  • 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.

What can be asserted without evidence, can also be dismissed without evidence.

I'll tell you what's a problem for bible thumpin' fundies tho', Tiktaalik roseae.

These animals are either extinct or not yet found in the current era. Since 'evolutionists', nor creationist, have found living or fossil examples of these creatures (not even ancestors nor offspring), I don't understand the problem.

If there was some tangible evidence for these creatures, 'evolutionists' (i.e. the scientific community) would embrace it.

You have to understand where he's coming from. He takes the Bible literally. Period. If it says something, no matter how fantastical, it's true, regardless of evidence or plausibility.

So, in his mind, these animals actually exist (like a ten year old with an imaginary friend - just try and tell him his friend doesn't exist), they have yet to be discovered. Or maybe they just lived in another "dispensation," or something.

I watched an old movie the other day, "Cat Ballou". In it lee Marvin plays this washed up old sot of a gunfighter. He is broke, but really wants a drink.

So he tries this: Whenever there is a good idea, or good point made up comes his head, and he says "I'll drink to that!" and looks around hopefully to see who will buy him a drink. Everyone just ignores the old fool, like he is not even there. Not a bad idea.



That is kind of how all these silly announcements that the "bible pwns evolution" sound
We are just going along and.. Up pops Bible pwns evo!!!! Anybody impressed, you interested???

Looks around to see who will fall for it. Anything for some attention. Meanwhile everyone just goes about their business. They have heard this before.

I dunno.

This is a thread that really makes me think he's been putting everyone on all this time.

You would first have to prove that these animals ever existed before it was a problem for anybody.

Is a satyr what I think it is? A human torso mounted on goat or horse body?
No.

Remember the cute little cherubs that pose for Hallmark cards?

Well ... there's the world's version ... then there's God's version:



Something like that, anyway.

You forgot that talking donkey...and snake, for that matter.
Actually, I thought of both of those, but dismissed the donkey as a miraculous event, and the Genesis 3 serpent, in my opinion, was a dragon.

Nope -- science doesn't require proof; and even if it did, that's not my calling.

Another great thread AV.

To your list of species I would also add giants and hobbits, both problematic for fundamentalist evolutionists.

Evolutionist fundamentalists are afraid of the historical zoological cryptids revealed in the Bible.

If an atheist found the skeletal remains of a firebreathing dragon I contend he would either (a) rename it a pterosaur or (b) destroy the evidence.

Isn't it a little late for that? As if his thousands of non-contributing posts to the Crevo forum werent' enough to prove this guys just wasting his life and our time, the 200,000+ counting posts should be a dead giveaway.

Why would we destroy the evidence? It's not like fire-breathing dragons are an evolutionary nightmare.



Stick a pair of wings on that, and you've got yourself a dragon.

Since none actually existed, I contend that they do not. Besides, unicorns and dragons are just modern creatures with an artistic flourish (notwithstanding the fact that the Bible is somewhat silent on what these creatures actually are).
