  • 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.

Take for example Hugh Ross, who in a book that was hailed as making peace between young-earth creationists and old-earth crea-tionists10 tells about his conversion to Christianity in which it took him two hours just to read the first 35 verses of Genesis. At the age of 17 he claims he could see parallels between what the evolutionists taught and the details of those early verses, including the possibility that the word for day, yom, could mean more than a 24 hour day. He apparently has not changed since that time—so much so that he accuses young-earth creationists of disbelieving in physical reality. What a way to make peace!

No, not likely. After they label all creationists as ignorant, uneducated or "clueless" it's hard to swallow that old hellish pride and admit there exists a possibility for the biblical account of man's origin.
