You atheists still arguing on this thread are defending the proposition that 90% (and I am being generous to your side with that estimate) 90% of all the people who lived in the history of the world are delusional.

90% eh? Where does that come from? It was three billion yesterday! In any case, where did they get their belief from exactly? They were told it by parents and men of the cloth. Told what to believe. The only variations were those brought about by accident of place of birth.

I have said that it is a rational belief because it is beneficial to the individual. I have said that I know this from personal experience because I have experienced it. The fact that I experience this benefit is evidence

We've already been here. It wasn't rational because you had to have the belief already in place before you knew what benefits might accrue. You had to guess and hope. Irrational.

Obviously, if you have related the story accurately, the interviewer saw it as necessary. He was making the decision.

Well, I was there and you weren't. There's nowhere else to go on this one.

He also has made it clear that he doesn't want to talk about it.

Talk about what? I'll talk about anything. You start...

It is clear that he is trying to wind people up and get them to post angrily. He actually said that to me.

Of course I didn't. Stooping to untruths in unworthy of you, Jacko.
