A Message for Richard Dawkins: Top atheisitc & evolutionary author
The British atheistic writer Richard Dawkins bills himself as the champion against religion and creation. Along with Sam Harris & Christopher Hitchens (now deceased) they were known as the "Unholy Trinity". Add Dennett to the list and they were known as the 4 horsemen of the anti-apocalypse.
One of the comments by Dawkins sums up his war-on-religion, especially Christianity- "...when one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion." Or his recent comments in a British interview "The Bible is a terrible moral compass..." Or "We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further."
A review of his book the God Delusion from the British newspaper the Guardian - " Dawkins is right to be not only angry but alarmed. Religions have the secular world running scared. This book is a clarion call to cower no longer. Primed by anger, redeemed by humour, it will, I trust, offend many." 11/22/06Or as stated in the Daily Telegraph - "So great is his loathing for religion that it sometimes overwhelms his reasoned argument." Or the New York Review of Books which said of Dawkins book - "None of Dawkins's loud pronouncements on God follows from any experiment or piece of data. It's just Dawkins talking." ---- That last book review is the closest to the truth about it
A message for the infidel Mr. Dawkins- ...for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God? 1 Samuel 17:26
