• 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.

I'm not suggesting changing the science of what is observable. I'm suggesting the origin of what is observed is beyond the reach of science.
Sure, you can make up whatever story you like to explain how it all got here - but unless the story has some firm basis in what we already know, or you have some way to test it, it's just mythologising.

I wonder what they will do when they discover the interface between energy and spirit (I predict the mass suicide of scientists. )
why would they do that..? It would just be more things to investigate.

You can't explain it to me in simplistic terms in a short forum post? In that case String theory is obviously garbage, stop wasting my time.






Seriously though, thanks, I'll check out your links.

Is that good news or bad news for you?
Bad news for all scientists everywhere, more like.

This is proof, if proof be need be, that no scientist anywhere knows anything about anything, ever.

If we are so good in Science, why there are so many mysteries there? UFOes, Dark Matter, lack of antimatter in Big Bang?

I love how you mentioned "ufo's" in the same list as dark matter and big bang / antimatter.

Supernatural creation is a common myth worldwide.

They would just add it to the pile of the many wacky theories they are now investigating.

Good, because I was tired of all the leading physicists saying that Sasquatch was invading earth through extra-dimensional portals. Everyone knows Sasquatch is a native to the Pacific Northwest, and lives on a diet of tree octopi.
