Richard Dawkins VS Archbishop George Pell
#21
RE: Richard Dawkins VS Archbishop George Pell
I felt there was too much cheering for cardinal pell in the crowd during the Q and A episode.

Although Dawkins for all his flaws can communciate quite complex ideas such as evolution or the formation of the universe from "nothing" to "lay people". Dawkins certainly displayed it on Q and A. Dawkins is more of an asset for the atheist cause than a liability. Because many christians who dont accept evolution fear Dawkins, because of those abilities i have explained above.

I actually felt the cheering was just louder from a few individuals. Dawkins definitely started off shaky, he seemed tired, I think he did mention jetlag. However, once Pell started telling him what evolutionary biologists believe, I think that perked him up with an almighty WTF!

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?

Me? Probably exactly as I did before he turned up. Like his contemporary Hitchens, Dawkins is only a polemicist, albeit a good one.

He is irrelevant to my beliefs and behaviour. I am not a militant atheist and do not support atheist activism.
