• 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.

You mean I'm doing fine for your side? ;)

I'm not sure why anyone posts here, if they can't answer the challenge.

They don't need to prove to me they can't answer it; but trying to find flaws with my wording or saying it didn't happen isn't making any points, as far as I'm concerned.

It's their prerogative though.

If they want to play Ring the Bell, fine; but if they can't do it, don't make it look like the game was rigged.
Oh, but they can answer your "challenge". They answer it in the completely correct way of pointing out that your challenge is wrong.

You might want to reconsider your challenges so that they don't challenge people to do something that is wrong... perhaps then you might get answers more to your gusto.

Your talking about the traditions of man, not the Bible. There is a reason why the BIBLE is the word of God. NOT man's opinions about the Bible. Think about this, I mean really think about it. The Bible has all the authority of God. Your opinion of the Bible has NONE of the authority of God.

So you give me your opinion, of another persons opinion and none of this has to do with God or the word of God. Have you ever read the Bible? Have you ever even studied the Bible at all? Do you know first hand anything at all about the Bible. Or do you just know man's opinions and what others tell you about it.

So should we listen to your opinion of another man's opinion, or should we look at what God has to say about it.

Of course, the only reason religious folk say this is so that when something is shown to contradict the Bible so well that they can't help but agree (such as the "sun goes around the earth" position that the church held for a long time) they can just blame it on people instead of where the source ultimately is.

Really, if the source of the problem is someone's flawed personal opinion, how do you explain everyone having the same opinion?

Explain this phenomenon ...

Deuteronomy 29:5 And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes are not waxen old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxen old upon thy foot.

... in such a way as to pass peer review and get acclaim in physics for showing how the second law of thermodynamics was suspended back then.
Simple; It wasn't! Now where's my prize ;)

God actually spoke to you :confused:

Easy.

It's just a story.

Prove that it actually happened and then we'll talk.

If there was proof that it actually happened, what would there be to talk about?

I love the point my pastor made.

Matthew 27:42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

Typical unbeliever: "First show me something; then we'll talk."

My daughter flew around the living room last night. Let's talk about that. What's that? You don't believe me and want some evidence that it actually happened? Oh please. If I showed you the video I took of it, then what would there be to talk about?

Do you see how ridiculous this line of reasoning is?

Did she now?

Let's talk about that.

Okay.

What's that? You don't believe me and want some evidence that it actually happened?

You're half right.

I don't believe you, and I don't want evidence.

Evidence is missing one letter: an ell.

Oh please. If I showed you the video I took of it, then what would there be to talk about?

Chriss Angel doing basically the same thing off of a rooftop?

I'll use that next time you post one of your little "challenges". You post, "Prove that God could not have done such and such," and I'll reply, "Oh, did he now?"


You start. Go any questions?

You're half right.

I don't believe you, and I don't want evidence.

Evidence is missing one letter: an ell.

Then you are missing out on the truth. What a shame. Do you think the TRUTH can take a hike?

Chriss Angel doing basically the same thing off of a rooftop?

So you agree that there is still stuff to talk about, even if evidence is provided!

So I guess that when you said:

Matthew 27:42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

You were just blowing smoke, huh?

Then explain the compatibility between the Pauli Exclusion Principle and infinite mass in zero volume?????

Because not only do you have two residing in the same space, but infinite particles all occupying a single point.
