• 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

Merriam-Webster … a person who is unwilling to commit to an opinion about something.
You obviously don't understand what that means. I have been consistent in saying the Richat Structure is not Atlantis. And I'll stick to that opinion because that's what the evidence indicates.

The evidence is so overwhelming…
.. that this dude is a truth seeker and is thus looking for a singular single event (ie: a 'what') and not considering, for a minute, the evidence of long timespan geological processes (ie: the 'how').
Classical pseudoscientific approach!

long timespan geological processes

Gradualists explained geological features as the result of slowly acting processes such as erosion, while catastrophists argued that Earth had been shaped mainly by a series of violent events or catastrophes

Scientists have different reasons, however.

Skeptics like to say they disagree with pseudo science
Science and pseudoscience is distinguished by the separate 'how' approaches to investigations:
