The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason.

Benjamin Franklin

Thats awesome.

[NDiddy]

It's been suggested that if the supernaturalists really had the powers they claim, they'd win the lottery every week. I prefer to point out that they could also win a Nobel Prize for discovering fundamental physical forces hitherto unknown to science. Either way, why are they wasting their talents doing party turns on television?
Richard Dawkins

"Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence."

The only religion I have little respect for is militant atheism.  If I ever met Richard Dawkins, I would spit in his face.

Hes not a militant atheist hes a scientist.

I would take a miltant atheist over a christian/islamic fundamentalist any day.

[SFS]

Hes not a militant atheist hes a scientist.

...no.  He is pretty militant about his atheism.  That makes him a militant atheist.  I don't know an easier way to explain it.  and that has nothing to do with him being a scientist.  There were plenty of scientists throughout history that were very religious.

Personally, I'm a big believer that science and technology are the single most important things.  Ever.  But religions have, still and will play a crucial part in cultural stability both on micro and macro levels.  I certainly wouldn't like to live in a world without them.

Richard Dawkins comes off as having the chip on his shoulder making his decisions, instead working around it.

Are you saying you should torture me or did I say that at some point?

You said it towards me I think you were defending the US using torture for some reason I thought it was funny.

[The Metamorphosing Leon]
