• 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.

Haldane's Four Stages of Acceptance for Scientific Ideas
  1. this is worthless nonsense
  2. this is an interesting, but perverse, point of view
  3. this is true, but quite unimportant
  4. I always said so.
Four stages of rejection could likewise be:
1. This is worthless nonsense
2. This is nothing more than a perverse point of view
3. This is trivially unimportant
4. I said it was nonsense at the start and I reaffirm that opinion

Funny how both scenarios have played out, but you only focus on one of them.

Strange how one can find dinosaurs bones / fossils but no human bones / fossils from millions of years ago. That there, is a big clue in itself!
dogs ate them obviously! Human bones yum, dinosaurs no way! Its why dogs stay near humans, just waiting for them to die.

Over the past two centuries, archaeologists have found bones, footprints, and artifacts showing that people like ourselves have existed on earth for many millions of years.
No they have not. As someone who has a degree in archaeology I'm happy to say this is pure trash.

Darwin is your deity
And the 2021 award for most dumb comment...... Goes to someone else, but stop with the claiming of some flawed 19th century scientist as a deity its stupid.

Placing humanity alongside dinosaurs (apart from birds) is embarrassing in its stupidity.
