  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I went looking for pictures of Conan Stevens because he's of that size and looks like he'd be terrifying in battle... but then hilariously I found out he played Goliath in a TV series.


Hafþór Björnsson (yes I did have to copy-paste that name), who also played the Mountain along with Stevens in GoT, is exactly 6'9 and would be terrifying to see in battle.

It seems quite reasonable to me that the oldest sources are probably the more reliable ones here, rather than the later Masoretic Text.

This is my opinion I believe that many things were not included in the bible on purpose. If everything was included people would be spooked all of the time. Nothing would be hidden. Just as most Christians want the bible to say something in exact words. Jesus talk to the people in parables. They didn't understand. He wanted them to seek understanding through the Holy Spirit, because their minds were carnal. They couldn't understand the heavenly meaning. They only understood earthy.

This is just quasi-Gnosticism.

I would recommend the following books.

https://www.amazon.com/Giants-Record-Americas-History-Smithsonian-ebook/dp/B016U3DVSS

and

Amazon.com : judgement of the nephilim book

The Bible has something like 32 types of giants and 22 individual giants called out specifically.

Wow.

The co-author Hugh Newman has some... um... interesting? other material.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DCB2NRV/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0
"Do ancient maps prove that the planet was surveyed 12,000 years ago? Were the poles once in a different position to where they are today? Is there a secret pattern joining the great sites of antiquity? In this revolutionary little book, ancient sites expert Hugh Newman outlines various theories concerning geometry in the distribution of sacred sites on Earth and comes to some startling conclusions."

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002VLWAJK/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i6
"Across the world, there are thousands of sacred sites built by mysterious people from ages past. Great circles, monoliths, and temples hold our imagination, because we still do not fully understand their original purpose.

Could it be that these special places were more than just astronomical observatories? Could they also be tapping into the energy of the very earth upon which they stand?
"

Books so good, they should probably win the Madame Blavatsky and Edgar Cayce awards in science.

In related news: I collected a bunch of crystals and wore a pyramid on my head, but for some reason I can't seem to align my aura's color to the right vibrational frequency to connect my consciousness with Atlantis.

Sorry to necro this thread but seeing as this is the last he was mentioned, has anyone have any news from AV1611VET? Seems he haven't posted since November 4th and it's not like him to even skip a day. I tried to reach out but I'm just dirty lurker and probably ignored.

Actually, he has taken several breaks over time. That's probably all it is, but it would be nice to know.

Remember you have to wear it with the point directed upwards.
