But Dawkins' book is a wonderful introduction to atheism (although I'm sure there are many others) and I'm convinced he's right. I've been subjected to lots of philosophy at the hands of my English professors, and indeed much of it is insightful and beautifully written. I give the scientists the upper hand when it comes to being objectively correct, however.

I've basically been an atheist since early childhood, but Dawkins' book is the first I have read on the subject, in addition to plenty of Mormon history. I want to read The Believing Brain next, or maybe some Hitchens.

When it's politically advantageous for him Dawkins claims to be a "Cultural Christian" who loves to sing Christmas Carols. He's an atheist when he's writing and selling books about atheism and he's a Christian when he's campaigning for political office....




Not that's not what he meant at all.

he lives in a society where a lot of activities are Christian based Christmas, weddings etc. 

You can take part in those things but not believe the bullshit.

I myself have gone to christenings because they can be quite nice get togethers and they mean nothing outside of that.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
