Who was Jesus then, naomi?

naomi, you have often said that you believe that Jesus existed but that he wasn't who his followers thought he was, or words to that effect. I have always had difficulty in understanding this. Many...

At least ten years ago I predicted that the EU common currency system would show its first crack early in the second decade of the 21st Century, when one of the PIIGS countries (Portugal, Italy,...

Is the AB censor an idiot?

On another site I tried to refer to the proper zoological name for mankind, which we all know is moho sapiens. But when I spelt that first word correctly (instead of using the anagram above) it was...

What would be the new clockwise?

This may be an old chestnut; I have certainly thought about it for years: If analogue clocks and watches, and all memory of them, disappeared, how would one define clockwise? Unlike north, south, east...

Do you know the most erotic statue in London?

I do, because the late and much-missed Alan Coren tells us in one of his pieces. He says that when he took Princess Michael of Kent to see it "her response was so earthy a giggle that grown men...

How does domestically-generated electricity reach the grid?

Solar panels produce d.c. Where and how is that converted to 50Hz a.c.? Assuming that wind turbines have alternators to produce a.c. how is the output maintained at 50Hz regardless of the speed of...

Why a loving God?

How did the idea come about that the Judaeo/Christian ‘God’ is a loving god? The atrocities committed against humanity in the OT by God have been well-rehearsed on this site, as have all...

Too many addressees

A question for Christians

We know that the God of the Old Testament is a monster. To list his crimes against humanity would take up too much space here, but they include ordering the wholesale slaughter of tribes ? men, women,...

Is AB's slowness putting you off too?

I notice that there have been only five posts to this site (six now) in the last ten days, and that this will be the first for three days. My own non-involvement for some time now has been because AB...
