Humanists have all sorts of better reasons to denounce me and my positions and my actions on things than speaking about a contentious topic, and I couldn't care less.....but, personally, I don't think the topic I'm discussing is contentious at all.
The aha did what they wanted to do with their own prize. Dawkins did what he wanted to do with his own mouth. The world may not be the way we insist that it should be.
Dawkins didn't think his subject was contentious either.
He just considered it a matter of discussing the scientific evidence available regardless of popularity.
Yes, yes they did. Which opens up the question "Are they in the humanism business or the pandering business?"
Its a question worth asking because people will listen to what they insist the world will be, some organisations and people just seem to have that power.
So is the world they want a more humanist one... or more like an echo chamber?
