Just read this and was amused by czgibson always ready fluff responses to anything posted that doesn't agree with prejudices he convinced himself of apparently in his formative years for no amount of reading or research goes at all into his replies.
1- He understands Arabic grammar such as on the bee thread
2- He knows all about ibn rushd should you present an argument against the pope who banned his books
3- If all else fails it is you that must admit you didn't understand what was presented...
4- I won't even begin to touch the threads where he feigns understanding all about 'Natural selection'
stick with what you know cz, being an atheist doesn't make you a historian, a scientist, a psychiatrist and a linguist (at least as far as foreign languages are concerned).

Not sure why these atheists continue to get away with such platitudes what makes them so special and us so allowing?

I agree with you czgibson does act delusional.

The guy has specific issues with Isaac Newton's religiosity, since it appears to erode the foundations of his personal belief structure.

It's true to say Newton was a very religious man, but he was living in a time when modern science was in its infancy. If I had been alive then, pre-Enlightenment, pre-Darwin and at a time when atheism (or being suspected of atheism) was punished much more severely than it is now, I think that accepting theism would be a much more sensible course of action.

Perhaps that goes some way to explaining how someone who always tries to make out he is so lovey dovey and peaceful came in so aggressively on this thread.

Clearly this topic touched a raw nerve...... "Peace"......:statisfie

Will someone tell him we are talking about him so we can get some more of his trademark fluff on this thread.
 
Newton may have been a monotheist, but he didn't ascribe to any doctrine far as i know. He rejected the Catholic church, rejected Judaism and didn't even comment on Islam.

What's the point in spreading this documentary again? Maybe I'm missing something.

edit: newton did comment on the NT,

Commenting on the trinity, specifically 1 John 5:7 he wrote:

"Let them make good sense of it who are able. For my part, I can make none. If it be said that we are not to determine what is Scripture what not by our private judgments, I confess it in places not controverted, but in disputed places I love to take up with what I can best understand. It is the temper of the hot and superstitious art of mankind in matters of religion ever to be fond of mysteries, and for that reason to like best what they understand least. Such men may use the Apostle John as they please, but I have that honour for him as to believe that he wrote good sense and therefore take that to be his which is the best."

and commented on 1 Timothy 3:16

"In all the times of the hot and lasting Arian controversy it never came into play....they that read "God manifested in the flesh" think it one of the most obvious and pertinent texts for the business."

"The word Deity imports exercise of dominion over subordinate beings and the word God most frequently signifies Lord. Every lord is not God. The exercise of dominion in a spiritual being constitutes a God. If that dominion be real that being is the real God; if it be fictitious, a false God; if it be supreme, a supreme God."

taken from "A Historical Account of Two Notable Corruptions of Scripture."

thing is, I've seen the documentary when it aired on BBC, have posted it here on this forum and others - but for an altogether different purpose to yours... I still don't know why you have posted it.

What point are you trying to raise here?
