He went on a talkshow, not long after the video was put up, and was explained all the definitions. But he stuck to his position. He said that the dictionary definitions are not the definitions we listen to anymore, and it is more of the negative connotations we do listen to.
The man has a job and a position to maintain.
Also, some people are not aware of the distinction between agnostic and atheist... I was scarcely aware of it before I read the god delusion.
In my mind, there was a 3 level deal:
- theist - believer
- agnostic - have no reason to believe, but won't say there's no such thing as a god
- atheist - there's no such thing as a god
Then I got educated.
