This is the unspeakable depths to which the British have sunk to. They will hail a Castro or Ahmadinejad but seek to harass a saintly theologian. Try it Mr. Dawkins and just see how Catholic Italy will treat you.

atheism on the march again, ping

[danieldu]

One other thought.. while leftist media outlets want the RC Church to confess and admits various sins, how about the atheists taking responsibility for the crimes committed by atheist governments; or for advocating eugenics. I am sure we could come up with a long list of crimes committed by those who hold the religion of Dawkins and Hitchens.

[texmexis best]

I suggest that Dawkins Google “Vatican Swiss Guard”.

The Dawkins Delusion.

[aruanan]

Atheist campaigner Richard Dawkins RICHARD DAWKINS, the atheist campaigner, is planning a legal ambush to have the Pope arrested during his state visit to Britain “for crimes against humanity”.

If Dawkins were really interested in going after religious leaders for "crimes against humanity" he'd be out there trying to bust imams. But, sadly, Dawkins doesn't give a crap for crimes against humanity if he's not able to use it to attack the one religion that threatens his emotional stability the most. After all, it's not Christianity that still tolerates slaves. Yes, Ricky, go up against the one religion that teaches its followers to turn the other cheek when struck. That's a whole lot safer than attacking Islam and winding up with a fatwa decreed against you for your atheism and your head separated from your body.

If Dawkins could get out of his chair to arrest the Pope, would it be declared a miracle?

[Zionist Conspirator]

RICHARD DAWKINS, the atheist campaigner, is planning a legal ambush to have the Pope arrested during his state visit to Britain “for crimes against humanity”.

Since Mr. Dawkins doesn't believe in G-d, he has no standards by which to determine what is or is not a "crime."

[Grunthor]

“The Pope was embroiled in new controversy this weekend over a letter he signed arguing that the “good of the universal church” should be considered against the defrocking of an American priest who committed sex offences against two boys.”

So.....”the church” and how it is viewed is more important than the virtue of young boys?

[kamikaze2000]

Yeah good luck with that Mr. Dawkins...

Sounds like this guy is writing checks with his mouth that his body can’t cash.

[windsorknot]

“for crimes against humanity”.

Even Joe Stalin, a card-carrying atheist, would approve.

[Lexinom]

Good. Can we also arrest on the same grounds (crimes against humanity) those who, like Dawkins, share the athropocentric worldview that resulted in the extermination of over 100 million human beings who dared to differ from his opinion?

[culpeper]

Its seriously time for some crusading. I might be getting old but I can still kick a$$.

I'm late to this thread - haven't read many comments yet. Another example of people who hate the Catholic Church and if they actually cared about homosexuals molesting youth they'd speak out about NAMBLA, Kevin Jennings, GLSEN, schoolteachers molesting kids, the homosexual agenda pushing homosexuals adopting and fostering children, etc etc etc.

But no, they target the Catholic Church only. Because despite its imperfections, it's holding to tight to traditional aka "real" moral absolutes.

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

Sigh, who to side with - a misotheist or a child molestation enabler.

I think I’ll just sit it out and let them have at each other.

[Bellflower]

These so call atheist are obviously God haters. They protest too much considering that if you are an atheist what matters anyway. I know as I use to be one.

[Bellflower]

Do you ever notice that these God haters almost always come after Christians or Jews when outlandishly horrific acts are constantly being carried out in the name of other Satanic religions. Because they are on the side of evil they let them go unnoticed. What hypocrites and cowards!

[Kevmo]

Half of me hopes he’d go through with it, just to see the spectacle. I wonder if the World Court would adjudicate such a dispute? Can the Pope counter-arrest Dawkins for something like promoting a false religion (scientism)? Maybe the pope is missing some good opportunities to educate & elucidate here by ignoring this gadfly.

[Little Ray]

I hope a Swiss Guardsman splits Dawkins from crown to navel with his halberd.

[ari-freedom]

“Richard Dawkins: I Will Arrest Pope Benedict XVI,”

sure, after we arrest all the secularists who support the murder of millions of unborn children.

[MarianoApologeticus]

May the Pope get that which is coming to him if he was complicit.
Now, is the outrage and call for arrest really coming from the very same Richard Dawkins who argues that some are merely “gentle pedophiles” and that too much is made of some cases of pedophilia???
