Ridiculous, totally ridiculous.

Can't keep a great man down.

Doesn't Chris Evans' show contain the multi-denominational, multi-faith 'pause for thought' section? My Dad listens to it... he's particularly fond of Catholic Father Brian D'arcy and I'm pretty sure he mentions Jesus regularly.

Maybe they banned this because Eliza Doolittle is shiyt.

Sounds like an awful song and an awful lyric.

I suppose it's a step up from Katy Perry feeling like a plastic bag.

We've had this discussion before - it's impossible to prove a negative. The burden of proof isn't with those that say there isn't a god, it's solely with those that say there is.

I suspect they've asked for the lyric to be changed for fear that it would offend Christians, to be honest. Expecting some sort of "How dare you wish you were our perfect little guy! He's a precious Jesus and you can't wish you were him or else! You can never compare to his awesomeness and god and stuff!" ...

Sounds pretty standard.

The reason for the change is, as usual at the bbc, fear of blame. Someone fears that they will get blamed for complaints and so to avoid this they ask for the change. There is no thought of anyone bar themselves. Selfish fear of blame.

The burden of proof only applies within a court of law. You can't apply it to every day discussions, it's ridiculous. No one has to prove themselves because you demand it because we have religious freedom in this country... which means I am free to worship in my own way, and you're free to do your own thing... or nothing.

This thread isn't a discussion about whether or not God exists, and trust the Atheists to drag it down to that.

Whereas if she was singing about the Muslims' "perfect little guy" we wouldn't be having this conversation because no one would dare contemplate playing a song like that... ever.

You don't have to believe. A modicum of respect for other people's right to believe wouldn't be too much to ask, I think. After all, I respect your right to rip the piss out of anything that doesn't fit in with you.
