  • 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.

I have no idea what you're saying now.

You're talking funny.

It's a simple YES or NO question.

I think I set off a "logic bomb," and now you're ... well ... talking funny.

Did Rome do you guys a favor by throwing Christians to the lions?

Sorry AV, to set off a logic bomb you first must understand logic.

That is why you fail.

AV,

Do you think the dudes that flew the planes into the twin towers were of sound mind?
Yes.

And before you start foaming at the mouth:

Do you think if they would have survived, that they should be able to plead INSANITY?

Did Christians do you a favor for dying for a lie?

Wow.

You're entitled to your opinion; however sickening others may find it.

Any superstition I may have had has already faded.

Nope, you are loaded with superstitious beliefs.

Don't worry, your grandkids' grandkids should be free of them.

Only in recent years has science discovered that everything we see is composed of invisible atoms. Scripture tells us that the "things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

Medical science has only recently discovered that blood-clotting in a newborn reaches its peak on the eighth day, then drops. The Bible consistently says that a baby must be circumcised on the eighth day.

At a time when it was believed that the earth sat on a large animal or a giant (1500 B.C.), the Bible spoke of the earth’s free float in space: "He...hangs the earth upon nothing" (Job 26:7).

The prophet Isaiah also tells us that the earth is round: "It is he that sits upon the circle of the earth" (Isaiah 40:22). This is not a reference to a flat disk, as some skeptic maintain, but to a sphere.

God told Job in 1500 B.C.: "Can you send lightnings, that they may go, and say to you, Here we are?" (Job 38:35). The Bible here is making what appears to be a scientifically ludicrous statement... but radio waves travel at the speed of light.

Job 38:19 asks, "Where is the way where light dwells?" Modern man has only recently discovered that light (electromagnetic radiation) has a "way," traveling at 186,000 miles per second.

Science has discovered that stars emit radio waves, which are received on earth as a high pitch. God mentioned this in Job 38:7: "When the morning stars sang together..."

Solomon described a "cycle" of air currents two thousand years before scientists "discovered" them. "The wind goes toward the south, and turns about unto the north; it whirls about continually, and the wind returns again according to his circuits" (Ecclesiastes 1:6).

Science expresses the universe in five terms: time, space, matter, power, and motion. Genesis 1:1,2 revealed such truths to the Hebrews in 1450 B.C.: "In the beginning [time] God created [power] the heaven [space] and the earth [matter] . . . And the Spirit of God moved [motion] upon the face of the waters." The first thing God tells man is that He controls of all aspects of the universe.

The great biological truth concerning the importance of blood in our body’s mechanism has been fully comprehended only in recent years.... Yet Leviticus 17:11, written 3,000 years ago, declared that blood is the source of life: "For the life of the flesh is in the blood."


Germs weren't discovered until 1845, but God gave His people specific instructions for when they encounter disease: "And when he that has an issue is cleansed of his issue; then he shall number to himself even days for his cleansing, and wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in running water, and shall be clean" (Leviticus 15:13). Until recent years, doctors washed their hands in a bowl of water, leaving invisible germs on their hands. However, the Bible says specifically to wash hands under "running water."

Luke 17:34–36 says the Second Coming of Jesus Christ will occur while some are asleep at night and others are working at daytime activities in the field. This is a clear indication of a revolving earth, with day and night at the same time.

Really?

Dude you gotta do better than that. Seriously. That was just really bad.

If they meet the legal requirement upon thorough medical review, then yes.
Oh, now we're gonna invoke "due process," are we?

Martyrs are crazy-sans-examination; but let them survive, and they are innocent-avec-due-process?

Suit yourselves.

You guys are solid aurum ... you know that, don't you?

Sorry AV, dealing with pleadings of insanity does involve due process and following the legal requirements.

As a clarification, a person can be psychologically unstable, have a form of mental illness and not meet the legal requirements of insanity, which is a higher threshold then plain old psychological issues.

Says the guy who believes a 4.57byo planet has only existed for 6ky, a Hebrew creation myth involved English speaking characters, and Noah lived in NJ.

Pretty sure you're always able to plead insanity.
Sounds to me like some people here have been to Nero's School of Social Improvement, haven't they?

Hitler would be proud, wouldn't he?

And once again typical creationist hypocrisy shines through. You are enjoying the benefits of civilized society while deriding some of the costs of it.

Yes, even though you may not like it due process is sometimes a necessary "evil" (and it really is not evil, it only delays justice in some cases).
