      Libby Purves in The Times https://bit.ly/2N0Ybn4  says I “snarled” at Archbishop Rowan Williams for having “an imaginary friend.” I hope I never snarled at anyone, let alone the preternaturally nice Dr Williams. I’ve searched YouTube in vain for the incident. Can anyone help?

      Agreed. The Archbishop is a delightful fellow. We met at the Yale commencement this past spring.

          Look, there are peanty of things to attack her about. Leave her looks out of it. It's sexist and she has no control over it. You could say "she's a lazy journalist and her articles suck" instead.

          It's the truth fool. Objective facts r your friend. I reduced the woman to her appearance (or lack there of) because she was a prick lacking nuance and arguing in bad faith bs straw men. Not cool. Doesn't mean I wasn't being sexist bud.

          Atheists think they “know”? How self righteous. At least be agnostic, then illustrate the dark side of organized religion if you like, but don’t mess with spirituality!

          People who believe in a higher being don't care that you believe in nothing. To attack someone based on beliefs or lack of beliefs should be against the law! Oh wait there are laws and our country was founded in part because of them rights

          I think you would both enjoy studying Bart Ehrman. He is THE preeminent Bible scholar of our generation. Instead of eschewing christian scriptures, you could teach them to people in a new way. You can teach the scientific method to evidence. Apply it.https://youtu.be/2xH93PSZ6fQ
