"How interested are you in debating the other side of the argument with all those God-type folks?
Brian Cox: . . . The problem with today’s world is that everyone believes they have the right to express their opinion AND have others listen to it. The correct statement of individual rights is that everyone has the right to an opinion, but crucially, that opinion can be roundly ignored and even made fun of, particularly if it is demonstrably nonsense!"

the idea of 'god' is not preposterous in my opinion..I think its preposterous to to have 'it' proposed as a swirly bearded white man, when in fact 'it' may be nothing more than a big creature we happen to live inside. |

I believe everybody has the right to an opinion on anything and to be able to express that opinion to others.
I also believe that I have the right to piss myself laughing at the opinions of some, feel offended, bemused, confused and indifferent where I deem it appropriate.
In my opinion, of course!

"I'm quite surprised that Brian Cox said that....
Brian Cox just surprises me full stop."
With the lack of hard evidence in astronomy, it does tend to be quite opinionated, IMHO  |
