See if you can spot where the logic goes wrong
BHA: Here is a billboard with pictures of some children. Its message is: there's no such thing as a Christian child; or a Muslim child; or an atheist child. They're all just children, and should be allowed to grow up and choose for themselves.
Times and Telegraph: HAHAHAHAHA those children are Christians! lol you lose.

Hello!
Hey, thanks for coming! I'm Andrew, and this is where my headthinks come to breed. They often meander around humanism and photography, but they're flighty and you can't trust them, so anything is possible.
Do feel free to email me - I get lonely:
Your hair looks swish, by the way - have you done something new?

I feel sort of sorry for the newspapers when something like this happens. It looks almost exactly like a hypocrite being caught in a hilarious gaffe. That angle doesn’t exist, obviously, but it’d be a great story if it did, so they end up milking the superficial appearance of a scandal for all it’s worth while carefully avoiding saying anything that might encourage further analysis. Then people like Gerald Coates give content-free soundbites to hook their interests into the whole thing.
The problem is that I can’t for a second imagine a situation where a newspaper calls someone for a response quote and, having received it, say ‘oh, you’re right, this is a stupid story. I shall write about something else.’
