Well, that's a start (although of course Chapman won't thank you for saying it)...this thread has been more productive than I expected TBH.

Isn't it nice when people just answer other people's questions? Everyone benefits.

> However, if he explicity denies it I will believe him.

I would say that is highly UNlikely. I used to think it was because he didn't want to lie as he believed that "God" would be pissed off with him. Now I think he just doesn't want to lie about LK because he knows most people would realise he was lying and so they'd trust him less in the future. The evidence suggests that he's quite prepared to lie about things when he believes that no-one "important" will be any the wiser.

I don't think he actually believes in "God", otherwise he wouldn't be so wilfully unpleasant, dishonest and self-serving...I think calling himself a Christian is just a ploy because he wants people to think he's a "good boy", and that's more important to him than some people thinking he's stupid for believing in "God" when there's no evidence for doing so.
