Man, Dawkins surely outdid himself this time. Yea, if only Jesus Christ in his all-powerful and all-knowing state 2,000 years ago would have grasped what Richard Dawkins and his fellow enlightened post-modernists knew today, by golly, he would have denied Himself and His Father on the spot.

Meglomania has never had such a tough opponent.

Dawkins will soon be able to offer his learned opinions to Jesus Himself. Should be an interesting meeting.

“In the beginning, the Word [that would be Jesus, the only begotten Son of God] was with God, and the Word WAS God.”

Dawkins’ claim is just bizarre. I guess “intellectuals” can say pretty much anything and get away with it.

“But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD”. And, I suppose, ignore Dawkins.

The man is a genius. /S

Should be interesting to read some more quotes as he ages, he sounded as if in the early stages of dementia last time I heard him speak.

Dawkins is a brilliant scientist, an articulate speaker, and a strong writer, but as a visionary, he lacks imagination. I was listening to him on “Start the Week” and he seems to be unable to grasp that there are things that we don't know that we don't know.

Richard Dawkins: "Jesus Would Have Been An Atheist If He Had Known What We Know Today" Thought Like Me."

So, should we boycott Family Feud, or what?

I dunno ... Dawkins has made up this scenario about Jesus, which shows he has a terrific imagination.

That is the most ridiculous anti-Christian statement I’ve ever read. Really? The son of God would not belive in himself? Wow. Just wow.

Dawkins has decided that he is the center of his own universe.

Jesus would not change his faith knowing what we know today.

But, I think some of our countrymen who have gone before us might reconsider what they were fighting for given what America has become today.
