• 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.

Yeah, well, so did Bob Tilton, but never for one minute did I take him and his clown show seriously.

If they aren't trolling, at the very least they're in it for the $$$.

Except for Sungenis, the squabbly sedevacantist with a penchant for controversy in pretty much any topic he touches.

Sungenis isn't a sedevacantist. Squabbly he is, for sure.

More about Sungenis and his "credentials" at sungenisandthejews.blogspot.com

Please note that Sungenis has no official capacity in the Catholic Church and was forced by his bishop to take the name "Catholic" off of his organization. Thank you.

Re: [tips] definition for abbreviation "iap"

IAP = inapplicable. The database includes data from 1972 all the way up to 2008, but the science questions were only asked in 2008; I guess the ~50,000 "inapplicable" records are simply people who were surveyed before then.
thanks :)

I find it interesting that these YEC movements always attack antiquated theories and science. No one disputes that Galileo missed a few things. Or that Darwin was wrong about a lot of stuff. Science doesn't rest on old findings. Hypotheses are tested and retested and what happens to be incorrect is thrown out. It's the vast amount of evidence that has been gathered since the origination of these ideas that supports them, not the original content.
