  • 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.

It is obvious some type of flying contraption that lights up and is not lit by the sun
That is obviously your biased opinion, since nothing at all is obvious from your blurry photos.

So you claim that the earth and the firmament are nowhere ? Okay this says a lot.
"Flat earth" and firmament. Your inability to read what you quoted says a lot

A reflector is just as much a source of light as an emitter, but it will always be a lesser light than the emitter.

The moon is not a reflector, it genially gives off it's own light.

Ok well lets say you believe humanity came about from God creating Adam (man) as stated in Genesis 1.
No, it's not a case of "let's say" - I told you that is what I believe.
But there is no details Genesis 1 just states God created man male and female.
That's what I told you!

You said that there is no mention of a universe in Genesis 1. You seemed to be saying that because of that, the universe doesn't exist.
I replied that there is no mention in Genesis 1 of God creating our brains, but that doesn't mean that they don't exist.
That was my whole point - just because a word isn't used or a thing described in detail in Genesis 1, does not mean that it is not in existence.
You do not believe that God created the moon as a great light, even though that is stated in the verse. But now you resort to and believe what science states that the moon reflects the suns light and does not give off its own light. That God did not actually create a great light but a light reflector.​
I didn't mention, and wasn't talking about the moon, so don't tell me what I believe.
My point was as I've said, above; just because Genesis 1 does not use the word universe, it does not mean that we do not have a universe.

Point made; end of discussion.
Now, if you want to know what I believe about other things, that is a different subject - but don't expect me to discuss science or evolution. This is only about Scripture.

Its not even in the Bible, Bible just calls the Moon "light" and does not specify how the light is produced. You are claiming needless nonsense you heard somewhere on internet.

Want to see a real photo of the Iss i took. It is obvious some type of flying contraption that lights up and is not lit by the sun

Cool, you proved to yourself that the ISS exists and is orbiting the Earth exactly in times and places as said in the official sources (or else you would not be able to photograph it).

Even though your photos are blurred and not the best ones, some basic structure is recognizable.

I know it's not in the Bible, but the moon giving off her own light has been proven.

You can say whatever you want, but the reality is still out there, unchanged. You even made a blurred photo of it.

I do wish you would stop saying this, it only serves as putting you in a bad light.
So act as an adult, read the texts properly, create rational posts, remember things etc.

So you post a video that debunks your claim. Interesting.
She obviously makes no effort to even read or watch her sources, she reads only titles.
