    What happens to Christians aged over twenty-two?

    For the first eighteen years of a person's life, any version of Christianity they are presented with is going to be fake. Christianity for children involves pretending that Christians do not have legitimate disagreements on important matters. Once adulthood starts, any Christian who asks a...

    Chris Rock versus Will Smith

    Now is a good time for the anti-smacking lobbies to nail their colours to the mast.

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    Don't put words into people's mouths.

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    No. That is not the case.

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    You are welcome to potter along to the East End of London and take a look at wino/junkie charities like Spitalfields Crypt. I worked there for a year. Their view of the world is that it consists of one group: victims (winos, junkies and a handful of others), who have zero accountability towards...

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    A wino or junkie has no responsibilities at all. Nothing will ever be demanded of Captain Victim. However, suggest that a wino's or junkie's right to income support, night-shelter accommodation or endless handouts of food and clothing might not be worth providing any more and all hell will...

    Video: Debunking Every Anti-Communist Argument Ever

    I wouldn't watch a forty-minute video to hear a person's viewpoint in the first place. That said, if I had absolutely nothing to do for that amount of time, the chapter headings alone are enough to tell me that the author is not taking the debate seriously. I could watch some cake set instead.

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    Wrong. You can definitely have rights without responsibilities. Just take a look at children, asylum-seekers, people with 'mental-health issues', winos, junkies etc.

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    Water is a necessity for staying alive. How does calling it a universal human right change anything?

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    The question of the legitimacy of government is irrelevant to my original post. This is nothing to do with where law-making bodies get their authority from or where anyone thinks they should. It is to do with the fact that law-making bodies exist, whether you want them to or not.

    Universal human rights: nonsense on stilts.

    The concept of universal human rights is nonsense. A right can be given by a law-making body. The absence of a law against something means that it is a right until a law against it is introduced. That is all a right amounts to. Everything else described as 'my right' is a want. As more...

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    If the Commodore Amiga, the Atari ST and the Sinclair QL all evolved from the Apple Macintosh, how come they all existed in the shops at the same time?

    Chris Rock versus Will Smith

    If there is never any justification for violence, Chris Rock's remarks have nothing to do with anything related to Will Smith's behaviour. If Chris Rock's actions are somehow part of the discussion, then violence has justification under some circumstances. What those circumstances are is a...

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    The original question reminds me of a joke about creationists which it would not be permitted to tell on these forums. It's a shame, because it's quite a funny joke. EDIT: 'not be permitted to ask' changed to 'not be permitted to tell'

    Get real: climate change and funding

    I have discovered actual, real, verifiable scientific evidence that anthropogenic climate change is fake. Now all I need is for someone to publish my findings and enough funding to carry out further research. If only there were some kind of massively wealthy industry which would benefit from...

    Chris Rock versus Will Smith

    This piece of drivel from "Psychologist and minister, Rev Dr Jacqui Lewis, who has read Smith's book but has not treated the actor personally" can be found here: Oscars: What Will Smith's slap says about him - and us QUOTE: "We live in a time of violence: verbal, physical, emotional...

    Chris Rock versus Will Smith

    I've just been for a ride in my Tardis to a parallel universe in which Will Smith is white. Today's news has not covered anything from Ukraine.

    Chris Rock versus Will Smith

    It's the body which came up with the category of 'non-crime hate incident'.

    Chris Rock versus Will Smith

    Does anybody wish to express an opinion on this before Hollywood, social media or the UK's College Of Policing decides what the approved position should be?
