    Can a person be a Christian and also believe in evolution?

    Why don't you tell us? You should be the expert on your own view of evolution.

    Can a person be a Christian and also believe in evolution?

    You are not addressing the issue I raised when I used this illustration: micro-evolution vs macro-evolution. Therefore, your response here is a red herring logical fallacy. It is fallacious reasoning because it switches topics, but makes it look like it's a continuation of the topic. It isn't. Oz

    Can a person be a Christian and also believe in evolution?

    Again, you provide no evidence for the content of: 'Biblical Christianity'; 'paganistic evolution'; 'no other type of evolution but that which is paganistic'. I'm pleased indeed that you labelled this as 'my opinion' and not 'proof I've sought and found in a number of sources of evidence to...

    Can a person be a Christian and also believe in evolution?

    You seem to have forgotten how my post began: 'Assertions prove nothing'. Since this is a Christian forum, I expected that opinions would be supported by evidence - biblical evidence. My expectation was too high, it seems, from your perspective. In my understanding, opinions are not worth a...

    Can a person be a Christian and also believe in evolution?

    Butterfly, I think we need to differentiate between micro-evolution and macro-evolution. Micro-evolution represents change within the species. I eat white, pink and black grapes. They represent change within the species - different varieties - but they are all grapes. Macro-evolution defines...

    Can a person be a Christian and also believe in evolution?

    Triumph, Assertions prove nothing. I need some biblical evidence to support your claim. I am not an evolutionist but your statements read more like your opinion than those with reasoned biblical support. Oz

    Gun Control

    I hope you are using hyperbole here. However, I understand the threat of the Internet in importing guns via post, courier or other means - over or around the wall Trump wants to build on the Mexican-US border. Oz

    Gun Control

    Josho, On another forum I advocated the Australian gun control model for the USA to control the use of rifles to help prevent the mass slaughters in the USA. I was shot down in flames, being the only person on that thread to advocate gun control. Joe Hockey is a former Aust MP and treasurer of...

    The Written Word

    Butterfly, Why is 'Scripture' from, say 2 Tim 3:16-17 and what Jesus stated, "I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture: ‘He who shared my bread has turned against me’ (John 13:18 NIV) not from the only Bible/Scripture...

    The Written Word

    soul man, I find this to be confusing language. The problem might be my Aussie lingo and Aussie accent, but your sentences here are convoluted, i.e. difficult to follow. What does 'a matter one the individuals interpretation' mean? What is the 'direct message that we have to get fixed in us as...

    GodsGrace, Yes, these crocodiles have a menu of fish, anything that swims in the water, or anything that goes near the water, including human beings. There are differences between alligators and crocodiles. Here is a gruesome event, showing what a crocodile can do to a human being: Crocodiles...

    No, GodsGrace, That's a stupid male feeding a man-eating salt water crocodile. This is what some do here in Australia in the far north of the country where these vicious beasts exist in salt water rivers: Why don't you take a read of this story? Human remains found in 4.3-metre crocodile...

    Brock, It's great to see you here, Brock. Is Phoenix a bit cool at this time of the year? Even though we have been having very hot and humid weather here in Brisbane (I live in the sub-tropics - Florida weather), we've had some rain and cooler weather in the last couple of days. What kinds of...

    Blame God?

    Job thought it was a great benefit to him. This is how he put it in Job 42: Then Job replied to the Lord: 2 ‘I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted. 3 You asked, “Who is this that obscures my plans without knowledge?” Surely I spoke of things I did not...

    Welcome to CyB, Brock. I'm pleased you've joined us from Phoenix AZ. May this be a great time for us both to grow in our faith. How did you learn about this forum? I'm from Brisbane, Australia. Blessings, Oz

    Why the fall had to occur

    Dc, One of the finest explanations to this question I have read is that by James Anderson, Why Did God Allow the Fall?(The Gospel Coalition, June 27 2017) Would it be appropriate to examine each point made by Anderson? Oz

    Resurrection ?

    twinc, Why don't you present us with a couple verses from Scripture that address this topic so we can discuss it in context? Try 1 Cor 15. Oz

    It is not in the bible.....sola scripture

    Jun, What's the meaning of 'forum'? The Merriam-Webster dictionary definition is: Definition of forum plural forums also fora play \ˈfȯr-ə\ 1 a : the marketplace or public place of an ancient Roman city forming the center of judicial and public business b : a public meeting place for open...
