• 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.

  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Religion cannot work with science.

That is why they call them miracles, so they don't need science.

Science would prevent a miracle from occurring; but it's not strong enough.

If miracles left evidence behind, science would had to admit they exist.

Oddly, no evidence has been found for a world wide flood, or for animals talking, or for the other claimed miracles.

How do you figure?

If a world-wide flood left evidence behind, are you telling me scientists would have to admit it was a miracle that did it?

Yes, to believe in literal miracles is folly. Any allegorical meaning to be parsed out should be left to the religious.

No, we're telling you the religious would have to admit it never happened.

I think you mean *Conveniently. ;)

I contend that God, in His wisdom, removed it ... knowing that when the Scientific Method was invented, scientists would use it against Him.

Imagine if today, scientists found Noah's Ark (assuming it had been preserved)?

They would be all over it like flies on ... um ... raw meat, claiming it wasn't seaworthy.

Imagine if scientists found the tomb Jesus was placed in and found a body there (Joseph of Arimathea)?

I'm sure even if they found the Ark of the Covenant, it would be made into a movie.

"Science" has found God, when will it's followers catch up?

They can't.

The Scientific Method has placed a stumblingblock in their path.
