• 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.

The evidence, minus the false vestigial organ idea, and nested hierarchy fits the ID theory just fine.

It only fits the ID theory "just fine" if you assert that ANY evidence no matter what it is supports the ID theory. And just what is false about a whale's or python's pelvis, cave fish eyes, flightless beetle wings, or any of the many other vestigial organs we know of? I also like how you excluded the twin nested hierarchy.

All of the known and verified evidence for evolution = similarities.

Which is also equal evidence for ID.

Except it isn't, because in the case of ID similarities are a non factor, they don't need to exist nor is it required that they don't.

Sure, the evidence of anything fits anything else if you ignore everything that doesn't.

ID squares with a few observations, common descent squares with all observations
