• 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.

Indeed, what have the Romans ever done for us? How dare they take from us more than our specie. How dare they tax our money.

What are they going to do to us in the future though? I read an article which said all African giraffes are considered one species, but there are some scientists endeavoring to classify all giraffes into six separate species. So you take one healthy population, divide it roughly by six, and you've now got six endangered species. :o

Unfortunately, to see the injustice of this requires us to free the shackles of our minds! More than anarchy, to see this takes anomie!

No, no, I hate those stupid Japanese cartoons.

I'm not much for stuffed dead animals, so I'm against it.

For the record everyone, technically, crawfish is anti-teddy bear. Boooo!!!

if you've got tens of thousands of pictures on your computer are you just going to dump them into 'My Pictures' and then have to sort through them? No, you'll probably create subfolders to organize them, same goes along with the way we organize biology.

98, did you read the posts on this thread that talk about a nested hierarchy vs. one with a lot of "crossed lines"? Do you understand the differences between organizing designed vs evolved items, and how the possible organizational schemes can clearly detect design?
