  • 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.

Is Erectus an anatomically modern human?

i guess that is why some of those skulls were obtained by shooting the aboriginal australian who was wearing it at the time

That never happened.

-the theory of evolution is the most extreme form or racism there is

Bahahahahahah! I can't believe that people type this garbage with a straight face.

Those that shot Australian Aborignes simply did not understand the theory. Their own racism was the probably reason that they shot them and the theory of evolution was merely a handy excuse.

There was some grave robbing, but the only shooting of Australian Aborigines was to take their land, not their skulls.

And your atheist. Nothing you have to say on the matter is of value to me.

I don't know if she is hiding an Erectus sized skull behind that pretty face. But at this point I'm too mesmerized to find out.

She's not. This is an erectus skull. It looks nothing like a sapiens skull.

My atheist? What do you mean by that? And like it or not Catholics are just as Christian as you are. Perhaps more so. It appears that you know nothing of either science or Christianity. People here can help you with that. Both Christian and non-Christian.

but the term -I don't view the rcc as christian .they worship Mary and follow the pope. I don't.- is not stating or implying anything ,it is plainly stating how " I " view them . you however I state are certainly not Christian you are one who says in his heart there is no god . the psalmist calls you a fool .. you can have him banned or deleted if you wish ,wont change it though .later on i will be banned(like that's a big deal lol ) but until you repent you will still be a fool . the scripture says so .

Can she cook?
I once met a fellow who would proudly declare in the presence of his wife that although the kids weren't his, he didn't mind because after all, it was him whom they called dad. Also, that although she was indeed homely, he also didn't mind at all because no other wife he knew could cook like his homely wife. To which his wife in turn would immediately beam with pride.

Exactly what do you see as non-human in that skull?

Radook, if you can't tell the differences between that and an actual human skull, I don't know what to say to you. Look at the amount that the teeth jut out, and the small brain case for starters. Compare it with skull N, below, which is a human skull. You can see that the skull above is partway between A (a modern Chimp) and N (human). In fact, I'm not sure if it's a little closer to the chimp or the human in the features mentioned above (and others).

Now that you've looked at this, does it make more sense?

Thanks for the illustrations.
The human skull under the letter N has far larger braincase. What is the one under the letter M supposed to be?

No, we just want a debate on the topic. I can't put you down just for being Christian. You can't put me down for being an atheist. It is in the rules here. And you definitely can't tell a fellow Christian that they are not a Christian.

but the term -I don't view the rcc as christian .they worship Mary and follow the pope. I don't.- is not stating or implying anything ,it is plainly stating how " I " view them . you however I state are certainly not Christian you are one who says in his heart there is no god . the psalmist calls you a fool

Be very careful how you tread with your fellow Christians. And as to the quote from Psalm that you do not understand it does not say that atheists are fools. You did not understand that verse. Also it appears that you have no knowledge of what an atheist is. Hating something that you do not understand is not logical.

... you can have him banned or deleted if you wish ,wont change it though .later on i will be banned(like that's a big deal lol ) but until you repent you will still be a fool . the scripture says so .

Sorry it does not say that. Your inability to understand your own Bible makes it a very poor weapon. Also your Bible is a"knife" that only cuts one way. Even if you did understand it the Bible has no more force against non-Christians than the Koran has against you. Are you frightened when Muslims quote the Koran at you? If you understood why you weren't you would understand why others laugh when you quote the Bible at them. It is not an effective way to bring people to your God. And it is a losing technique in any debate. Why post something that only makes you lose the argument?

M is a Cro-magnon (which is classified as early Homo sapiens). Several before that (K, L, etc) are neanderthal. G is Homo erectus - and is luckily directly above H, making them easy to compare. just as above, they are clearly different.
