Did you read the exchange this morning? Did you see him deny it there? He can't deny it, because it was said a public post seen by many. All he can do is inform me that I was wrong in the assumption that he was a Christian minister, and declare that his faith is his business. Wouldn't you think he would, had he not said he was a minister, have mentioned that when I asked him what kind of minister he was? LOL. I would like it if he would deny it, actually. Which I assume that if he went to the trouble of having it deleted (I don't know whether he has or not), he could do if he wanted. But it would leave us with a situation in which CH had fooled you and yours into making a claim he hadn't done something he most assuredly did. There would be something symbolically satisfying about such a development. You seem to be becoming unhinged, btw. And you and JLA seem to be in a frenzy of hate quite unbecoming to the season. I would feel bad if I were you guys, too, though, so you are forgiven. I don't know what "the word of others" you are referring to. Such matters are not settled generically, in any case. Some words of others are credible, others not. On SI, there is such a good record, often it is not necessary to take anyone's word for anything. But feel free not to take my word regarding CH's description of himself on IHub as a minister. Let's see what CH says about it, though what he's said should be enough, I would think. Or hasn't said. Anyway, I can't lose. If he now says he didn't say it, it will be almost more fun to see you all believe him than if he acknowledges it. And it would be silly, in any case, for him to deny it. He has no idea who has what saved on their computer, lol, and in addition, his responses here today would seem a bit, well... mysterious. I take it from this that you and his other friends know no more than I do about what kind of minister he is. That is really odd. I hope you have it clear that my opinion of Christopher now is not that he is a money-grubbing Christian minister, but that he is a crime-fighting minister of unknown denomination, possibly a member of the British Cabinet.
