Who lets you out of the attic at night?
Is this a contest? Should I say "your mother after she services me" or something similar?
It seems to me that Dawkins is attacking the invocation of God as a substitute for, and an excuse not to engage in, rational scientific inquiry and analysis. His crack about God's gift to Kansas was a sarcastic jibe at this mindset. I don't see anything in his screed that is anti religion, or anti God. Are you giving him a bum rap, or am I missing something?
