If Christians can use their faith as a political argument, non-Christians can just as easily turn the tables and use that very same argument against them. It's something I've done countless times.

When I ask someone of faith to pick out which creation story in Genesis they believe out of the seven, that's me saying Christianity is bullshit. When I ask them about the tenents stated in Leviticus as an argument against a literal interpretation of the Bible and using faith to justify prejudice against gays, that's me saying Christianity is bullshit.

The difference between me and Nicholas is that I don't come right out and say "Christianity is bullshit" because I think it's a crass statement, but not an untrue one.

Seems to me the only thing Nicholas is guilty of is having the temerity to take on a thin-skinned moderator. And it's totally ridiculous that he should be "repentant" of that, as has been suggested.
Yes but the point here Bhall is you backed up your statements (quite well I might add ....making a valid argument...Nic did not...but he still should not have been banned...come on Beeble...
