Richard Dawkins' Faith In Free Will Is As Blind As A Christians To God
#11
RE: Richard Dawkins' Faith In Free Will Is As Blind As A Christians To God
he may have never said the words 'i believe in free-will' but by saying we can choose to educate something as deep rooted as religion out of our biology is another way of saying 'i believe in free-will'. so dawkins, and anyone else with this belief, is showing blind faith.

sexual desire cannot be educated out of us. you can use the mind to repress it, but it's still there.

and yes 'stupid' people don't get athiesm, but that's exactly my point, no matter how good or right minded the teacher, this sort or lesson cannot be learnt if humans are too 'stupid' or narrow minded, and that's what many humans have evolved to be and always will be, so religion needs to be begrudgingly accepted by all.
and in regards to that link you sent me, it is written by a mad man. at one point is says 'sleepiness comes from false thoughts'. sleep is a weakness to be overcome? some buddhists are 'nanas.
