Atomic theory doesn't mention God does it? So that makes it atheistic. The idea that all matter follows natural laws and is not guided by an intelligent hand is the basis of atheist philosophy.
Ok I have another one - the Atheistic Germ Theory of Disease. I think that if we just taught it objectively in the classroom then kids could make up their own minds. Im sure a lot more of them would prefer to believe that disease is caused by immorality. Why should atheist teachers force them to believe germs cause disease?
If you check my posts, I'm not talking about hard sciences: I believe this thread is responding to Dawkin's trivial application of science to his own desired outcomes.
Actually, a creationists would know that when Adam and Eve sinned, the whole earth was tainted by sin. This is why we have germs. Believing this does not mean one cannot be a physician, microbiologist, immunologist or any other scientists. Believing in atheistic evolution, theistic evolution, Intelligent Design or the literal Biblical creation account has NO bearing on hard science .
