This guy is a piece of work. Now it was the *law* as given by Moses that set for the death penalty for specific law breaking. Christ said he came NOT to change one jot or tittle (Matthew 5:18) of the law that means the law is still in effect.The perfect whiff. Dawkins would appreciate the above, if he had the time and inclination to read it.
Dawkin's atheism has destroyed his ability to understand and know there is a right and a wrong.
The way I see it, either the Ultimate Reality is purely deterministic or it isn’t. If it isn’t, then intelligence is an implicit feature of ultimiate reality. If it isn’t deterministic, then whatever non-determinstic forces exist (impossible to imagine), they “chose” (what else would you call it?) to have the universe come to be the way it is.
Water doesn’t run uphill, and intelligence cannot come from non-intelligence. We are the product of something far beyond Dawkin’s hand waving attitude seems to allow for.
Energy, matter, intelligence. Rodgers and Hamerstein had it right when they wrote in the Sound of Music : “Nothing comes from nothing. Nothing ever could.”
