.@notanormie15, we are discussing beliefs which have explanatory power. The existence of Father Christmas, the Tooth fair, Russell's Teapot etc would not explain anything which is not thoroughly explicable by observed and recorded fact. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah @margaret23456 Beliefs are not a choice, could you just start believing in santa clause?

Hilarious .@indiechris71. Have you still not grasped that 'evdence' in matters which are unknowable means 'things which I am prepared to accept as evidence'. And that therefore you chose the evidence which suited what you had already decided to believe.People are so self-unaware. — PolitiTweet.org

.@guffynicola. There are exceptions, such as the amazing achievement that is Switzerland. But they are alas rare. Stalin drew up the borders of Soviet republics maliciously, with hostile minorities present to ensure that they would struggle to be nations. As we see. — PolitiTweet.org

@shhaun_hurchings . I think you miss my point. ‘Human rights’ are not an ‘idea’ but a post-Christian moral code employed to resolve disputes between people. Obviously they cannot claim to have a divine origin. So what are they based on, or is it just judges all the way down? — PolitiTweet.org

.@sesnn_trevor. What is the objective justification for human rights? Who chooses the protected categories and why? Why do they have any more force than the rules of Scrabble? — PolitiTweet.org
Sir Trev @swann_trevor
@ClarkeMicah @MailOnline Idiotic Hitchens’ comment. Of course there are human rights, as they are violated by so many in power.

@china_must. These are two wholly different questions. Choosing the theist explanation of the universe does not oblige you to accept *any* of the existing theist faiths. It simply makes it possible for you to do so. Obvious if you think. — PolitiTweet.org

.@theaetist. I still dispute the existence of rights. You can limit government and so maintain or increase your freedom. But the idea that there is any such thing as a 'right' is fanciful. AS for fighting, it is little use doing so alone. — PolitiTweet.org

.@clerysclock. Please give me an example of when and where you ever predicted what I would think. I am not a 'contrarian'. I take my positions on the basis of research, experience and thought, not to seek attention. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
Thank you .@spicypadthai. Of course we don't know what to think, unless we have been told and taught what to think. It's an opportunity. So much more satisfying to find out for yourself. That's why I've written all those books. — PolitiTweet.org

.@WanjiruNjoya Quite so (Thou it is 'Thou shalt do no murder'. ) . The 1689 Bill of Rights is a series of prohibitions on what government may do. So is the American copy of a century later. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah @Richard_Weiss62 Yes. Thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, etc.

.@composerstoo. I don't see why that should follow. Jonathan Sumption had left the Court at the time he criticised the Covid laws. Had he been on it, I doubt whether he could have spoken as he did. His intelligence and principles do not depend on his having been on the court. — PolitiTweet.org
