However, he does makes a lame claim that “billions” of people hold to his definition(s) of faith. Yes, he said billions. Does Boghossian have any evidence that billions of people agree with his definitions? No. (Of course, if this were indeed true, then one would expect to see Boghossian’s definition at least being mentioned in the OED.) In fact, he fails in the interview to provide one example of a Christian (or anybody else) who accepts the definitions that he presents. Moreover, he ignores the fact that McGrew cites the OED and multiple practical examples to illumine the definition he provides.
What an ironic picture that Boghossian talks dismissively about faith while claiming to exalt evidence, and yet he shows absolutely no interest in providing any evidence to support his ridiculous definitions. All he does is repeatedly insist that he’s right. Alas, hearing Boghossian talk about “evidence” is like hearing Justin Bieber talk about responsibility. The man clearly hasn’t a clue.
