  • 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

Like @Kathleen30 said, 'Or we end up throwing the baby out with the bath water If we evaluate all our histories the same way simply because they be non Christians.'
There is no baby in Eric "the idiot" Dubay's bath. It's all foul water.

Personally, I have no idea.
But so what?
We use the calendar by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582 which replaced the Julian calendar that was not consistent with the seasons and year.

Nothing, I already knew all about f/e.
If you did, you would have no trouble explaining how things work on a flat earth, like flights from Sydney to L.A. and Santiago.

I wouldn't call Eric an idiot, he knows a lot about stuff & as Kathrine said, 'why throw the baby out with the bath water ?

Here we go again, what is it about these flights, I thought @contratodo had answered you.

Phil that makes no sense. How often are non Christian sources quoted . Such as the monumental work of Flavius Josephus. Does that make us Christ rejecting Jews ? No. And along with many other ancient Roman writers with a varying array of other non Christian sources in verifying Christian topics . Doesn’t make anyone lesser a Christian for quoting them. Yes Eric Dubay Is certainly a non Christian and is very sarcastic one when it comes to Christianity. And that comes out more clearly in live talk back shows that he does from time to time. He is much involved in yoga and eastern mysticism just as David Icke is. But that doesn't mean we throw everything out they say . Or we end up throwing the baby out with the bath water If we evaluate all our histories the same way simply because they be non Christians. Yours Kathleen
Of course it makes sense - when we have ample proof that the earth is a globe from eyewitness testimony of Christians, and somebody (another Christian) turns to a pagan God-mocker for support against them. It would be the equivalent of the followers of Jesus giving eyewitness testimony that He has risen and somebody (another follower of Jesus) using a pagan to support a claim that the testimonies of His resurrection are lies.

And Dubay doesn’t verify Christianity in any way.

"Knowing a lot about stuff" is not the same as being truthful and a good Christian witness and example.

Yes, but I think @Apple Sky was asking who it was that decided that Sunday should be named after the sun, Monday after the moon and so on.
That's the bit I don't know.

That's all you're bothered about b/c Eric is a f/e supporter & clever with it, and I suppose it has nothing to do with his beliefs.

“Knows a lot of stuff”? Yeah, he knows a lot of stuff like how to mock God. And it’s not about throwing the baby out with the bath water. It’s throwing out the filthy ditch water where all the waste resides (and that’s being polite!)

Clever? He’s a God-mocker and your continued defence of him is very poor judgement on your part.

Can you not see what you are doing by defending him? You accuse Christians of lying, Christians who support and give testimony of the true gospel of Christ in their lives, and you claim a pagan God-mocker is telling the truth when all he he does is deny both their eyewitness testimonies of the shape of the earth and their testimonies about Jesus.

He pretends to, but he really doesn't. None of what he claims stands up to scrutiny.
I'm being generous when I refer to hm as an idiot.
as Kathrine said, 'why throw the baby out with the bath water ?
and as I said, the only thing in his bath is waste water.

"Knowing a lot about stuff" is not the same as being truthful and a good Christian witness and example.

So when a person knows a lot about stuff, but not being a Christian, means we should ignore what they have to say ?
I'm sure there are plenty in the world like this today.

Can you not see what you are doing by defending him?

I'm not defending the guy, I just listen to what he has to say which makes a whole lot of sense to me.

He doesn’t know a lot about the shape of the earth. Or if he does, he knows full well he’s grifting.

You are the one calling people liars because you claim they are Freemasons.

You are defending him. And not only that, you’re promoting him. You are like a shining billboard for his videos. You tell us to watch his videos because “he knows a lot about stuff”. And if we do, we find he mocks God.

How can Dubay be an authority on God’s creation when he openly mocks God? His philosophy is pagan. That’s his influence. That’s why he says what he does about God’s creation. And you’ve fallen for his tricks merely because he agrees with your belief about flat earth.

No you don’t hear them out. You post videos of flat earthers mocking anything to do with a concept of a globe earth by denouncing the proponents as Freemasons. And you believe it.

That’s the amount of ‘hearing them out’ you do.
