  • 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.

Postulating "theories" based on "assumptions"?

Like the Oracle in the popular Movie "Matrix" who said to Neo, "What's really going to boggle your mind later on is, would you still have broken it (the vase) if I hadn't said anything.

Would we (humans) be where were at, if people like Jesus Christ and his apostles and the prophets and leaders and other "revolutionaries" like them hadn't "stood up" and taken their stand and said anything? Did their words and actions "direct" us toward/down our course thus far? And could this be predicted by say a "higher power"?

Jesus said in Matthew 24:35-36- "Heaven and Earth will pass away but my "words" will by no means pass away" (and he was/is right) 36- "Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the Heavens, nor the Son, but only the Father ("the" "higher power" that predicts all things from the first (and last) word spoken or action taken)

Now, I'm going to "get into" "postulating" some "theories" here, and what I want you (all) to keep in mind is that they are only human "theories" discussion based on assumptions along certain lines of possibility, But what I've "discovered" with most theories anyways is that it is not usually that: one theory is 100% wrong and another theory is 100% right, but that it can sometimes be fifty-fifty, or 90-10, (that is a part (percentage) can be "right" and a part (percentage) "wrong" due to the very nature of having to "work" off of "assumptions"

So anyways, here it is, Moses recorded the first five books of the bible, correct?, Well, where did he get the story of Adam & Eve from and the tales of a global flood and the tower of Babel, Did he not get them from Abraham, who was called "God's friend" and was the first one to make a start of recording things (putting things down in writing to be passed down through the generations for future reference) And wasn't it "he" (Abraham) that started recording these things according to personal revelations that he received from God? (and maybe some history that was verbally told him by his fathers or teachers before he left the land of Ur of the Caldeans, who were said to have wisdom of the past and may have had some of these stories in their history) either way, these stories, these tales were either considered history or personal revelations by God.

Now, I'm going to seem to get a little off track here for a minute, but I'm going to try to come back and connect the the stories (theories)

I heard (on the news) that in our recent times this "modern age" that were all so very proud of (& I'm being sarcastic) anyways, I heard that they were going to start introducing "Sex Ed" to kindergardeners, "kindergardeners" for Christs sake!, and I heard them "interview" one woman who said, "Oh, yeah, I think that's OK, I think that's a "good" idea" and I found myself screaming (on the inside) "What!, you think that's "OK" huh?" The things we expose our children to, in this "modern era", an "age" and era where the media, and majority vote and popular opinion and as I said the "media", which is only driven by sheer "profit", and all the "things" that "get the most attention" and is "concerned" with nothing else. Anyways and some (most) of the things that "enthrall" us adults, "children should not be "forced" to be "exposed to" and be forced to have to deal with at such an early stage in life. Now the "heads" of our media and entertainment industry are basically "leading" the world, guiding popular culture and therefore "society" and the rest of the world and it leaders are just "following suit and trying to "keep up". Their all snakes, in my opinion, the ones in the lead anyway, "serpents, offspring of vipers" as Jesus might say

The things some of modern day/age "adults" are "entertained" by sicken me, not only are we very interested in sex, but also we (are entertained by, and the media comes up with) ever more inventive, creative, methods of sadism, violence, savagery, and cruelty. We are all just so enthralled and entertained, and some of us even "amused" by the most creative mass murderer, or ones with the most sadistic intelligence. Part of me thinks that not only are we "no better" than animals, but that we are even worse than the animals, For example I don't know of any animal that "gets it's rocks off" and is so enthralled by killing and violence, animals kill because and when they have to, and for food, and they are by no means "entertained" by ever more creative ways of the experience (killing) the "animals" are more "righteous" than we (human beings are) As I recently discovered I am (I guess) a "righteous" person, in that, some (most, all) of these things that we are "entertained" by bother me very much, and makes me want to be "sickened" when I take a good look at the human race, (at what we have become, what we have amounted to, in this "modern age") And it makes me think of the children, who's innocence is violated, and who really aren't allowed to be children for very long, in this modern age, were screwing them up, there "too young" to be exposed to some of the things were exposing them to.

I think, a "righteous" man, (or woman) would commit and be guilty of one particular "sin", and that sin would be fibbing to your children and telling them white lies, and making up stories for them, both to preserve their innocence (for as long as possible and allowing a kid to be a kid, again, for as long as possible) and to make them "believe" that they can become "more than what they are" that they are not the ugly, gross, sadistic sociopathic person's that modern day's societies "picture/truth" of/about them (and humanity) would make them out to be. And the children are not too offended, once/when they become "adults" (by when they asked you where babies came from, you told them a story about a stork and a baby factory) Most of them truly "understand" why you did it, it was to protect them, and allow them to enjoy and have their innocence for as long as possible, and to allow them the freedom to discover "truths" for themselves as they got older, but this modern day age and society does things to children that I would consider close to "raping" them, by robbing them of their innocence.

Now, I just wonder if a righteous God, would do the same as a righteous parent would for their kids, If one definition of who you are, or what one becomes is "I think, (or I believe) and therefore I am" Would a righteous "parent" tell their child a story that would make them "believe" fully that they could "become" something close to superheroes, (that they were and could become "more" than mere animals) and by telling them this story, they actually "could" "become" and "could" aspire/rise up as something very close to that... As I said earlier, It's just a theory, and I'm Probably/likely 90% wrong, and only 10% right, but it does cause one to stop and think doesn't it?

My Hopes and Prayers be with you all, and with the children of this modern day society, thanks for listening, Jay

I heard that they were going to start introducing "Sex Ed" to kindergardeners,

You are wrong if you think 5 yo don't see pornography.
With no education to assist. My 7 yo grandchild self-censors
putting her hand up when TV shows sex scenes.

And that's just the commercials.
