  • 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.

Is the Rapture credible?

The KJV is written in English to be specific, it is written in Jacobean English it is definitely not written in Hebrew and in Greek. you are of course correct. There is no Greek word that is spelled "rapture".
An all can used internet to see the Greek and Hebrew word you want to. see its spelling and what it means in. the

Greek and Hebrew text at any. time that you want day . or night and one showing. the Greek o r Hebrew text has
any where from 8000. to 20,OOO. at any. one time ,. and it shows the English with the Greek or Hebrew , and its meaning. called BIBLE HUB. !!

MS-13 Gang Member Kilmar Abrego Garcia to be Deported to African Country of Eswatini

An illegal immigrant wife beating human trafficking child molester. That was what he was convicted of.
You are doing nothing for your credibility when you have to say things that you know aren't true to try to support the administration. We know Trump does it. Why do you feel the need?

Who is the Antichrist?

Randy, the little horn becomes...

the prince that shall come, then
becomes the Antichrist, then
becomes the revealed man of sin, then
becomes the beast-king

Yes, I've heard this from you before. Don't know if there are steps to identifying the Little Horn, but at this point I can't say you're wrong. All I know is that they're all the same person, and likely all derived from Dan 7. The 1st reference to Antichrist in the Bible is, I believe, Daniel's Dream in Dan 7?

How is it that the Catholic Church is evil?

although I personally have twice been in Protestant countries when Guy Fawkes Day was celebrated

We don’t celebrate it in the US, and I would also note the Wachowski Brothers in the film V for Vendetta did Roman Catholics a service by subverting that event and turning Guy Fawkes into a heroic figure for millennials.

How is it that the Catholic Church is evil?

comes from second century Protoevangelium of James.

No, it comes from the Orthodox liturgy, and thence from the Truth, which in turn the Protoevangelion tried to summarize, in the same way that there are books that summarixe other events connected with the early church referred to in the liturgy but not unambiguously in the Scripture itself.

That said had the early church known of the problem of crypto-Nestorianism they would have probably put the Protoevangelion in the canon.

It should be noted that the liturgy itself was always understood to be protocanon in the most protocanonical sense - precanon you might call it. The importance of a scriptural text is directly proportionate to how often and under what conditions the liturgy uses it, which is why Psalm 151 is canonical but deuterocanonical, since it is not part of the liturgical Psalter in the ancient liturgies, that is to say, it was never appointed to be sung in church, unlike the other 159, so if one sings it one does so as a supplemental devotion.

WE ARE AT WAR! Trump approves military action against Latin American cartels classified as terrorist organizations.

I wonder why he hasn't been charged with purjury.
He because he didn’t perjure himself. Bro Oompa just doesn’t know how to read autopsy reports, lol.

Nope. Show me in the autopsy that Floyd's death was a result of police intervention. Please! Prove me wrong! Have you even looked at the Toxicology report in paragraph VI?
The first line… “cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint and neck compression.”

I looked at the toxicology report… In fact, I used to read autopsy reports daily for work and thus am super, super familiar with them. In fact, I trained people on how to read autopsy reports in not one but two jobs; one at a police/911 dispatch center, the other for an aeromedical transport through a level one trauma center. Ready to get schooled?

His Fentanyl is listed as 11, which to people who don’t read autopsies regularly had them all grasping at their pearls, but then you read the rest of the report. It also states in the reference section: “it is reported that patients lost consciousness at mean plasma levels of fentanyl of 34 ng/mL when infused with 75 mcg/Kg over a 15 min period; peak plasma levels averaged 50 ng/mL” and that in cases of poisoning or non regular users, they may have a reaction at as low as 3 ng/mL. So, for this test, if you have somebody who died with only 3ng/mL, acute poisoning is the suspected cause (either it’s tainted, mis-processed, or they’re basically allergic to it) depending on their norfent score. In all others, acute overdose symptoms start at 34 ng/mL and tend to reach near-universal mortality at 50 ng/mL.

He was at an 11. Well under acute overdose and well over tainted/poisoning, especially given his norf score of 5.6. If he had a 5.6 and a 3, it would be a poisoning/OD. Otherwise the OD symptoms on this test begin at 34 and max out to near 100% death at north of 50.

In short, he had fentanyl in his system, enough for a mild buzz and moderate impairment, not enough for death. He either took a small dose recently (unlikely given it was in his urine as well) or he’d taken a larger dose… I’m doing rough math here, but it seems… Maybe 8 to 14ish hours prior…? The math portion to figure toxicity decline was never my thing… I had an Excel for that. His Methamphetamine score was a 19 which is a complete and total nothingburger. Not even enough to contribute to a buzz, looking at the test thresholds that say 200-600 is where impairment begins and toxicity is above 600. It just means he used at some point… And not even particularly recently.

Hence what three doctors testified in court, that they weren’t even secondary or third contributing factors. Primary was choking, secondary was heart/cardiac issues related to a pre-existing condition (one he may not have known he had? It’s unclear), third is anemia (also seems he didn’t know he had it). Other factors included COVID and drugs that impaired decision making and above legal levels, but well short of toxicity.
