I am a science enthusiast, empiricist and septuagenarian sociophobe.
I value free expression and feel strongly that false and dangerous ideas must be challenged.

Every time I go to the hospital there is a different doctor. So far I have seen Dr. Avaricious and Dr Greedy. Next week I am due to see the one with a very long name;

I was very glad to see the assisted dying bill got through the Commons this afternoon. Now we watch the unelected House Of Lords delay it and mess things up.

I’ve just written to my MP to ask them to support assisted dying. I just can’t face the idea that some people will suffer at the end of their lives without choice, compassion or dignity. Please write to your MP today. #AssistedDyingBill humanists.uk/action/suppo...

Atheophobia is a real phenomenon that is practised by clerics and teachers in churches and faith schools throughout the UK. It is a form of hate speech practised as part of the religious indoctrination suffered by many of our children.

It is about time Lennox came under the scrutiny of people with the gravitas to put him in his place. He has one argument: he does not understand something so his god did it.
John Lennox can be seen as a clasifical case of the Dr Fox Effect: someone very appealing, friendly, and more. It is a sort of Hallo effect applied to scientists.

I agree with his conclusion that we need to urge a reform of Islam. This is urgent in the UK as it seems to me they have an agenda that goes against our best interests.
