An eye for an eye in human rights law : Comments
By David Palmer, published 23/1/2013I, as a religious person, find Marr's reference to those of religious faith as 'bigots' deeply offensive and insulting.

>>From close observation of David over many years my conclusion is that David 'has a problem' with christianity because his feelings of guilt surrounding anal sex were instilled as part of his education and the only way he can express the tension between his personal behaviour and his conditioned state is to repeatedly declare how 'bigoted' the church is<<
How do you feel about atheists in general?
Do you perhaps suspect that we are all homosexuals with feelings of guilt surrounding anal sex? If not, what possible relevance does Mr Marr's sexual life have to your conclusion? The psychological implications of your comment are pretty interesting, but you probably would not want to explore those right now, would you..
Mind you, I tend to think that attraction to religion in general tends to be infested with feelings of guilt - and let's face it, you have far more things to feel guilty about than the average atheist.
I recall in my youth finding a Catholic lad at my school in floods of tears because he had inadvertently eaten meat in the school canteen... on a Friday! Shock, horror.
Is that the kind of guilt you had in mind?
