Free Republic is a fringe right-wing Christian fundamentalist site... or so they say... and they might even be right.
We don't go for any of that godless left-wing big government socialist malarkey. And we do put our faith and trust in God, not government. We are pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Family, pro-Country and pro-Liberty.
We do not believe that government or science knows what's best for us or our children. We will make our own decisions thank you very much.
Every once in a while some group of posters get together and try to bend Free Republic to their will. Now, we tend to be pretty free-wheeling around here and will take a lot of guff and a lot of obnoxious insults from a lot of people, but eventually a breaking point is reached.
For example, when a group of RINO lovers recently banded together to try to force FR to accept an abortionist/gay rights RINO as our presidential candidate, they soon found themselves on the outs.
And a few years ago a group of evolutionists tried to force FR over to their way of thinking and they soon found themselves on the outs.
FR is a pro-God, pro-Creator, pro-Life, pro-Liberty site.
And now we have yet another group of Darwinists trying to have their Darwinist way with us. Well, as I've said before what doesn't kill us will only make us stronger.
Darwin Central has again declared war on FR. They have ping lists and email lists and will try to pull away as many FReepers as they possibly can. So be it. Those who would rather go with Darwin, please go. I sure as hell won't try to stop you.
FR will remain a pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Liberty, pro-Creator conservative site.
We wholeheartedly believe that our unalienable rights are a gift from God our Creator not from man or government. And no man, no government will ever deprive us of same.
Keep your powder dry.
Because if God simply creates something, He knows precisely what He is creating, and KNOWS that this is good. He does not NEED to see if it's good or not. So either this phrase in Genesis is redundant, or it means more than YEC is willing to admit.
I know a lot of you girls don't like dresses (very often anyway), and that's fine. You do what you feel you must do. But I gotta tell you that the most beautiful sight I've ever seen is a woman in a simple house dress.
Blah blah blah. Projection. Good to know. Now I won’t bother reading or replying to your posts.
It’s funny how some posters are so sensitive when a real discussion is wanted and they can’t handle it.
LOL, what could it be?
PHD, lawyer, giving money to FR years before bothering to sign up, he is an impressive guy.
I’d say you can’t make this kind of stuff up, but....
That's the owners job and not yours.
“You do what you feel you must do. But I gotta tell you that the most beautiful sight I’ve ever seen is a woman in a simple house dress.”
As documented here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kliy32YWFcU
Read them through sometime and think about what we know about bacteria.
Or sterile offspring from hybridization....
Leviticus 19:19 “ ‘Keep my decrees.
“ ‘Do not mate different kinds of animals.
“ ‘Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed.
“ ‘Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material.
There was also the concept of allowing the ground to rest and go fallow.
[metmom] "What's that supposed to mean?"
It means that these mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology are matching parts of a bigger picture. Understanding this picture allows us to develop technology and rationally invent therapeutic agents. Understanding this picture, however, has an undesirable (to some) side effect - it leads to conclusions incompatible with beliefs such as Young Earth Creationism.
"It was [the dominion] already mans by God's decree."
Sure, and no earlier than 100 years ago people used to die of trivial pneumonia, childbirth infections or infected wounds. In addition to God's decree, we need practical MEANS to gain the dominion, and these means were developed together with modern science. Again, evolutionary biology came as matching and necessary part of the package.
misguided according to whom?
Really? What if one of your little group posted that? Would you say the same thing? Or would you encourage them in their study of the Bible?
GolfingRam:
You took 10 months off of work to study the Bible? Hey if you’re independently wealthy, more power to you. I’ve been attending Bible Study for a few years, once a week at night, and half the time I can’t make it because real life interferes.
Well, Sir, if you choose to be offensive, here is my matching reply: it’s a pity that you can’t preach your Young Earth Cretinism 100 years ago, to people dying of conditions we now routinely cure.
LOL! ok. :) I’ll check my posts because I surely don’t remember what I posted, lol.
Merry Christmas if we don’t wind up on the same thread before then.
Hiv/Aides was dealt with quite well at the turn of the 1900’s

If they posted it as a way of saying “I know more than you do”, then yeah I would say the same thing.
And I would encourage them as well. Also, I would encorage people, wealthy or not, to make Bible study a priority, regarless of “real life” commitments.
There are also some very good online and distance learning classes from Moody Bible Institute that can be done at home on your own schedule. Check them out.
Please explain how one can "take over" anything related to science on this forum. Can not anyone who wishes start a thread on most any topic?
And a Merry Christmas to you.
It is because of what FR stands for that we will always be attacked. In the end, good ALWAYS triumphs over evil. When we are attacked, we should NEVER be deterred or discouraged. If God be for us, who can be against us?
