children believe worms
To suggest that God specifically created a worm to torture small African children is blasphemy as far as I can see. The Archbishop of Canterbury doesn't believe that.
believe two historical
It's like saying that two and two equals four, but if you wish to believe it, it could also be five ... Evolution is not a theory; it is a fact, every bit as much as the historical fact that William the Conqueror landed in 1066.
liars believe motherhood
It is vital that there is a narrator figure whom people believe. That's why I never do commercials. If I started saying that margarine was the same as motherhood, people would think I was a liar.
believe people battle
Opponents say natural selection is not a theory supported by observation or experiment; that it is not based on fact; and that it cannot be proved. Well, no, you cannot prove the theory to people who won't believe in it any more than you can prove that the Battle of Hastings took place in 1066. However, we know the battle happened then, just as we know the course of evolution on earth unambiguously shows that Darwin was right.
believe believe-in-god
It never really occurred to me to believe in God.
real believe thinking
I believe the Abominable Snowman may be real. I think there may be something in that.
atheist believe butterfly
I don’t know [why we're here]. People sometimes say to me, ‘Why don’t you admit that the humming bird, the butterfly, the Bird of Paradise are proof of the wonderful things produced by Creation?’ And I always say, well, when you say that, you’ve also got to think of a little boy sitting on a river bank, like here, in West Africa, that’s got a little worm, a living organism, in his eye and boring through the eyeball and is slowly turning him blind. The Creator God that you believe in, presumably, also made that little worm. Now I personally find that difficult to accommodate…
believe mad growth
Anyone who believes in indefinite growth on a physically finite planet is either mad or an economist
anyone believe deserved people reach
How could anyone believe they actually deserved something like this? ... I can only think that it is because I have been able to reach so many people through television.
anyone believe deserved
How could anyone believe they actually deserved something like this?
clear course economists europe join north people reasons scotland themselves time wales yes
People say we have all got to join Europe for reasons which even the economists themselves aren't clear on-at the same time we're saying, well yes of course Scotland has got to be independent. And why don't we make Wales independent too? And the north of England.
far kids lived
We've lived here for 38 years. This is where our kids were born, and this is my place. As far as I'm concerned, if I can't have this, I don't want anything.
consequences fishing obvious policy transport
Here we are with even the most obvious things like a fishing policy or a transport policy-we know what the consequences are.
horses sea solution
You know, we could say yes, they were about to exterminate sea horses and now they aren't... But it isn't a solution to the world's problems.
