• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

The universe at the end of this sentence.

Yep, I just like trying to figure out How it happened.

So when the question of 'how' is unanswered the answer that 'God did it' is insvalid to you, even though you believe that's exactly what happened?

Yes an "Who Answer" on a "How Question" is an Invalid Answer, as it doesn't answer the "How question".

Where exactly do you expect to find the answer to 'how'? You believe in God, science discounts God, sooooo....:confused:

No Science doesn't discount God, science can't test for God.
So we find the answer by looking ,learning and testing.

Science absolutely discounts God. As you say, science can't test for God, therefore He is not a considered factor in science.

Seriously, you don't know this? :confused:

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

(That's Who, now How)
Please set your Ph.D. aside and read the chapter.

Is that hard to ask?

I mean, I know you are an educated man, but I promise not to hold that against you, if you can come up with the right answer.

Strong hint: While you're looking in Genesis 1, look for a verb, not a noun.

I'm looking for a specific word in Genesis 1 that answers your question.

Can you tell me what it is?
