  • 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.

The Big Bang is an Old Testament event.
The Big Bang is attributed to the Kabbalah or the oral tradition that goes along with the written tradition, what they call the Torah or the books written - recorded by Moses.

You mean to tell me you don't know the difference between BC and AD?

Are you a scientist?

Because if you are, then I would understand.
Exactly, they do not see before and after, old and new. They see everything as a continuum from the beginning. We have what God said, and we have what God saw.

You mean that arbitrary timeframe invented by the church - but which they miscalculated?
Are you a scientist?

Because if you are, then I would understand.
Because a scientist can do math better than the church?

Ever heard of the following?
  1. Noah's Flood
  2. Tower of Babel
  3. Parting of the Red Sea
  4. Fall of Jerico
  5. David and Goliath
  6. Daniel in the Lion's Den
Those are known as "Old Testament events."

The reason is simple: they happened in Old Testament times.

You know? those dates that have "BC" after them?

Ever heard of the Big Bang?

It supposedly occurred in 13,700,000,000 BC.

Guess what that means?

It means it is an Old Testament event.

Make sense now?
I have read several of the meanings of Genesis 1:1. None of them come even close to yours.

Congratulations!

You now know the secret of debating creationism.

Never ... under any circumstances ... stray from Genesis 1 in discussing creationism.

If you do, the conversation is over, and they will discuss everything BUT creationism.
