Robert McKee: the new Aristotle? 1:37pm on 21 Apr 2009 Thanks for that William - definitley someone i'm intrigued to learn more about.
Was Charles Darwin a racist? 07:55am on 13 Feb 2009 Well said William but I fear the DUP are more interested in creating a theocracy than listening to reasoned argument.
Catching up ... 3:42pm on 12 Feb 2009 Heres another one you might of missed William.

Father, forgive me . . . 4:17pm on 27 Jan 2009 To quote Father Ted:
"The money was just resting in my account!"
Person of the Year: The Final Day 02:39am on 01 Jan 2009 All things considered, I think it has to be Obama. Definitley man of the year - just for what he has come to represent, regardless of whether he lives up to the hype or not.
One third of teachers support creationism in schools 5:15pm on 11 Nov 2008 I wouldn't mind creationism / ID being debated in school as long as every other creation myth is given the same amount of time but that isn't going to happen.
So if ID wants to get on the science curriculum it has to earn its place. Why should ID bypass the process that every other scientific theory has to go through before making it in to our text books?
There is probably no God ... 8:53pm on 07 Nov 2008 thanks Graham - enjoy your weekend.
There is probably no God ... 4:37pm on 07 Nov 2008 -gveale

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you here, just interested to know which standard text books you are using as you source. As some of your argument sounds like special pleading.
In fact, Brian - I'd be interested in your sources as well.
I find this an endlessly fascinating topic. A lot of claims are made for the historicity of Jesus - but I’d like to know is there any consensus amongst biblical scholars ? (believers and non believers)
The Battle of Pennsylvania 11:14am on 04 Nov 2008 I never knew Mary P was an atheist.
Was there a big deal made of it at the time?
Anybody know any other Norn iron "celebs" who have outed themselves?
Sorry William, but this is going more off topic than your pottery post.
There is probably no God ... 09:58am on 04 Nov 2008 #92

??
its not a problem for me either - i was just throwing it out there as a line of enquiry for the theists to respond to, from what i can gather i think we were making pretty much the same point.
