  • 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.

Not could have been used to cause a global flood, was the result of a global flood. Regarding the water that is.
Then why isn't there enough water for the event to occur in the first place as Arikay previously demonstrated here?:

So, I take it asking for you to support your claims is a bit too much. Hmm, I guess I wasn't expecting much. :)
Indeed. The past few pages have been nothing but very short replies consisting of "I'm right because the Bible says so" rather than actually demonstrating that to be so. Familiar behavior.

I will assume you didnt mean the double negative.

You said this,
"The proof is on a level that you will not accept, as it is all God based."

Lucaspa is a christian, and he does not accept your "proof" of a global flood. Thus, if your "proof" is god based, and lucaspa does not accept it, then you are saying that lucaspa is not god based, and thus, not with god.

I am hoping this is not what you ment.

Actually it's not particularly entertaining. It's annoying, if anything and it's the same thing you did last time you entered a flood discussion. Do you have anything substansive to add here or are you going to continue to claim automatic infallibility?

Okay. Point me to the biblical explanation for why there were no cats in Australia prior to white settlement/invasion.

Yeah, quite a few pages and yet we have yet to see any supporting evidence for his claims.

I would be curious what the christian point of view is about making claims that one refuses to back up, but continues to say that its true.

thats good that I misunderstood. But If one looks at what you said literally, you just called many christians false christians. But I guess I misunderstood what you ment. :) :)

So, what did you mean? Why does your "proof" come from god, and the "proof" that christians found that disproves the literal flood not come from god?

Assuming this is in response to the cat question, you were the one who claimed that every piece of evidence could be looked at as support for or explained by the global flood.

Now I have presented you with a piece of evidence and you do not seem to have an explanation for it.

Since you supposedly have such a good line through to Him, how about you ask God and then post the answer?

It should be a simple enough question for God to answer: why were there no cats in Australia when white settlers/invaders got here?
