Do we agree that Dawkins is showing blind faith?

religion can't be educated out of us any more than sexual lust can be.

Dawkins does not show 'blind faith'

Religion can be shown to be wrong in many aspects, the problem with making the knockout blow is the constant shuffling of the goal posts, until we have a frodoesgue view of god where it CANNOT be proven by its very nature. Making for a very sneaky target.

Some people may be too stupid, others too stubborn yet others too deluded to accept science as a reasonable alternative to their god of choice but better education does limit the impact of myths. So I'm hopefull that the effects of religion can be mitigated world wide with better education.

By the way sexual desire can be educated out of you

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