  • 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

But you've often posted pictures that aren't real - like a car flying to the moon,

It wasn't flying to the moon and to this day people believe it was real.

Did you know that Gleason believed that the earth was a flat ?
Did you know that people once believed that illness was God's will and if you took medication to cure it you were going against God?

I watched the rest of it and he immediately goes off into la-la land with regards to distance between the bases. I've already pointed out how inaccurate the Gleason map is with regards to distance along the lines of latitude. It shows the Australian continent to be twice the width of the USA when in reality the USA is slightly wider, and the errors get exponentially worse the further South you go. The Gleason map is perfectly accurate if all you are dealing with is degrees of latitude and longitude, or if you are measuring distance along lines of longitude, but as soon as you compare distance along different lines of latitude it becomes complete rubbish. The guy doing the video is either trolling or is a complete moron.
The makers of the video are not morons or trolls, but scoundrels. They have 108,000 subscribers and 12 million views of their over 1000 videos. They are relying on the fact that a percentage of the population does not understand maps, projection, or basic geometry. I suspect that their subscriber list is very valuable to scammers, because is automatically sorts out the people who can be easily mislead.

I know, the movie was based on the Franklin expedition British expedition (1845–48.

All 129 crew members and officers of the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror perished under mysterious circumstances trying to find the Northwest Passage through Canada and to record magnetic information as a possible aid to navigation.

The Arctic is within 60 degrees latitude of the Ice walls exactly where the entrance too 'Summer Gate' is located.

Maybe the ship entered 'Summer Gate' never to be seen again.

The so called Northwest passage is in the Arctic, which is at the North Pole, the opposite end of the globe from Antarctica.

Don't forget the Antarctic encircles the flat earth.

Sir Issac Newton was a nut job.

Breakdown in 1693: Around his 50th birthday, Newton suffered a severe mental breakdown, experiencing insomnia, poor digestion, and paranoia. He accused friends like John Locke and Samuel Pepys of conspiring against him.

Mercury Poisoning: Studies of his hair after his death revealed high levels of mercury, which may have resulted from his intense, secretive, and sometimes dangerous experiments with alchemy. This likely contributed to his erratic behavior and mental instability later in life.

Personality: Throughout his life, he was described as, at times, vindictive, paranoid, and quick to fly into rages when his work was questioned.

In a north centred equidistant azimuthal projection of the globe. In a south centred equidistant azimuthal projection, the Arctic ocean encircles the flat earth.

He had a mental breakdown from 1675 through 1679. He lived from 1642 to 1727. You would dismiss all of his great work, because he suffered a mental illness for 4 of his 85 years?

This is all wrong, it is the Antarctic that circumferences the earth.

Yes as he also suffered from Bipolar.

He theorized gravity in 1666, nothing to worry about it's just a coincidence.

I suppose you haven’t read any of his works. They are not the works of a “nutjob.”

But you do know that the expedition was to find the NORTH passage which is in the artic (North Pole) not in Antarctica right? Why would you label your picture the summer passage for Antartica?

Actually I have, he was into all sorts inluding alchemy.

Sir Isaac Newton was a dedicated alchemist, spending more time on this pursuit than physics, driven by the search for the Philosopher's Stone to achieve transmutation and elixir of life,
Alchemy and chemistry had not been separated in Newton’s time, and much of his work set the foundations for modern chemistry.

Don't forget that Antarctica encircles the earth & summer gate is located 60 degrees latitude north.

Because that's where they were.

Viewing it as a spiritual path to understand God's creation, with his extensive, hidden writings revealing a scientific approach to "chemistry" that linked Hermetic tradition to modern chemistry. His alchemical work, though secret, involved rigorous experimentation, deciphering ancient texts, and potentially influenced his concepts of universal forces like gravity, bridging Renaissance occultism with 18th-century science.

It does not. Antartica is a continent by the South Pole. We’ve have explored it many times.
Because that's where they were.
Nope. Just because you say so does not make it true. Here is your challenge; prove it. And YouTube videos do not count.
