pole, Sarah: obedience.
I wouldn't use the bible for any sort of medical advice, you'll get yourself killed

Thanks for the advice.

Physicians, like lawyers, can't live with 'em, can't live w/o 'em.....

Mark 5:
25 and a certain woman, having an issue of blood twelve years,
26 and many things having suffered under many physicians, and having spent all that she had, and having profited nothing, but rather having come to the worse.

http://supernatural.blogs.com/weblog/2007/10/10-out-10-jewis.html


...................... .....The South African Union of Orthodox Synagogues (UOS) has won its legal battle against an advert by the evangelical missionary group Jews for Jesus over offensive adverts claiming that ’10 out of 10 Jewish Doctors Recommend Jesus’.

100% of Jewish doctors do not endorse Jesus. It actually refers to a book that "Jews for Jesus" is promoting called ‘Jewish Doctors Meet the Great Physician’ which has testimony from ten Jewish doctors on why they chose Jesus.

Quite true, Lamb. I have dealt with physicians for 20 years and it is like herding cats.

Tell you what though, they are some smart dudes. If me or my family is in need of medical attention, their medical science knowledge comes in mighty handy.

Ehh,
Okay, so he says carbon dating and many other ways proves a young earth, the carbon dating way is, that after so many years the carbon splits in half, so if a dinasour bone was found it could not have any carbon if it was billions of years old, sense all of the carbon would be gone from splitting in half, sense it splits in half after a few years, so therefor, it can not be that old, because scientists find carbon inside disasour bones, around as big as a finger nail, which if it was that old, would be litterly impossible.

Shall we go in debate of this one? theres many other ones too.
such as evidence of the flood, sea shells on mount everest found in the 1950's.

Do you not know how mountains are formed?

QV please:

Like I said, obedience to what? The Bible? Tradition? You?

Does it even matter?

Or, again, are we not allowed to ask these questions?

And for that, we back up four more posts:
For what purpose was this done, Sarah?

Leviticus 14:48 And if the priest shall come in, and look upon it, and, behold, the plague hath not spread in the house, after the house was plaistered: then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed.
Leviticus 14:49 And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:


Please read the above passage carefully and note that birds aren't even factored into the equation until the house is already pronounced "clean."

The cooties have left the building ... time for the birds now.
Isn't this fun?

Ok, so the Bible.... it doesn't have to make sense, it just has to be obeyed.

Now, couldn't you have just said that?

No they can't just say that, because then people bring up the death penalty for witches,disobedient children, ect.

I'm sorry, but obeying the whims of ancient, barely literate goat herders shouldn't be high on anyone's priority list.

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one or few :)

John 11:
47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said "what shall we do? For this Man works many signs.
49 And one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,
50 "nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish."

Rom 5:19
for as through the disobedience of the one man, the many were constituted sinners:
so also through the obedience of the One Man, shall the many be constituted righteous.

Which is unfortunate, because that sort of mockery of justice is prevalent all throughout the Bible.

Doesn't seem to be loaded with personal accountability now does it?

Also, I have trouble with the morality of a murderer obtaining eternal life if he finds Jesus in prison, while the Hindu or non believer who lived a caring life is doomed.

Morality and fairness, at it's finest.

Unless you are Catholic, in which case you have to be both a decent person and a believer.
