  • 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.

I just got it.
Just like a ton of bricks.

I see the light guys, you were right.

If I cant come up with a hard definition of ''kind'', then most assuredly my neighbors dog Foofer's great, great, great, great grand-pups wont be pups at all, they'll be walking talking dog-men who play pool and have their portraits done.

Yeah, sorry follower, I forgot that you dont like to play these "games" (IE discussion).

Doesnt the fact that gods book doesnt actually give a good definition for a kind make you curious as to what else was left out?
A few years back when into evolution, yes.

Now that I know my God better, it doesnt bother me in the least.

If you're trying to pass creationism off as science, then you do need to define your basic terms. How can you do research into something when everybody has a different definition and nobody really knows where lines are drawn? Of course, if you aren't trying to pass creationism off as science, then your definitions can be as vague and fluid as you like. However, I thought the whole point of this board was for creationists to argue the validity of their science as opposed to evolution. To do that, you need to be able to define a term as basic as "kind."
