  • 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.

Maybe the Mormons were right about the Holy land being in N.A.
Gophers are only found in Americas, making the Redwood #1 suspect in aiding in ark.

I think that it's good that you're looking into things like this. I want to caution you to study the Bible, as its own Truth, before looking into other ideas.

As for the wood, as I understand things from a simple google-type search, the Hebrew word used that was translated "gopher" was actually something else. It's the letters, "g-f-r" with no "ph" in the word. So, no American gophers involved.

Some think that the wood was teak, because it was common to the area and suitable for the purpose... IDK.
