Comments on: A clarification on children in detention http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/07/02/comments-corrections-clarifications-and-cckups-30/ now with extra source Sun, 12 Feb 2012 02:48:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Hugh (Charlie) McColl http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/07/02/comments-corrections-clarifications-and-cckups-30/#comment-30268 Hugh (Charlie) McColl Thu, 02 Jul 2009 22:21:25 +0000 http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/07/02/comments-corrections-clarifications-and-cckups-30/#comment-30268 Marcus Vernon suggests we "drop the use of all academic titles in your comments section" because they don't mean much. Fair enough. Can I suggest that since Marcus addresses some debaters of Christianity as "atheistic" he consult his own internal logic mechanisms and drops the use of all religious classifications in his writings? They don't mean anything at all. Marcus Vernon suggests we “drop the use of all academic titles in your comments section” because they don’t mean much. Fair enough.

I feel sorry for all the hundreds of gods that have gone before and who are now ignored or forgotten. What did Oscar Wilde say about people talking about you? I don’t feel sorry for that Christian god-fella at all.

How dare you! Facts have no place in discussions about religion! (Other than the fact that any time FDOTM refers to Christians, the Greg Williams of this world start jumping up and down about how intolerant muslims are.)

These are important issues and Melissa does us a favour by keeping them on the agenda.

He/it/ His Canineship was commenting on a possible Fielding experience of Christianity. Fielding is being a twit about climate change. It's fair comment to allege that Fielding's religious experience may hold an element of twitishness too. First Dog wasn’t commenting on Christianity.
