One of the best points made on Question Time

This was from Question Time broadcasted on Thursday 14th June and I think is one of the best and most truthful points an audience member has ever made to a politician. The panelists were all contenders for the Deputy Leadership - Peter Hain, Harriet Harman, Alan Johnson, Hazel Blears, Hilary Benn and John Cruddas.

@mridenine That guy is a complete hypocrite. Has he ever stopped to think that the 'all powerful' god he's devoted his life to worshiping might be in it for the wrong reasons?

It's not a weak or a trivial point.
Freud talked a load of nonsense about some things, but he was right about slips of the tongue being revealing. Unless someone's confused about what some long word means, word choice is NEVER an accident. It reveals routine and habitual patterns of thought. And vice versa - routine use of a word (like calling women bitch and ho') wears a metaphorical groove in the brain, grows habits of thought.
It's why we have "civil SERVANTS".

@Clearflight89 he got lucky? that is the worst youtube comment i have ever seen. no exageration.

people who are anti-religion like to point out how religion causes conflict and prejudice in the world, and are all too happy to declare what "free-thinkers" they are. And yet this man is being critizised and judged because of his religion, when he makes a comment nothing to do with religion at all. Comments like this (theres a lot for this video) do not portray the apparent "free-thought" you claim to hold.

What a pathetically trivial point to make, a weak argument from insignificant semantics. The government has the power of the executive and the power to introduce bills. They are in power. His comment is lightweight, and does little to undermine perceptions of the Church as being similarly lightweight and peripheral to our national discourse.
