Let us also not forget that sodomy was a crime in America until 1961 (and beyond in some states) and homosexual acts were illegal in UK until 1967. Up until 50 years ago the majority of people in our western 'civilised' countries were more strongly against homosexuality than Kir...

The problem is that In the earliest manuscripts of Mark (the oldest gospel) there are no appearances of the resurrected Jesus. We know that this is a big problem for the Christian Church because they felt the need to make up various different endings to Mark that do have Jesus appearing after...

@aross0054

Where in the Bible does it say that God hates the sin not the sinner?

The Bible requires males indulging in physical homosexual acts to be stoned to death - that is OT law. Whereas Jesus (assuming that he actually existed) clarified/modified certain OT laws (eg. on divorce and the Sa...

@readytorock865

You don't 'decide' to believe in something - in the same way that you don't decide whether to like the taste of chocolate or not. You either believe in something or you don't.

I'm interested to know though - what information about God did you have in your possession when you 'd...

@Sato TM3

You also need to remember that Germany was actually defeated in the early stages of the war on the Marne by the French and a very small British contingent. They totally failed to take France in 1914 and thereafter there was a stalemate where defending (as Germany did) was much easier th...

The only thing wrong with the Treaty of Versailles was that it was not hard enough on Germany. They were the primary instigator of a war that almost bankrupted the greater part of Europe and caused nearly 10 million deaths.

What allowed the Nazis to rise and caused WW2 wasn't the treaty - it was...

This was as intelligent and articulate a performance as I've seen anyone give on Hardtalk. Very impressive.

@Resenbrink

If you are a believer in God you would presumably agree that if something was being passed off as Gods word, that wasn't in fact God's word, then God would wish that false word to be ridiculed. So my question is - what makes you believe that the Bible represents the error free word o...

Spot on. That was the thing about music in the 80s - amid all the zany haircuts, daft clothes and focus on image, were created timeless classics like this. This song stands on its own merits as one of the best of the last 30 years.

@steelworth12

Ajax did die at Troy - he goes mad and kills himself. His death isn't covered in the Iliad but in a later cycle of works that are now partially lost.

Incidentally the Iliad itself ends with the funeral of Hektor - all the stuff about the Trojan horse and the fall of Troy doesn't ...

@koufojimas

Actually Ajax supposedly does die at Troy (but not in the Iliad). He goes mad and kills himself. The Iliad does portray Hektor as the good guy but not quite so completely as the movie does - in the book he does have some very human faults too.

The movie does depart fairly heavily f...

@fagiu

Yeah - that was a habit that unfortunately he took with him as he moved up the divisions. The no fat version of Duran in the early and mid 70's though was formidable indeed. You have to feel sorry for someone like Esteban De Jesus, who had he not been unlucky enough to overlap Duran's ti...

@TomfromExeter

They basically made Britain give up their alliance with Japan in exchange for US participation in global naval limitation talks.

Mussolini was a facist leader but he recognized Hitler for what he was and initially wanted nothing to do with him. It was only when Britain effectivel...

@fagiu

Leonard was the favourite for sure but Duran winning a 'huge upset'? You had an all time great LWT champ who vacated his title undefeated and remained undefeated as he moved up to fight a young and fairly inexperienced welter champ. The odds were 9-5 shortening to 7-5 just before the fig...

@cboch11

Well answered.

It does raise another issue though - Paul's belief that Adam was a real person that existed in the past. If he did believe this, and his writings suggest he did, then you must ask if Paul was genuinely writing under God's inspiration, with the Holy Spirit giving him wisd...

Star pretty much had it right here. IF you believe that the Bible is the word of God (and by extension that God exists) then:

1) You cannot reconcile evolution with scripture they are incompatible.

2) Homosexuality (or male physical homosexual acts to be specific) is against OT law.

3) Loving you...

SRV's guitar work here is sublime

@EdwardRommel

Agree 100%. If Germany didn't actually start WW1 then they certainly changed a simple conflict into a World War - and did so knowingly and willingly because they felt that they had the strength to win it.

I can't see why so many people seem to think that Versailles was so unfair on...

@FlaviusConstantius

"You're also overlooking that the gap between light heavy and heavy was not what it is now. Light-heavies like Norfolk, Gibbons, Loughran, Greb had many fights against heavyweights".

I'm not overlooking it - you are. If I were to say that GT beat 3 out of the 4 guys you named...
