  • 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.

If creationism was ever taught in the science class.

PINK FLOYD LYRICS

"Run Like Hell"

Run, run, run, run [repeat line four times]
You better make your face up in
Your favourite disguise
With your button down lips and your
Roller blind eyes
With your empty smile
And your hungry heart
Feel the bile rising from your guilty past
With your nerves in tatters
When the cockleshell shatters
And the hammers batter
Down the door
You better run

Run, run, run, run [repeat line four times]
You better run all day
And run all night
And keep your dirty feelings
Deep inside. And if your
Takin' your girlfriend
Out tonight
You better park the car
Well out of sight
'Cos if they catch you in the back seat
Trying to pick her locks
They're gonna send you back to mother
In a cardboard box
You better run

Oh.. hey guys, here is the proof from the Bible that all atheists are nature worshippers:

Romans 1:21-22 --
21: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22: Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23: And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Seems to me it describes pagans who worship animal-like gods, such as the Egyptians, but hey... what do I know?

Wow. After I mentioned how disappointed I was with AV's evasion, he made 4 more posts in this thread -- 4 more opportunities where he could have shown some proof to support his claims, assuming such proof actually existed. Too bad he chose to run away instead.

Just assume I'm lying --- I don't really care.
At this point, there is hardly any need for assumptions. It's blatantly obvious that you are 1) lying and 2) too arrogant to admit defeat, both of which, IIRC, being rather important no-nos for a Christian.

That's right --- reality can take a hike.
God is real or god is not. If god is real, you just told him to take a hike. In short, if god disagrees with you he can take a hike. If his universe contradicts your holy book, or your interpretation of your holy book, you will forswear god. Dad would kick his [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse], you would just tell god to take a hike. Even the pre-Christian pagans understood the sin of hubris.

When all the lies burn away in the light of truth, when your arrogance cannot be hidden in the shadows of lies, what will be left of you, I wonder? You have despised your reason. You have made your holy book your whole universe. You have made yourself the supreme authority.

"Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad." --- Euripides
