• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

As I said I don't feel insulted, as I'm not a scientist. But I love to see people pile on making fun of others. So needless to say I DOUBLY love it when Christians do it!

Can you for give us?

It gets a bit silly in here at times.

No harm intended.

I'm not talking about tax dollars specifically.

I'm talking about other forms of support as well.

Income from funding projects and such.

So don't you think they "earn" their money?

If you say they do not then I will equally claim YOU don't deserve your pay. It's as simple as that. WHATEVER aspersion you wish to cast at "scientists" applies equally to you. They are people doing a job. A job that YOU benefit from every single day. And, hint, most of them don't make as much money as the folks who count the money in whatever organization they are in.

So whatever negative thing you think about scientists as a whole, I think about you (short of the whole satan thing which is just bizarre).

No problem. (AV appears to think they are doing Satan's work, so I'm uncertain how much "fun" he's having with it...but it certainly is silly.)

Take responsibility for the hatred you are spewing at them!
I have over 143,000 times more posts than you; and I can assume you you have no clue as to what I think of scientists overall.

Actually I know what you think of scientists since I can read! You seem to think that they are a "gift from God" yet you treat them as if they are foils for an unending stream of dislike. You hold them accountable for Thalidomide, Challenger disaster, etc.

I am fascinated because you heap almost nothing but scorn on them and then you cover it over with a heaping helping of pablum about them being "gifts from God".

I hope you don't treat ALL of God's gifts that way! (I would think God would get tired of it).

Really? You're still acting like the number of posts means something? It doesn't. Do you think they should decide who gets to be president by the number of letters to the editor they've had appear in the paper?

Actually it DOES matter because it helps establish a pattern. And the pattern I see is AV heaping scorn on science and scientists followed by his mealy-mouthed half-apology by either saying the scientists are too stupid to know they are doing the work of Satan or that they are God's Gift.

And, of course, whenever science says something that AV disagrees with then "science can take a hike".

I am glad he has so many more posts! (And the counting posts are always nice).

Spare me the fake indignation.

Most scientists today are doing the Devil's work and getting this world prepared for the coming of the Antichrist.

Not consciously, mind you, but doing it.

Apart from the ones helping your wife of course. The more the monkey climbs the tree......
