I am Italian. Mussolini was Italian. Mussolini was Fascist. I am a Fascist.
Who knew?

Might I point out a fact that should be obvious, that Galileo has done more to defeat his oppressors while dead than he could have by taking up arms while alive. If he had been a good boy and suppressed his publications, his ideas would have died with him, or at least been delayed.It's the soldier who secures our freedoms js, not the world of academia where the rate of military service is somewhat less than the dreaded creationists to put it mildly.

His economic views are leftist. I doubt his economic views approach anything close to marxism.

You think some of these people care what Dawkins says about President Bush? It doesn't even make a dent. Why should it? He's not a brilliant scientist because of his political views.

He's entitled to his views and so are you but FR is generally not too kind to lefties of Dawkins ilk. Evidently the evolution threads have evolved away from the stated goals of FR. Again, such is life.

You think some of these people care what Dawkins says about President Bush?I certainly don't care in the slightest about Dawkins' political views. I do, however, note whomever thinks that scientific validity is in any way contingent on one's regard for Bush, so that I might adjust my regard for them accordingly.

2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Thank you. Now it is up to people if they want to gamble that these scriptures are lies, or if they are the truth.

Dawkins might be the scum of the Earth for all I care, I am just pointing out that it is grossly inaccurate to label him a "Marxist".
To: balrog666
Why should it? He's not a brilliant scientist because of his political views.Because he rouses the lefty rebels in Europe with his anti Bush articles in the local Brit rags resulting in less support from Europe and more young Americans in harms way. Not too freaking brilliant from my point of view.
To: AntiGuv
Note this, I haven't mentioned science. My disdain for Dawkins and his fellow travelers has nothing to do with science. So note whatever you want.
To: RightWingNilla
Dawkins might be the scum of the Earth for all I care, I am just pointing out that it is grossly inaccurate to label him a "Marxist".That's your opinion. But lets explore it. Marx banned religion. Dawkins' writings on religion indicate that he would if he could. You agree so far?
To: jwalsh07
Marx banned religion. Marx was never involved in any government.

Marx banned religion. LOL. Do you know anything about Marx?
To: jwalsh07
Who do you consider "his fellow travellers" and more importantly what do you propose is the "dent" that should be made by "what Dawkins says about President Bush"?

Marx was never involved in any government. Thats your opinion. Marx was the king of Russia. You and your evo pals love the guy.
To: RightWingNilla
Hah! I know everything about Marx.
Marx was a keen student of Lenin. He taught Leninism to his brothers Chico, Zeppo, and Groucho. He pretended not to be able to talk.

Zeppo...he played guitar and sang that "Yellow Snow" song, right?
To: RightWingNilla
I think he invented a lighter.

LOL. Do you know anything about Marx?Enough. You think a poorly worded statement exonerates Dawkins from being a leftist, a marxist and Eurogarbage?
To: jwalsh07
Even if he's a stopped clock, he nailed you guys with this article.
