Reasoned argument doesn't seem to be one of your strongest points.

That the rest of the article is at odds with the headline merely underlines my point.

The headlines used are misleading. That is obvious.

Whether that is intentional or not is a moot point


I'm backing the person whose day job involves number-crunching and statistics.

Hmmmmm.
The 10 commandments, which are pretty much common sense for a large community to get along, are Old Testament/Judaism which is a long time before Jesus so not based on Christianity.


Not much peace love and understanding in the Bronze Age.

Edit; wait, did you just say the Old Testament is not Christian?

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

Well - that headline isn't wrong as such is it.

"The proportion of people who said they were Christian was 46.2%, down from 59.3% in the last census in 2011."

The article then goes on to clearly state in the very next paragraph:

"In contrast the number who said they had no religion increased to 37.2% of the population, up from a quarter."

As I said in my OP, the takeaway is that very third para in the article.


No, because the BBC only does accuracy.

Unlike the mail, express and torygraph.

You have blasphemed against the religion of Mumbo Jumbo.
You have desecrated the number 10 which is sacred to our religion and cannot be used so I pronounce fatwa on your sorry a*se.


Or the number 2, if you're non-binary..

You are the obsolete SRN4 to my Fairey Rotodyne....

Errr - No, I didn't.


Shouldn’t you have done? Isn’t the OT from from Judaism and not Christianity? Not something I know about (as no doubt you can tell).
