Apple commented on Dan the anti-theist's blog post 'The truth about Easter and the Resurrection'"This probably isn't news to anyone here, and I wouldn't suggest trying to challenge Christians about Easter on Easter Sunday. They will be even less receptive than usual."
Dan the anti-theist posted a blog postThe truth about Easter and the Resurrection
For most Christians, Easter is the most important time of the year as it is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus – the basis of their religion.

Reggie commented on Dan the anti-theist's blog post 'The NHS in the U.S.- shouldn't Christians be supporting universal healthcare?'"Great post and echoes my sentiment.

Brian Colquhoun commented on Dan the anti-theist's blog post 'The NHS in the U.S.- shouldn't Christians be supporting universal healthcare?'"The thing most amusing about this is that the US has such a terrible poor health service when compared to the UK. Look at France - it has socialised medicine too, and isn't it pretty much the best in the world.
The thing we have to be careful…"

And do you accept that 98 per cent of DNA is shared… Continue
