Me, too.
Dawkins proves he doesn’t “know” anything——his “faith” is bizarre and IRRATIONAL-—as all atheism is. It is MORE rational to believe in a Designer-—science proves Design 24/7..

Great website!
Dawkins is building a humongous fire for himself. Looney stuff like this illustrates that book learnin’ and WISDOM are in no way interlocked with each other. IMHO.
He is not exactly up there in the pantheon of great minds.
Who gives a shi...er...Obama what he thinks?
Funny thing is, L Ron Hubbard set out to create a religion, and he did it! And Jim Jones proved you can get people to do anything. Oh,and Joseph Smith’s Mormonism? It’s so common, it might be easy.
Richard Dawkins says that life on earth came from aliens.
Paraphrase from the following interview...
Aliens seeded the planet [earth.]
Possibly a designer from aliens, a higher intelligence, from elsewhere. From our molecules here on earth, we could probably find a signature of a designer from elsewhere in the universe.

Dawkins cohort Michael Ruse goes even further to say specifically that “one popular theory is that [life on earth] started of on the backs of crystals”

I had no idea Newkirk was so....
OOPS....no bullets...
(never mind). :-)
“Nobody knows who the four evangelists were, but they almost certainly never met Jesus personally. Much of what they wrote was in no sense an honest attempt at history.”
Dawkins is right here. The Gospels, like much of the Bible, are pseudepigraphic. The earliest writings date from at least 90 AD, making it VERY unlikely that they were eyewitnesses to any of it, and the Gospels are evangelism, not strictly history. They differ in their accounts because they’re written to spread the news of Jesus to different audiences. In some cases, the details of their accounts contradict each other.
That doesn’t make Dawkins’s larger argument correct; in fact, he’s a closed-minded, militant bigot whose argument makes absolutely no sense and is notable only for its volume.
But he is correct on this particular point.

Preaching atheists are as boring as anyone or anything God ever created.
Aside from the smug superiority and massive egos of hard core athiests I don’t understand their attacks on Christianity.
Why would they care if ‘we’ are wrong? If we die and ‘we’ are wrong, then we’re dead. If ‘they’ are wrong we face God and hopefully, get in to heaven. What is to lose and why would they care?
“Nobody knows who the four evangelists were, but they almost certainly never met Jesus personally. Much of what they wrote was in no sense an honest attempt at history. . . . The gospels are ancient fiction.†– Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion
John and Matthew most definitely knew Jesus as they were His disciples and later apostles.
Richard Dawkins is an idiot.
