• 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.

Literal Flood believers, some questions

Huh???

What have I got to do with those 11 questions not getting answered?

You have many replies in this thread, none of which answer any of the questions in the OP. That's what you have to do with the answers.

Oh, lying for Jesus is now considered "defending the faith"? That's news to me.
I think you can retire that term here, Cab.

It's so sterile, Mr. Clean would be envious.

Even I've been accused of that.

Why should I retire the term? I have seen people doing it repeatedly. The "dissent from Darwin" statement is a prime example of "lying for Jesus".

Do you tell lies to defend your faith?
No.

What kind of question is that?

My faith stands solid and is anchored within the veil by the Captain of my salvation.

Yours?

I agree, the last thing Christianity is is 'the religion of love', Christianity is the religion for the selfish and the egotist, they think there is a God that is there solely for them, for them it's just one long ego trip, it's just a pity it's all in their minds.
If there was a God I'm sure that God would not go searching for the dumb and the gullable people of this world.

That was completely uncalled for.

It was St. Augustine, the original saying is "with love for mankind and hatred of sins".

Last I checked, AV doesn't accept St. Augustine as a Christian.

I sincerely ask these to learn how you address them and your reasoning.

7) Why is there no single continuous section of the flood anywhere on Earth?

As the global flood waters recede they would break down into multiple thousands of large and small 'local floods', which is what is evidenced on the surface of the earth. The more, and varied, land area a flood effects the less likely uniform evidence will be found. Also deposition and sorting of the same material can occur multiple times during a very large flood. Science is looking for something that isn't there.

Except for the fact that we can date those. They did not happen 4,500 years ago.
