Delusional! The man is a verifiable nutter who thinks that this planet is only six thousand years old...I had wondered if he might, what would he be like?

Imagine not believing the world started billions of years ago with a Big Bang that must mean I’m a nutter tooDelusional! The man is a verifiable nutter who thinks that this planet is only six thousand years old...
You certainly would be if thinking that; Earth formed by the agglomeration of matter, not an explosion. *Imagine not believing the world started billions of years ago with a Big Bang that must mean I’m a nutter too
your entitled to believe that I’m entitled to believe in creation as is Edwin. That doesn’t make him a nutterYou certainly would be if thinking that; Earth formed by the agglomeration of matter, not an explosion. *

Quite right, we're all free to believe what we choose and I'm sure you share my hope that long may it be so.your entitled to believe that I’m entitled to believe in creation as is Edwin. That doesn’t make him a nutter
Oh I'd forgotten about thatDelusional! The man is a verifiable nutter who thinks that this planet is only six thousand years old...
You are right I am a Christian, I believe Jesus died for my sins, I have asked for forgiveness and one day I will go to heaven. There is no point quoting scripture as you do not believe the bible which is up to you. I don’t call you a nutter for not believing what I believe so I think you should afford me the same. History will prove which one of us was right. Have a good dayQuite right, we're all free to believe what we choose and I'm sure you share my hope that long may it be so.
But... being 'entitled' to believe something doesn't make it true, does it? I don't know or care what your religion / delusion of choice is, but I'm pretty certain that you'll claim to be a Christian - apologies if not. But, that being so, you'll regard the animist religions from some parts of the world as entirely wrong from start to finish, yet some people believe in them as deeply and wholly as you do yours - so we can probably agree that belief in something does not necessarily equate to its being true.
Therefore we must make the best use of our critical faculties and the information available to us to establish what is true - I'm fairly sure that we're still in agreement to this point, but I'd guess not for much longer... because you seem to place more weight on a much plagiarised and self-contradictory set of texts that stem from the Bronze Age and which all rational evidence contradicts, than on the entirety of what empirical science and objective, rational observation explain.
The problem religionists have when rejecting science and its method, is that if they accept that 1 + 1 = 2, all of the rest has to follow. And accepting science in every other way, while irrationally trying to make exceptions for the supernatural and superstitions - faiths, if you like - is what makes people nutters.
I think most people can agree there likely was a Jesus & he most likely died on a cross, whether he was the son of God or an early Scientologist is debatable & we all have our own opinions on that.You are right I am a Christian, I believe Jesus died for my sins, I have asked for forgiveness and one day I will go to heaven.

Partial insanity I can work withI think most people can agree there likely was a Jesus & he most likely died on a cross, whether he was the son of God or an early Scientologist is debatable & we all have our own opinions on that.
Where the craziness comes in is trying to believe & convince others of this 6000 year old figure, that's on a par with the flat earth brigade & is a worrying sign of partial insanity!

I sometimes question whether Christians should be in politics as it is a dirty business. I’m not here to defend all the dup has done whether right or wrong. My main objection was calling someone a nutter because of their beliefs.you are entitled to your views, what you are not entitled to is force those views on others, which the DuP is doing. It wouldn't be so bad if they were true Christians truly following the word of god. but they not, they pick out selected text from the bible enforcing their "views", while disregarding any thing that doesn't suit their needs
Yes there are things which are open to interpretation, however other things Gods word is crystal clear onIt's always important to remember that there are over seven billion potential versions of the Bible out there. Because a book (or collection of scripts and letters) does not read itself. It can only be seen through the lens of the reader.
If someone's beliefs are crazy, it's a perfectly reasonable thing to call him a nutter.I sometimes question whether Christians should be in politics as it is a dirty business.

Evidence for that? Loads of evidence exists for humans having written what they claim to be the words of a 'God', but you'll have to supply us with hard evidence of a 'divine' being having written something - or recorded it on video, audio etc. - for your assertion to stand.Yes there are things which are open to interpretation, however other things Gods word is crystal clear on
Surely if you disagree with their views don’t vote for them ?you are entitled to your views, what you are not entitled to is force those views on others, which the DuP is doing.

I don't think that everyone who believes different things to me is a nutter, there is plenty of scope for differing opinion in the real world; I do think that people with imaginary friends are barking.What you think is crazy I don’t think is crazy. It still isn’t acceptable to call someone a nutter who believes something different from you. You know as well as I do that I can’t provide hard and fast evidence of that. I am a simple farmer not a theological scholar. I can’t see the wind, but I know it is there and I can see it’s affects: What I find intriguing is that you spend a lot of time arguing against God and religion? Maybe deep down God is speaking to you?
What ho! Thought you'd join in, agree with that first bit...What nonsense. All politicians are in the business of forcing their views on others once elected. They only get elected if people support their views...
