• 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.

Did someone tell the egyptians? They were building pyramids, worshiping their gods centuries before this date, and this continued without any interuption whatsover. There was no flood, the idea that aflood happened killed everyone but noahs family, and then part of noahs family moved to egypt and carried on worshiping egypts gods, building pyramids etc is beyond absurd.

The great pyramid of giza was constructed about 2560 - 2540 bc.

The Egyptians came from Noah's grandson, Mizraim.

[VERSE=Genesis 10:6,KJV]And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.[/VERSE]

QV please: The Sixteen Grandsons of Noah.
Nonsense, Egyptian culture and religion from pyramid building, language, religion dates from 3000bc onwards without interruption, there is zero evidence of a global flood from Egypt. The idea that Noah's grandson learned the language, the religion, the architecture etc and continued that civilisation uninterrupted is truly absurd on the level of believing in fairies at the bottom of the garden. Indeed I would give greater credence to the fairies.

Only on paper, my friend.

There is zero evidence of a global flood from anywhere, including Mesopotamia.

Noah's grandson was the first Egyptian.

He didn't 'learn the language, the religion, the architecture, etc.,' -- he fathered it.

Why?

The dating is supported from multiple fields of study, within top universities across the globe, I know this is irrelevant to you but it is a reality.

There is zero, zip, nada evidence of a global flood as you have stated. Unless you are arguing that God flooded the world and the falsified the records, in which case his word is worthless.

There was no flood,
Farming in egypt and mesopotamia began on the flood plains. The silt from the flood makes very rich farmland. Every so many years they have a bigger flood than usual and people think it's a big disaster.

True, both Egypt and Mesopotamia are flood plains, I was talking about the global flood that many fundamentalists believe in.

The global flood took place in Pangaea about two million years ago. Noah flood around 4300 years ago was a type or a metaphor. Moses did save all the domesticated plants and animals.They did spread to the world from there. Science has put a huge amount of work into the discovery of how farming and civilization began. Just as the Bible suggests science confirms that Nineveh was the first city. Also the walls in Nineveh are still there today. They did come tumbling down just as the bible says. In every way the Bible has been shown to be an accurate and reliable history book.

So long as you only cherry pick the evidence.

The fundamentalism your talking about is based on a misunderstanding of bishop ushers book written 4 or 500 years ago. It is an amazing book. Like Moses in the Bible he based his book on other books that are no longer in existance. Actually Moses studied clay tablets but the Egyptians wrote on scrolls. People need to read these books for themselves and not go by what other people say about them. Even its in the public domain and sometimes you can find a copy online of the good bishops work. Now I got to listen to atheists giving their opinion of fundamentalists understanding of the good bishops work and it all gets twisted in a extremely unscientific way by people who claim to believe science ..............
