15th July 2009

“Tony Blair seems to have fallen for some Lewis Carroll-type logical fallacy that runs something like this: I believe in God; people who believe in God are good; people who are good do not do wrong; therefore, what I do is good.”

Alexander Chancellor

    Blair is an idiot, sure. On the other hand, more than a few atheists seem to believe the same sort of logical fallacy: “I don’t believe in God; people who don’t believe in God are good; people who are good do not do wrong; therefore, what I do is good.”
