  • 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

And you found through a God-mocker! That’s your source. That tells me a lot about how low you prepared to go to try to support your claims. You can’t use God’s word so you use a God-mocker.

Like I said I used my own words at first.

I’m not accusing you of anything

Yes you are, you seem to think I am the enemy here & I'm not.

You are not an enemy, but supporting ridiculous ideas that can be easily disproved and not supported by the Bible gives ammunition to those who make fun of Christians. Why don’t you defend something as critical and the existence of Moses? There you have a wealth of information on the Internet that you can sift through to support the Bible and refute non-Christians.

Psalms 48:2
Isaiah 14:13
Jeremiah 1:14
Job 37:22

All these verses direct us to the North.
Well, here are the verses:

“Beautiful in elevation, The joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion on the sides of the north, The city of the great King.” (Ps 48:2 NKJV)

That verse is about Mount Zion in Jerusalem. It doesn't mention the North Pole, or a whirlpool and a magnetic rock causing tides.

“For you have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north;” (Isa 14:13 NKJV)

Again, no mention of the North Pole, or a whirlpool and a magnetic rock causing tides.

“Then the LORD said to me: “Out of the north calamity shall break forth On all the inhabitants of the land.” (Jer 1:14 NKJV)

The context is the coming captivity in Babylon, which was north of Israel. No mention of the North Pole, or a whirlpool and a magnetic rock causing tides.

“He comes from the north as golden splendor; With God is awesome majesty.” (Job 37:22 NKJV)

Yet again, no mention of the North Pole, or a whirlpool and a magnetic rock causing tides.


All the verses contain the word "north", and that seems enough for you to assume it means the North Pole.

Just did see post #529
And I have just answered your post 529, quoting the four verses, and showing that though they all mention the direction "north", not one of them mentions a whirlpool, a magnetic rock or the North Pole.

Mathew 7:8
Matthew 7:8 says:

““For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” (Mt 7:8 NKJV)

That verse doesn't even mention "north", let aloe a whirlpool or a magnetic rock or the North Pole.

Your own words were just a statement, not an explanation.
Yes you are, you seem to think I am the enemy here & I'm not.
You’re not the enemy but the person you commend most certainly is!

And stop taking just part of what I said. My full comment was "I'm not accusing you of anything that isn't already apparent from your posts"

Taking half of what I said to use against me reflects very badly on you.

Sorry - I sometimes find your posts of accusing me so over whelming, what else can I do ? Agree with you ? Plus I'm fed up having to defend myself from your accusations.
If you constantly start threads on the same subject with the same, nonsensical, statements/answers; what do you expect?

I'm sorry, but that's utterly ridiculous.
Seriously, make a New Year's resolution to learn to read the Bible.

Yes & in Revelation 4:3 didn't John see a throne that resembled the color of an emerald which could represent the Aurora Boreallis of the north pole.

But nothing to do with a magnetic rock or a giant whirlpool. You have to go to an anti-Christ for that!

And one has to support him to believe a word from NASA or the likes of.

@Apple Sky please read peoples posts properly & stop arguing against things that were never said or implied. You cannot use Scripture for your claims about a magnetic rock or giant whirlpool, so you have turned away from God and used God-mocker instead. This is a fact.

No, I have told you why I say flat earth is nonsense & it has nothing to do with NASA.

And to suggest one has to support a God-mocker is appalling!

No mention of his vision actually being the Aurora Borealis of the north pole.

gravity isn't weaker, centrifugal inertia is increased. also at sea level you're further away from earths center of mass because sea level isn't a sphere. as a result, the difference in gravity is hardly .3% iirc. but enough to be measurable 150 years ago.

these terms are pedantic but are required when reasoning with flat earth'ers.
I mean the effect of gravity is weaker, but yes.
would love to hear your explanation how the earth could be flat but the tides and the moon have an extremely predicable 19 year long cycle that even the greeks had figured out when they made the antikithra mechanism.
And also how we can predict eclipses with pinpoint accuracy. I experienced both recent solar eclipses, and they started exactly on time.

Nothing there to support your notion of a magnetic rock or giant whirlpool either. Nor anything about aurora borealis either.

Also there is no indication as to where you got that quote from.

You’re just inserting your own interpretation onto Scripture. In other words you are adding to what God’s Word actually says by speculation and not anything like factual evidence.

A magnetic rock, a giant whirlpool & salty sea water.

The giant whirlpool sucks in the seawater every six hours then spews the seawater out for the next six hours and so it continues there on, & this is what causes the tides.
All we need is a photo of it.
