Dawkins and Tony Benn

[CoxRox]

Shall we assume there are two main ideas about 'God'? The main one is that 'it' is a person/s albeit 'supernatural' (the 'God' of the three main Abrahamic Religions). The other belief (which I believe Einstein favoured) is of an impersonal force that holds together all the laws of the universe etc. Either way, if Dawkins were to 'wake up' and find himself in a far superior state of existence, amoung long departed relatives, I don't think He's going to be too worried which of the above applies but if it turned out to be a 'person' afterall, and this person really did have our best interests at heart- then no one could fail to be relieved. It's a silly conjecture really, but it was refreshing to hear Dawkins say he'd be delighted.
