  • 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 is just a theory!

Bottom line: you cannot offer any proof that the Bible's claim that everything was created 'pure' is factual. You have a claim only.
I don't stand around scratching my head though.

No scientific evidence then, thanks.
Not evidence that you would be able to understand. The main evidence is teeth. They should be for eating plants, not flesh. There is no violence in God's Kingdom. The animals do not eat and devour one another. That is why we talk about paradise and utopia. A world of peace and harmony where there is no fights, arguments or division. Because we will all have the mind of Christ and think the Divine thoughts of God.

6And the wolf will dwell with the lamb, And the leopard will lie down with the young goat, And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little boy will lead them. 7Also the cow and the bear will graze, Their young will lie down together, And the lion will eat straw like the ox. 8The nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra, And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper's den.9 They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD As the waters cover the sea.… Isa

Scientific evidence can be understood.

Let me know when you have some.

What evidence was it that you were wanting? You lost me somewhere along the way.

The scientific evidence you claim proves the bible is accurate. Specifically, the scientific evidence to show biblical creation is true and the flood happened.

I have asked you this about 10 times now, still nothing.

Must be a communication failure because I do not know what you want. I you sure you are not asking someone else? I know it gets to be a little confusing when your talking to two different people at the same time.

Amazing how some people can go from ...
Yes, I do know that the SLoT (did I get that right?) does apply to Earth and everything in it, but not in the way that creationists want it to apply. They think that due to Earth existing as long as it has and evolution acting on life on Earth as long as it has, it means that (for some messed up reason) the evolution should make things less 'advanced' (it was the only word I could think of for that), i.e. devolve.
... to:
And neither do I,
... when a creationist responds, isn't it?

By the way, notice how you come across as positive & sure about yourself when you say, "They think that...", but act like you're unsure of everything else?

You seem to think you know what goes on through the minds of creationists, but apparent don't want to come across as too knowledgeable in the area of science, do you?

Out of all the things to mention, me saying that I was unsure of terminology is what gets you?
Wow.

Also, I think you meant to put 'they think...' (which I do, since I have been a lurker here for several years, so I'm quite positive on what I've seen creationist claim) instead of 'they that...'.

Evidently you prefer to lurk in a creationist site to see what creationists think, rather than lurk in a scientific site to see what scientists think?

Even though this sub-forum is open to both believers and non-believers... yeah.

Sorry for being snarky, but I just take exception to Internet scientists who think they know how creationists think.

Then they won't answer simple questions honestly, if at all, when a creationist responds to their false accusations.

(And I'm not even thinking of you here. You're new, and I'm glad you're here.)

For what it's worth, you didn't come across as snarky. A bit disgruntled, aye. But not snarky.

But to be fair, your side doesn't have a good track record of responding to simple questions honestly. Swings and roundabouts, eh?

Well for the record, I do find "my side" a tad embarrassing and unwilling to speculate when speculation is called for.

But we're all on the same side, and that's good enough for me.

I do wish they (we) would drop the science though and go more by faith.

... just to clarify, on the second 'we', you mean other creationists, right?

Are you trying to suggest that Noah was not a real person, there was no flood and there was no Ark filled with animals?

To answer your question: yes.
To ask a question: what is the picture supposed to prove?
